All the paths are going to be hard.
Opting out of your current set of problems might give a day or two of release but if you want to do meaningful work and have meaningful relationships it’s going to be hard and there are going to be problems.
It’s foolish to make the decision based on which path is going to be easiest…because there’s no way to know and both are going to be hard.
The better questions are…
Which path will I be proud of walking…regardless of ultimate outcome?
What do I want to build?
What do I want my life to look and feel like?
And how might this path take me there?
The perfect path isn’t perfect at all. If all goes well, the perfect path entails exchanging one set of problems for another as you (and your work) grow and evolve with the people around you heading in the same direction.
