About my current job

My current job is taking my time, it's affecting my good health and the salary can't pay my bills. It doesn't allow me to have time for other things I do like photography and poultry. But now I think I need to be self-sufficient and I need transitioning capital for it. My question is ; am I on the right track?

I mean everyone questions themselves about this question a lot but The main concern should be your health and wealth. If the job that you are doing do not provide either of those then definitely you need to think of either similar role in different company which pays you well or change your career into something that allows to earn well amount of wealth while maintaining a good health.

If you need transition capital, yet your current job isn't even paying your bills, I think the answer is "no".

you definitely need to change your job if it is impacting your health and you are struggling paying bills. Once you have done this then look at saving money to help you achieve your dreams. Good luck😀
Chase those poultry dreams.

You can't be on the right track, if you can't pay your livelyhood with the bills you earn and you feel sick. Health comes first, wealth as next. You need definetely a new change, if both is bad for you.

I would definitely pivot and find another job.

Another job in terms of another employer, I agree. Another job with another requirements in a different profession seems to be more difficult to realise.

Your current job is not good nor for your health neither for your pocket. You should be looking for a different job.
Do you take pictures of chickens?
