You didn't change your mind. You got scared

I have no interest in telling someone with no savings to quit their job tomorrow. Or telling a parent to gamble the rent because some loud prick on the internet said comfort was a disease. Some risks are badly priced. Some opportunities are genuinely terrible. Some exits need preparation. But preparation should change something you can point to. Money set aside. A skill practised. An application sent. A conversation had. A date chosen to look at the decision again.
