I began my work life really early in life, I have already been a sales person, a teacher and more, but when I came to choose a career, I don’t know really well why, I choose law.
I graduated from a top College and have a very nice résumé. Although I always dreamt of changing careers and doing something I feel excited doing, something out of 9-to-5.
I always feel bored to death in my jobs, but as soon as quit I feel immense fear and get myself back on the rat race.
I don’t mean to be ungrateful as life has presented me with many opportunities, is just I’d like to work on something more flexible and in which I can demonstrate talent not only to receive a tap in the shoulder and a “maybe one day you’ll get promoted”
I’d like to work when I feel the most motivated, but I always land in long hour jobs in which I go around the internet most of the day and dream away and after I get my work done quickly (and well).
I keep dreaming about changing career, but when it comes to that, I simply froze. I feel like I need this secure job for life, and law can provide that when these other flexible career opportunities in which I constantly think about can’t.
I feel like I could not put up with college once again, and also, what it is really difficult to earn the same in any other career.
I feel very stuck in life. Maybe someday I’ll look back and feel like I’ve wasted my entire life dwelling on this.
Has anybody been through this and made the change?
