Since I got the offer from that company, I'm feeling pulled in both directions. Because I know there's another chance later this month. Which opportunity should I take and should I pass up? Each job has compelling sides. The first one, I already got the offer. I'm afraid I might be complacent. I'll be learning so much from the leader directly, although it'll take some time to be able to be fend for myself. One thing I can be sure is this has nothing on other potential opportunities I could get in the future, but they're elusive and I can't be sure for now. And horrible work life balance is detrimental to my mental health, so I shouldn't put it on the back burner to take care of it. Just your pinnacle is coming. Just find a team that value growth and solidarity, don't overwhelmed, and don't let the chance underwhelm you. It's okay to make mistakes, you can live them down. If you need my hand, you can get hold of me. Don't be short with people though. Some might garner attention and some may not.
