Having been in a similar position myself, I understand how hard it can be to let go of either the one or the other. I would suggest you cut down on your hours at work (your steady job), and spend this gained freedom on something which relaxes you and which does not involve a computer or TV. For example walks, bathing, reading fiction, or some other hobby. Since your side projects generate an income this shouldn’t hurt you too much financially, and as your business grow you can cut back more hours from your day job in time.

For me, I had to take a different approach and dropped something I really cared about. But two years on I can say it was the right decision. Putting too much strain on yourself will only end badly, so I’m happy to hear you are attempting to take steps to prevent that.

Best of luck!
