Have you ever quit a job or other secure situation to pursue a passion project/mission that’s NOT a startup, and is more than just going free-agent for generic higher freedom? If so: what did you quit, when, and to pursue what passion?

So many times, but what is an example of not a startup but not free-agent for generic higher freedom? I quit a very nice position producing video for a land developer in TX to move to NYC and attend , with the goal of somehow becoming involved in the nyc arts and tech scene

Thinking about the Bob Dylan lyric “using ideas as/my maaaaaaps”, from “My Back Pages”, which itself is kind of an abstract, disjointed narrative of a young man’s passion mission and a paean to PMs/a flex. If only VCs would try to incorporate a little bit of poetry 🤔😂
