When is the right time to quit my job?

So I have been on here for a few months now and have been getting plenty of good advice. I have been a server and bartender in fine dining restaurants for the past few years. While working nights has been paying the bills, I feel like it is hindering me as most calls come on nights and weekends. The past few years I have been making about 45-50k a year. I have done a couple small deals and  been able to save up enough money to live for 6 months. I like the security of working my job and having income coming in, but I also feel like it is holding me back in my investing career. I don't have any buy and holds, so when I don't work I have no income coming in. My question is how do you know when the time is right to quit your job and go full time?
