Career Choices in the New Year
A friend recently asked me an interesting question on careers. When is it too late to change your career choice?
After very little thought (as usual, my husband might interject) I stated that it is never too late to choose another vocation. As a matter of fact, my view is that each person is best suited to change their careers many times during their working lives.
Particularly if you are in an industry or job where you have limited higher level brain function required, you may actually hinder your intellectual development by growing stale in a job for too long.
When your challenges involving utilizing your thinking skills are no longer challenging you, it is time to move on, up, over or out. As a practical matter, plan ahead and get the training and education you need before making a move.
