That is exactly what I did 32 years ago. I started a biotech company and kept it running for 27 years. I'm now retired but the company lives on. Best decision I ever made.

15 years ago I left an industry that I had been in for 35 years, to start my own Property Management business in the Kennebunks. Great move!

Being your own boss sounds great! Understand that the sleepless nights, personal financial risk, and the expanded responsibilities are all worth it. Get ready for the government to tax you at every opportunity. If you are an S-Corp you won't be getting the Gov. Mills stimulus check, and you will get to keep a fraction of what you make, and then they will take a huge portion when you sell. The government will take almost everything you make when all is said and done.
