The biggest risk I’d like to take but haven’t been able to is probably quitting my job. Quitting a job is a complex matter. The concern is not just economical, but also mental. Both my parents are the first generation in their family to probably raise the social class and live on a salary, not just uncertain income. They always insist on living a “certain” life. To them, “certain” means not having to worry about where your money would come from and whether you’d be laid off, which translates to government jobs.
I’d like to bet on myself. Switching careers to truly being a professional. Maybe a consultant. Or work for a private company as an expert hire. Albeit young, I have the qualification. However, experience wise, people might see me lacking (even though I’ve worked many difficult cases).
I’m afraid of betting on myself, so I don’t think I’ve ever really tried. It seems like the safest option is to just stay, grinding in an environment I despise, and just build my capital.
Maybe that isn’t bad?
