Re: I want to change my career…
I think it sounds like you’re just burned out, because as you said you’ve been working nonstop for years, with no time to reflect or rewind. A break might be nice.
What you’re feeling is pretty common–I remember in college, I absolutely hated working; when I got better jobs I realized I didn’t hate working itself, I hated the kinds of jobs I had (low skill, too many rules and restrictions, unstable, nasty coworkers etc)
What exactly is it that you don’t like about your work? Sometimes we dislike something but can’t figure out quickly what exactly it is we don’t like; once you isolate that, you can figure out how to go about fixing it…whether that means going bck to that field or switching over to another one.
I really need to sit and think about this properly, I have actually been avoiding thinking about it as if I am resisting solving the problem whatever it may be as if its almost easier to hate it then deal with a hurdle.
