Getting cold feet about turning in my notice. Recently got an offer from a company for a role I’ve been super curious about. My current role is good - pay-wise, manager & team-wise, etc - but I’m really tired of the daily grind of my current job function. I’ve been here for only 4 months so I’m afraid I’m making a mistake leaving a good opportunity for something so unknown and career pivot and sooo new to me (plus it’s a startup, so less stable than current job). What should I do?

Pro and con list has never failed me before. Is the offer better than what you already have? Maybe write out your thoughts on why you’re afraid to make the leap. But also, if you’re already burnt out at 4 months, I can’t imagine it getting better unless there’s good benefits that include covered mental health breaks of some sort.
