A bit of a tangent but it still applies. We tend to think of alternatives in aggregate. "If I didn't work this job I could start that business, go back to school and still have more free time." We take the best parts of all our options and lump them into one big fat unrealistic alternative.    We don't see that we don't know how to run a business, going back to school would just be starting over, and there's no real reason why we would actually have more free time. It's an important realization to have.  "If you're tired of starting over, stop giving up," the ever-wise Shia LeBouf said.  If you're doing something, you're further along on it than anything else you might try. Instead of changing course, double down. It's the same thing with guitars, even the resonator variety.  Maybe the single cone holds everything I think I'm missing, maybe it's the pickup. Or the OM, or the dreadnaught. Round and round we go.  Instead of chasing, double down.
