not much advice except to say: balance in your life what you love to do with what you can do to support a spouse and family....

it's hell working in a job that only pays money and that you don't love...

it's hell for your dependents if you work in a job that you love but pays squat because your quality of life suffers..

you have to strike the best balance between the two and then strike the best balance in life after that

I am now in my late 30's and have had 3 major career changes.
Mechanical Engineer; Hotel manager and now Global Planning which I am enjoying. You have to ask yourself what you like and don't like; how important is promotion/ progress in a job choice. How far are you willing to travel - would you re-locate for your dream job? Are you prepared to learn another language and culture (job overseas). Do you like dealing with people or are you a quieter type, does everything you do have to be perfect or are you more of a dreamer? All these questions need to be answered by you before you can look at the various choices out there. I suggest you take the BBC's Personality test - it gives you a good idea of the kind of person you are (answer truthfully!)

Why do you no longer go alongside to verify Direct - they are going to open an entire container of opportunities for you. I say this on account which you do no longer say what your truly expert container is. additionally as you have babies how approximately instructors help assistant - then you definately could have the holiday trips unfastened if that ought to be the case. I took on an entire new profession in my 1930s doing living house help finished time - truly enjoyed this artwork and moved up the ladder remarkable away. merely an decision at this point, regardless of decission you're making i'm hoping it works out for you and yours. One final little bit of advice - stay removed from scams I dont assume i could desire to tell you that they are not all what they provide the effect of being.

I had a quater life crisis at 25 also. It was a time for me to re-think my career. I had a stressful job and wasnt enjoying it. I gave it up for a slower paced job and havent regretted it (apart from the pay cut!)

i think what you need to do is figure out what you like doing.. do you like animals? do you like kids? do you like computery type of stuff..

just look at stuff your interested in and try and find a job around that.. ie if you like books/reading maybe try a book store a library
