Not in the right place by whose standards? Your own? Someone else's? If it was someone else's, I would tell them to piss off.
If it's your own, Are you happy with where you are right now? If not you should decide what you want to do and not mope around about it. This is Life, its about learning and finding your place and if you can't. Make your place! Live your life to the fullest because before its too late, it'll be over and all you did was wonder about the wrong things.

Ask yourself these questions:
1 - What is my life about?
2 - What am I committed to in that area?
3 - What am I willing to be responsible for in order to fulfill on that commitment?
These can be very hard questions to explore, especially if you've lived like most of us -- so busy solving problems and putting out the hundreds of little fires that come up each day, that we don't remember to take the time to re-center ourselves on what we want our lives to be about.
Since you've asked this in Marriage and Divorce, I'll point out that these questions can be VERY powerful if you have them in a conversation with your spouse or partner.
That's something we do, in a semi-formal manner, every New Year. Instead of making New Year's Resolutions (which I think are a social phony, something people make to look good but have no intention of fulfilling), my wife and I have a two-part conversation every year. The first part is looking back on the year that's just ending, and closing it off, saying anything that needs to be said about the events of the year. We always ask each other if there's anything we would like to acknowledge about the other, anything we'd like to be acknowledged for, and if there's anything else we need to say to feel complete, to bring closure to the events of the past year. Then we open the champagne. :-)
Within the next couple of days, we have a conversation that amounts to assessing where we are in life -- what we're up to as a couple and a family as well as individually, and how the New Year is going to demonstrate that we're achieving results in those areas. Once we set the year off on the right foot, then it's a matter -- when things get tough -- of reminding ourselves, and each other, what we're committed to, and then asking what we can be responsible for to fulfill on those commitments. It brings such clarity to the life choices put in front of us and to the hard tasks we are faced with.
The final piece in this puzzle is to spend some time thinking about how you'll know that you're making a difference in what your life is about. What will your life be like -- what will the world be like if you're fulfilling on your commitments? Then keep your eyes open for those signals. And be open for surprises -- sometimes, miraculous things happen when you're working very hard on what you choose your life to be about...

Move to a different place and see if I feel sure there.

Take time out to think about where I want to be, and the best way for me to reach that goal.
