It’s About The Power Life
There are many reasons why people look to start out in a new direction with their career. You may feel trapped in an organization that doesn’t value you, wish to have more flexible time, would like a higher income, or you might have discovered a new passion in life and want to dedicate more time to it.
Whatever your reasons, a career change is a stressful event that needs to be managed and controlled properly and allows you to explore the consequences, both positive and negative, of your chosen decision.
Be Prepared For The Leap In A New Direction
Along with a career change also come a host of benefits, such as feeling happier to get up and go out to work in the morning, feeling more satisfied and fulfilled with your role, and with that comes the added bonus of generally feeling less stressed.
Some of the downsides include having to retrain for a new role, the emotional and financial toll of being in between jobs and feeling like you’ve made the wrong decision.
Here are some great tips to help you change career successfully and achieve your work potential:
- You need to honestly evaluate your real interests and passions, what makes you happy in life, and what your value system is. Also assess what skills you currently have, or skills you need to develop.
- Weigh up the range of alternative careers on offer. Look at everything from the pay structure, to how much extra time needs to be inputted into developing skills, to how much time is required of you per week. See if there are jobs local to your area.
- Sign up for a class to boost your skillset more towards the career you’d like to work in. This can involve an evening course or online short course to gauge what you’ll be involved with on a daily basis, without having to go through a full multi-year college degree.
- Get actively involved in researching the career. Speak to people who currently work in the sector, reach out to networks of professionals on places like Facebook and LinkedIn. Read blog posts and job placements to find out as much as you can.
- You might want to think about moving to a similar job within your industry so that you are still within your comfort zone but don’t have to completely retrain. You can ask fellow work colleagues of they know of anything available, or contact head office anonymously for info.
- Dive in to your desired career role by either shadowing people in the field as they work day to day, just a few hours per week are needed to get the feel of what the job entails. Or better yet, you can volunteer where you would like to work and see how everything runs.
Whatever you decide, it has to be something that makes you happy and is pleasing to your head and your heart alike. If you need any guidance on this new adventure in your life, then a life coach is the perfect partner to help you get to your destination with invaluable advice.
