I'm facing a little bit of a life crisis and trying to focus on my career. The last 6 months haven't been the most focused. Here are a couple of open opportunities I'm working on: 1. Growth consultant at Codegpt: I make $3k/month setting up PLG systems and enabling their growth operations. 2. Head of growth at Questionbase: I agreed to work for free, and they might be able to offer me a $120k/year salary + equity in March (5 months away). 3. UX consultant at Appic: I earn $2k/month doing wireframes and designs. 4. Growth partner at Ionfusion: We outsource sales reps from overseas. (My role is to close deals and run strategy & finance). I need more sales consultants to partner with to grow this business. 5. Podcast host of a growth podcast: This is where I selfishly grow my personal brand and growth knowledge. Given these opportunities, how should I prioritize my focus to achieve the best results?
Should I prioritize staying in a safe, high-upside role in someone else's company or take the risk of leaving to build something of my own, even though I don't yet know what that is? This question is based on the insights from the episode Count Your Wins (Who Knew In The Moment) and the clip Career Acceleration Insights.
