Torn between working full-time and creating an online income

I', sure that a lot of you guys have had this same frustration when you have a full time job, and you are also trying to create your internet business, and you feel like you have no time.

Right now I am working on a couple of websites. I have a full time job and i just went from working 5 days to having to work 6 days. I can't go part-time until july, because that is when i will be in my position for a year.

Anyways it feels like my job is keeping me from being able to build this online empire. I have everything planned out and i am in the "building" phase, but I can't get everything done because of work. I thought full time was 40 horus a week, but apparently its more like 60 or more, so now I feel stuck at a job that I hate, and doesn't allow me to do anything else.

I am a single mom, so I have to work for my son, but this is really too much work. I have a house in Mexico, because that is where I am originally from, so I may just move back to mexico to solve this problem. I would't have to pay for rent, just my bills, and that is a huge weight off my back.

So my plan is to quit my job, and go to Mexico for 5 months, finish school, spend time with my son, and build my online business. I have money saved and everything, and I am planning this out.

I hope that during 5 months I can figure something out, and I intend to hang out on here as much as I can so I can learn and grow, and hopefully move back to the united states and either not have to work, or get a very part-time job, until I really get going.

My real goal is to create multiple incomes online, and NOT HAVE A JOB! This is NOT the amercian dream, and if it is I don't want it!

Anyways I'm done, I just had to vent, thanks.

    I went freelance 10yrs ago, but started when I had a real time full time + job, when I built a portfolio and had a stream of clients I went part time for 3 months, then left totally.
    I would never recommend anyone quitting a job to make a go of it online full time unless they have the income to live on for 5months. Don't base anything on what is possible, but what is actually in front of you. having hopes and goals are a wonderful ting and keep us all going, but bottom line is your real life responsibilities first.
    you know what, before you know it, you will be there. full time, working from home.
    Another problem I think many have is they start with the mindset, I don't want to work for a living, anything worth time will take an investment of one thing or another, whether it is time or money.the most successful people are not the ones that do nothing, but wisely invest their time and resources!
    follow that dream for sure!
