The work decision you have been avoiding is not really about the practical choice in front of you. It is about whether you are willing to make a move that other people will have opinions about, strong ones, and whether their certainty about what you should do matters more than your own uncertainty about what you want to do. You have been treating their potential reactions as information when they are just noise. The decision itself is smaller than the drama you have built around making it publicly. What you actually need to choose can be chosen quietly, without an audience, and probably should be.
