1. Pick up some contract work - you can easily turn 6 mths into 12 mths, and then 2 years, then 3...no matter how many projects fail to get off the ground, if you have a bit of side income, it'll help in the long run.
2. Don't ever forget why you quit - if that is to "pursue your dreams, not an income". Write it on a wall above your monitors and don't ever forget it.

If I have two pieces of advice I can share,
1. Pick up some contract work - you can easily turn 6 mths into 12 mths, and then 2 years, then 3...no matter how many projects fail to get off the ground, if you have a bit of side income, it'll help in the long run.
2. Don't ever forget why you quit - if that is to "pursue your dreams, not an income". Write it on a wall above your monitors and don't ever forget it.
EDIT: Oh, and good luck! :)
Be careful with contract work though, it's very easy to fall into the trap of taking on too much and pushing back your own project...
Contract work can be worse golden handcuffs than a job in corporate
It beats personal bankruptcy hands down though.
