The pros and cons list isn't helping. Every pro has a con. Every con has a counter-argument. Nothing is settling it.
The safe choice feels like settling
You know what happens if you play it safe. And safe feels like slow death. But the risk feels like jumping off a cliff.
The risky choice feels like gambling
Nobody can promise it'll work. And the thought of failing at something you chose makes it worse than a failure you inherited.
You keep asking people what they'd do
But everyone gives different answers. And deep down, you know their answer doesn't matter. It's your life.
Why you're stuck
Every risk has two costs: the cost of taking it and the cost of not. You're so focused on what could go wrong that you can't see what staying safe is already costing you. The regret of never trying might hurt more than the cost of failure.
"Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate."
— Carl Jung
