Craig Nathanson – The Vocational Coach

Don’t afraid to ask for support and be prepared to sacrifice when you move towards the right work.

Get a mentor or coach to help along the way.  Usually our family members are interested, of course, but these are vested interests.  Our family members usually like it when we stay the way we are and don’t rock the boat-stability. No stability is good when you are doing the wrong work.

Better to seek out external experts who can listen, guide, and help you plan the second half of your life, which works better for you.  Most people never had a coach unless they were on a sports team in their youth.

This is the part you don’t want to hear!  Finding right work is  major change and requires great sacrifice.   The sacrifice can be different for each person.

Generally, it will be around money and life standards in the short term. It can also be around relationships, and it can be around where one lives and multiple other trades-off.

The reason most people don’t do the right work especially after 40 is because these life changes are hard to make especially without much external support.

I’ll be cheering you on as you go!
