Who This Is For
People considering a professional shift and wanting a written report before acting.
Clarify a career change that feels overdue but still carries risk through David's private written method.
Working Distinctions
The private question
A career change often begins as irritation before it becomes a clear path. The written format gives the question enough room to be handled without performance, interruption, or public explanation.
What I would look for
I would look for whether the old path is finished or simply needs correction, then test that against timing, ordinary facts, and the decision that is actually in front of you.
How to ask it in writing
Send current work, proposed path, training or money constraints, and what keeps repeating. Keep the request plain. The work is cleaner when the facts are separated from fear, hope, and interpretation.
What I would not claim
The report will not pretend that calling removes practical consequences. A useful report gives you a readable pattern and a next step, not a theatrical certainty claim.
Before You Send the Request
- Name the situation in one sentence.
- Send current work, proposed path, training or money constraints, and what keeps repeating.
- Say whether the decision is whether to train, search, pivot slowly, stay temporarily, or leave a field.
- Separate facts from interpretation.
- Do not send private material that is not needed for the reading.

- What decision is mine to make around whether to train, search, pivot slowly, stay temporarily, or leave a field?
