I recently made a mid-life career change. I'm extremely lucky in that my wife owns her own business. This afforded me a chance to take some time, introspect, and truly find something I wanted to do.

I spoke to a lot of people that I respected. I spoke to people that were rich. People that were middle class. People in trades and people in white collar jobs. The one thing I took away from all those conversations? I couldn't find ANYONE that would recommend what they did for a living for me to pursue. Not a single one.

In all seriousness, go to Johnson O'Connor, narrow your search, pursue a path and find some mentors. I spent a lot of time doing the wrong things. Wish I had done this 20 years ago. I had to start all over, but I'm WAY happier with my job than I ever was before.
