When listening to that little voice of change it is important to understand yourself. We choose a career for a number of different reasons and sometimes we don’t ask ourselves one important question, what do I want? Learn why reinventing yourself is an important first step to changing careers.
How to Reinvent Yourself
The key to any transformation is understanding what you want. You know what you like and dislike, so you probably want to redefine your work to fit your needs. Ask yourself the following questions as you transition into a new career: If flexibility is important to me, does this mean working fewer hours or maybe working via phone or computer is what I’m looking for? If entrepreneurship is of interest to me, do I need to go back to school for additional training or education so I am up-to-date?
