#3639·Tyler MillsOP, 6 days agoOption 2: Go on hiatus from the day job/career, and focus on creative pursuits and research, full-time, for some number of months (duration perhaps depending on job opportunities).
Have you fully used your cash to free time/energy after work?
You may have money for laundry services, cleaning, cooking, and so on. All the other things that take time in your day can be removed with money, giving you space to do research just fine
#3638·Tyler MillsOP, 6 days agoOption 1: Continue working the day job and balancing the other pursuits on the side.
Leaving the job means more time for research. It also means more time to find a much better job that allows you the energy for research.
Leaving gives space for better balance.
#3638·Tyler MillsOP, 6 days agoOption 1: Continue working the day job and balancing the other pursuits on the side.
How much time and energy do you really have for research while working? 1hr daily? 2 hours daily? 4 hours daily?
Leaving your job allows for the possibility of consistent high quality research daily.

Consider your current balance of working and research.
Could you cut other activities, keep the job, and increase focus on research?
