[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Great advice on this thread, but what if you are not sure what you want to do (you just know you don't want to keep doing what you have trained for)? How do you figure out what's out there? And the first person that mentions that garbage that is about colored parachutes gets no dessert.[/quote] Think about what you liked to do as a kid and what skills you used--those are probably your strongest natural skills. There are always reputable articles about the fastest-growing careers AND careers that are becoming obsolete. See if you can matrix your skills with something from the first category--and skip the second category if you want to stay employed longterm. You must have one friend or acquaintance who does something you find interesting--talk to him or her. Even if you don't want that exact job, maybe there is a subset of his or her field that would be a good fit for you.[/quote]
