Quitting and becoming a full time Realtor?

[Jake Davis]

Without taking COVID-19 into account, what things would you recommend a new real estate agent to do if they were looking to quit their current full time job to purse real estate. I have my license but have yet to hang it with a broker yet. The biggest issue is my current job doesn't really allow me to be an agent. I work 50 hours a week and I don't typically have the flexibility to do be able to do both efficiently.  

As the title states, what would you recommend for a new agent to do if they were considering quitting their field to become a realtor full time?
