Making the Big Move

First things first: find your passion.
Finding your passion can show you the direction you should be heading into, and where you want to go in life. Before you decide to embark upon your 'dream', make sure that you know your strengths, weaknesses, likes, dislikes, as well as, what you’re good at and what you need more work on. If you're not sure what your dream job or career is yet, consider doing an internship. An internship may show you whether the field you are currently pursuing is what you are really interested in or whether you should start looking at something else. (Read The Benefits of an Internship, and How an Internship Could Affect Your Career) 

Without a clear idea of what you hope to accomplish and what your passion really is, you could find yourself diving into murky waters.

Taking action

Ask yourself the following questions which could help you in evaluating the job or career you really want:

•     What do you find yourself browsing online or reading in magazines or books moreoften? This could prove an indication of what you like. It's amazing how often people turn their hobbies to their dream jobs!
•      How can you use your current experience and skills to make you a desirable candidate in your dream field? What can you bring to the table?
•      How can you build contacts? Perhaps attending seminars or starting a blog online can help you in getting to know people already in the field who may eventually help you starting up your career.
•      Do any local schools offer courses that can help you gain expertise in your dream field?

A word of advice
Once you have found your dream job, and are eager to become a professional, gain expert knowledge in your field. The more you read, the more seminars you attend, the more knowledgeable and the more indispensable you become.

Good luck!
