This is a common feeling shared by many people...worldwide. Evaluate your time and position, consider all available position and don't be afraid to make changes, if necessary.

2. Research. Research. Research.
Do you really want to find the career of your dreams? Do a lot of research. Meet people from different networks and socialize as much as you can. Learn about different jobs. Ask questions. Take career assessment or aptitude tests and if necessary, go to a career counsellour. Most importantly however, never give up hope - with the right perseverance and stamina, you will land the job of your dreams.

3. Yes. Make That Move!
You've done all the research and got all the experience that you needed. Now it's time to leave whatever you're doing, perhaps a position that you've been thinking of changing for so long, and move towards your preferred career. You've been dreaming about it, you've worked hard for it...and now it's time to get it!
Do keep in mind however that no job is perfect, and like anything else in life, there will always be the ups and the downs.
