Personally I have travelled down this road. When I left my high paying , beneficial, amazing bosses and work colleague environment job ; I literally took a leap of faith to follow my passion and create the life I thrived for.

Very simple to adapt write down where you see yourself and what are some actions you can make in those year spans to achieve your goals. Once you figure it out, make moves ; phone calls reach out to people, use social media (its free advertisement) do daily tasks and habits that will bring you closer to your long term goals.
