Signs You Need A Career Change

Finding the perfect career for you can be really hard sometimes! In fact, by the age of 50, the average person has had 12 different jobs in an effort to find the perfect role for them. Many people jump not only into a new job, but often into a completely different field of work! If you’re not sure whether you need a career change or not, here are some signs it might be time to change jobs.

You’re apathetic.

Do you feel disconnected from your work? Do you no longer feel enthusiastic about your job? Not every job in the world is exciting, but you should feel enthusiastic about your work and enjoy it! If you no longer feel that way about your career, it could be time to consider a new role.

Your job is affecting your mental and physical health.

If you always feel exhausted, getting headaches or losing sleep from your job, it could be your body’s way of telling you this isn’t the job for you. This toll on your physical health also significantly impacts your mental wellbeing. This physical and mental stress is not sustainable and probably means your job isn’t working for you. 

Even your salary isn’t making up for the role.

If the pay is no longer enough to make up for the shortcomings of the role, then it’s probably time to consider a change in career.
