Careers Advice - article about Careers Advice

Advice is commonplace, but good advice is rare. We spend a lot of time trying to sort out our mental problems, but sometimes when you get other things in order, the minds just falls into place. For me, there is nothing more precious than the careers advice that I got a few months ago.

I had gotten lots of mental advice for my mother, who is a trained psychiatrist. She knows all about the psyche, but she doesn't know all about what one should do with his or her life. She is pretty happy in her job, but she had no idea what I would be good at. Career advice from her was a dead end.

I was so desperate, in fact, that I was getting career tips from anyone I could think of. You see, I had been stuck in the same job for a long time. I had received some good real estate career advice a few years ago, and I had definitely cashed in as a Realtor. It was good job advice in terms of making money. I was charming, well educated, and easy-going. I made a fortune in real estate in a short period of time.

Unfortunately, the careers advice that I had received had not really worked for me. Sure I had made money, but I was less happy than ever before. Even while working as a cook for minimum wage as a teen, I had enjoyed my life more. I knew that there was some new careers advice waiting for me somewhere.

I tried everything I could to find the right careers advice, but nothing seems to be working. I talked to job career counselors, psychics, university admissions people, and therapists. Everyone had something different to say, and none of it worked for me. I knew that I could earn a new degree online, but what would I earn my degree in? Should I go back to school? Should I stick it out in real estate and try to retire early? It seemed like the most prudent careers advice because I couldn't figure out what I wanted to do, but I knew I didn't want to do that.

The careers advice that really helped me break through came for my best friend. He told me what I really needed to hear: take some time off and think about it. It really was as simple as that for me. Once I had a month or two to think about it, I figured out what I wanted to do. I decided to go back to school.
