Start Real Estate Full Time and Quit My Job?

I wanted to reach out to everyone in this forum for some advice. A little background on me is that I am a self taught software programmer and have been doing it for over 4 years. However, over the past year I've realized that I just don't have a passion for it and the only reason I'm still in it is because it pays well. However, I'm very passionate about real estate, I've passed my exam and I am currently talking with different real estate agencies. I've now come to the point where I have to make a decision: go full time RE and quit my job or have to work my current job while trying make PT RE work.

Has anyone else quit their job and just jumped straight into RE?

Or did you first try to do it part time before making the jump? 

I'd love to hear anyones feedback on part time vs full time!

Thanks!
