Are You Happy With Your Career Choice?

Career Advice:

Stop, take an inventory of your world of work.

Are you happy with your choice for a career?

If you say “no” you are with the majority of those polled by Lifelong Learning’s Advice and Information Service. Fifty-eight of workers surveyed declared they wish they had chosen a different career path. Sixteen percent have changed careers three times; more than ten percent switched careers more often.

Topping the list of those with regrets were 67 percent of people in the financial, insurance, travel and leisure industries. Those in media, publishing and entertainment categories were least likely to have changed careers. Fifty-five percent never had.

I invite you to share your views. If you are unhappy with your career, I think I can help you with my free semi-monthly newsletter, The Career Accelerator. (Click here for information.)

Here’s to your career success!
