Consulting is a great Plan B but a terrible Plan A. The healthiest way to enter consulting as a calling is by crashing comically (but not tragically or ignominously) out of a Plan A. Tragic failure makes you poisonous to others' efforts even if you sincerely intend to help.

If you're left with a narcisstic wound and a burning residual desire for redemption instead of "well I took my best swing at it", it's tragic. Most with any talent for consulting at all are self-aware enough to make this judgment.
