Changing your career? Watch for these five saboteurs of higher career change


When you find the right career fit, life will move into a new impetus. Find the right job within your career gives the wings of life!

It is common for people to stall somewhere on this course between discovery and the success of the transition. Many people determine what is important to them, identify the right track career and job interest. Then something happens-a barrier prevents them from achieving success. I call these obstacles saboteurs career change.

Here are the top five saboteurs many career changers face. Recognize and understand how to overcome them, so that they do not hinder your success.


1. Time -these days, we're all too busy. Become distracting and losing focus is a common occurrence. As a change of career, it can be devastating. You have to make the time and effort needed to stay on course to promote.

2 bone…money - financial pressures may take two different shapes You may worry that a job change automatically means a pay cut. Obligations such as student loans or put food on the table can lead to take the first job offered to you. As a career change, you have to do your homework and realistically evaluate your salary expectations. In this way, you will not be unpleasantly surprised, nor it yourself, especially if you have transferable skills. Develop self-discipline remain faithful to your path.

3. Confidence -it is common for career changers to wrestle with how to translate their new career vision convincing and honest in a curriculum and interviews. The key here is to not do it alone. Many good books that can help are readily available. Or you can consult an expert resume, career counselor or coach. An expert can help you smoothen out rough edges, so you can express your thoughts with confidence and vision.

4. connections -career changers often rely on their family and friends to support them in their transition. However, according to a recent study by Stanford, more people find jobs through an informal network of contacts than through friends and relatives. In addition, the study found that jobs found this way pay better and are more rewarding. In some cases, family members really hinder your job search. Why? Maybe they have a hard time seeing you in another career or fear that you can modify. In any case, as a change of career, it is important to expand your network and make connections. Be part of an industry association, participation in professional events and connect with other users online.

5. Enthusiasm -stay motivated throughout your job search is essential. I often see career changers get discouraged, ran out of steam within one to three months of their career transition and wants to quit. As a change of career, it is important to stay motivated! If you keep your energy high, you'll become a magnet that attracts the right people and opportunities at your fingertips. If you need help to stay motivated, go to the gym, take a walk, vigorous, or read the funnies. Try to avoid a funk, but if you succumb, you get back on track – fast!

Don't fall victim to wreckers career change. Remember, to successfully reach your career goal is worth it! Do you have what it takes to make your career humming. Apply the focus, commitment and discipline to get what you want – and deserve.
