Keep working your day job. If you have an idea that gets traction eventually you will be able to make the switch.
It will take years. It will be really hard and you will question whether it was worth it.
Don't quit your job. Figure out how to build a manageable project / business you can have full control over. For me this is more important than profitability, and my day job keeps the bills paid.
Staying in the corporate environment will irreparably damage your spirit worse than your feared repetitional suffering for taking risks. People won't respect the slow hustle either, but it's sustainable not sexy so don't be surprised when people don't get it. I don't know if it will be worth it but it's the path I'm on right now and it allows me to accept myself and my situation instead of fighting it and stressing out.

Find a side hustle you can put sweat equity into.
