Step 1: Spend some quality time selecting a new career. No one knows what you want from life better than you. Incorporating E-learning and Internet research into your plan to successfully change careers is not just prudent; it is essential. News, new information and new technology will reach the Internet up to 12 months before brick and mortar environments. E-learning is also more affordable than on-site classroom training. Step 2: Write your future career plan in a special journal, which will help you keep track of your ideas and progress. A major consideration when planning for a successful career change should be based on how your lifestyle will be affected. Will the career change support your current or anticipated lifestyle? Career change cannot be considered successful if your new career cannot finance the lifestyle you expect. If you are happy at the end of your career change, if your bills are paid and you have time to enjoy the fruits of your labour, then your career change has been successful. Step 3: Compare your career aspirations with those of a successful professional you admire. Keep your plan for successful career change realistic. If you have decided to become a professional ballerina or baseball player, and you are facing retirement, your chances of succeeding are nonexistent. Dare to dream--not hallucinate.
