Generally speaking, down markets are an excellent time to be an entrepreneur. Instead of getting paid a fixed wage, you actually determine your success.
More importantly, the more value you bring the more success you will have.
In an employee/employer situation, the more value you bring, you *might* get a raise or promotion... and in a down economy, you'll often be asked to work more (and sometimes for less).
Even good employees can get laid off in down markets, so any job security people believe they have is almost always an illusion.
Once you see that you're leaving the illusion of job security, and instead pursuing a path in which the value you bring to others determines your income... it's clear to see that you're choosing the path with MORE security.
Maybe not at first. The "steady paycheck" sure is nice... but once you're up and going, you'll most likely experience more security, abundance, and freedom than you're accustomed to right now.
