Motivation for those of us that are changing careers

Published

I love my husband he is such a great supporter. He sent me this link to a CNN MONEY.COM article.

I could really related to the students in the article. I will be 40 this year and have been in the same career for the last 15 years and for the last 6 of those years I have really been unhappy.

Hope ya'll enjoy the article.

Are you already a nurse and unhappy? Or is nursing your career change that will make you happy?

I am injury claim examiner. The only thing my job does is make attorneys wealther. I hate my job as a claims examiner. I am finally going to pursue Nursing something I have wanted to do for over ten years now.

Sorry if I was confusing.

Thanks for the article...I can relate too. I'm changing careers from a corporate real estate related job to nursing, but I've been wanting to do this for several years, and my change isn't related to the recession...

My time here in corporate real estate could best be described as the "floundering stage" of my life...I'm switching to nursing to work with people and to not sit on my gluteous maximus all day!!:wink2: I'm really excited about it!!
