It's probably best to start by offering your services to people
you already know (and who know you and your capabilities).  If
they seem underwhelmed by the concept, this might be a hint that
you're not yet ready.  If they like the idea, then you're almost
set.

You also need at least two partners to work with.  Making all
the decisions all on your own is pretty daunting (and really
easy to get seriously wrong) when this is all new to you.

It's not for everyone, but the people who make a go of it mostly
find it pretty rewarding and tend to stick at it.  I quit my
last real job one Monday in 1975 and have never regretted it.
