Should I leave my job?
Compare stability, opportunity cost, runway, reversibility, identity, and likely regret.
Career decision tool
Use better frames for career choices that feel too big for a gut check.
Career decisions usually mix money, identity, risk, relationships, timing, and regret. DecisionFrames applies multiple frameworks so you can see the tradeoffs before you quit, stay, pivot, negotiate, start something, or wait.
Career questions DecisionFrames is built for
Should I start my own thing?
Use risk, runway, lean-startup tests, customer value, and pre-mortem thinking before overcommitting.
Should I ask for more?
Separate fear from evidence, clarify leverage, and identify the first conversation to have.
Which path fits who I am becoming?
Bring values alignment, regret minimization, identity, and opportunity cost into one answer.
Useful frameworks for career decisions
- Regret minimization: which choice is future-you most likely to respect?
- Opportunity cost: what does each path quietly displace?
- Reversibility test: can you run a smaller experiment before a one-way door?
- Values alignment: does this path serve the life you are trying to build?
- Pre-mortem: if this fails, what most likely caused the failure?
