Came across this article during my job search.

Create the Life You Want With a Mid-Career Crisis

Are you experiencing a mid-career crisis? And, if not, should you be experiencing a mid-career crisis? I did when I was thirty-four years old. I'd been working in my chosen field for 14 years and had finished my Masters degree in a related subject. I experienced a growing sense of uneasiness that this work was not what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. Fortunately, I listened to my inner voices. Or, I would never have been able to create this wonderful life and work that I love.

"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference." --Robert Frost

You can, too. Are your inner voices asking you, "Is this all there is?" Do you have a growing sense that you would be happier doing something else? Do you hate going to work each morning? If so, it's time to create a mid-career crisis.

I sure am on a Mid-Career Crisis... but I believe I've found my direction and is already on the path to the right route. Blessed.
