If your current job situation isn’t what you had envisioned for your career, you’re not alone—after all, more than half of Americans report being unhappy at work. That said, it’s entirely possible to make a career change and find a role that’s more aligned with your interests and passions. While it does require some intentional thought, effort and discipline, all you need is an action plan to help you get there.
Possibly one of the most important steps in the process is taking some time to self reflect. If you’ve been stuck in a job you’re not happy with for years or even decades, it’s possible that you can’t even remember the last time you stopped and considered the specific things you value most in a career.
Setting some time aside to think about what brings you joy and what you feel like you’re missing in your current position is a valuable way to redirect your vision and find a path to a more fulfilling career.
What do you need to know before you change careers?
Getting out of a rut might feel impossible, but with the right tools, mindset, and action plan, anyone can make the pivot to a job they truly enjoy.
