It is hard. And I don't know how to do it. I also have strugle with this. I was raised near the iron curtain so I understand this context. When I was leaving the job at state institution to go to freelancing a lot of people were like "Are you crazy? Leaving the job that you will have for rest of your life?"

Every job change was a challenge and stressful. You never know where will it lead. Did you miss out on something by leaving the job?

You know what works best for me? I try to leave by "There are no wrong choices. There is only life after the choice".
