The main thing is to decide! In one quick motion! Quit tomorrow! Live day and night on the floor of the workshop or in the office until the first clients appear…
Familiar intonation and expressions, right?
At the same time, if everything is fine with you at the present moment, you don’t want to change it harshly and abruptly. Now it is [normal]. What will happen next is [not clear] and, most importantly, it is not clear if it will be so good later (and how much time this “later” will take), so that it is worth giving up what is [normal] now.
Of course, to get different results, you need to try other actions. Let’s take a specific example: you are now an engineer, analyst, tester, programmer, or even lead someone on technical issues. You feel fine here, because you know how to solve 80% of the problems that you face, and for the remaining 20% there is time to dig into and come up with a solution.
Would it be interesting to become a team lead / team manager? New tasks: interviewing, hiring, setting and controlling tasks, monitoring the state of other team members – it sounds interesting, but how can I understand whether I will want to do this if it becomes my responsibility?
Quit everything! Get up and go! Deny the vital? 🙂 Why should I – I am [normal] now and I have been going to this state and these results for some time. Why should I quit? What will happen to my accumulated technical expertise?
Three simple ideas:
What to do to try it safely?
“Start trying safely” – yeah, thanks, Captain, you haven’t been seen for quite a while 🙂
Start with learning.
As you learn new skills, you don’t have to “jump with a parachute” first and learn while flying towards the ground. You try to “pack the parachute” and make the “first jumps” from the training height in the jumping hall, where you will be taught how to tuck your legs and not “screw up”. If in the process of learning you realize that this is not interesting to you, you understand it before you board the plane together with your friends and start feeling uncomfortable to refuse and cancel this jumping madness.
You do not “screw up at work”, you do not let the manager and the team down. You are not compromising your current [normal] state. You study calmly and if you have always been stopped by the need of making a Big Harsh Step to trigger changes, be aware that the best changes don’t always start with dashes and hyper-efforts. If you enjoyed the process, you are more likely to apply what you have learned to get the same satisfaction from the tasks over and over again.
