"But what if I don't like it outside #academia?" It is possible you will not like it outside academia. If that happens, here's some perspective: 1 - you could go back. Is it easy? No. Possible? Yes. 2 - you will not go back empty. You have experiences to take back.

Being laid off from a #postdoc, and then being let go from a company because I wasn't "learning" quickly enough for them, taught me an important lesson👇🏾 Create your own career insurance, because nobody has your back. It is not pessimistic of you to think this way. It's wise.
