Should I continue?

Hello Chaps and Chapettes

Would you be so kind as to give my some advice. I'm 31, I've been chasing the dream of being a commercial pilot for years, but due to finances and setbacks its been a slow process. I'm not interested in the jets, more the props and corporate flying. I am currently on Bristol Groundschools distance learning course but haven't studied for a while due to personal issues and a new job. Also my PPL has lapsed 2 years ago so I need to do the skills test again. I have 160 hours and a night rating. I'm also in a bit of debt. Slightly higher than the norm.

Should I slowly continue with my training and follow my passion while still working at my reasonable paid job and get into further debt with a CPL/IR?
Or should I just quit and settle for where I am. (Which doesn't make me happy!)

All advice gratefully received.

Thank you
