Full Careers - career change?

career change?

I work in a very stressful job & lately it has been getting worse!! I am wanting to change my career but not sure which direction i should head in?

I went through the same thing...I finally quit my job a couple months ago...partly because I just also had our 2nd child. Anyhow, I was in real estate and stressed out all the time, the day I quit, was the day I could start laughing again, sleep at night and smile and not let most things get to me. I have not looked back. I thought I'd utilize my time since I decided to stay home. I am starting back to school in a month and will be getting a teaching credential so I can become a teacher. What better way? Great hours, summers off, holidays off, weekends off, great benefits/retirement, still get to spend alot of time with my family and be able to pick the girls up from school when the start school down the road. Good luck, pick something that you have a passion for, life is too short to be miserable, I wish I would have figured that out a few years back.
It may just be the stress getting to you. Try taking a vacation or time off... if that doesn't refresh you, then start to look for something else. Think about what you enjoy and what skills you have. Good luck
