To change the career (please help to modify ,Thanks )

When you are not young, you are in the late of 40,but you are tired of your job, and wand to change the career. Is that an impossible thing to quit job and inquire of brand new profession which you never try before?

> When we are no longer young, say we are in our late 40s, and we are tired of our job and want a career change, is it possible for us then to quit our job and try out a totally different career doing something that we have no experience at all ?

I am in the bottle of career ?, tired of my present job. I want to find a different work which is fresh for me. Also I can promote English ? in a new multinational company.

> I am getting nowhere in my current job, and I am tired of it. I want to find a job doing something that is fresh to me . For example, I will not mind working in a multinational company where I can get the chance improve on my English.

But my families and friends disagree my crazy idear, they believe it’s difficult to change the job in my age, especially to change the career. > But my family and friends disagree with my idea and think that I must be crazy to do such a thing. They think it is unwise of me to quit my current job for a another job that I have no experience in, especially at my age.

They held the disagree points are the main reasons. > They gave me 2 main reasons why they disagree with me.

The first reason is I am unfamiliar with the new career, and have no ability to always do overtime for the new job. In a company, high positions need experienced candidates, low position need young who are full of energy.

> The first reason is that they feel that I do not have the necessary experience to take on a my new career, and I will likely have to do a lot of overtime in order to keep up with my work at my new job . They went on to say that, in most companies, all senior positions are occupied by people with the necessary experience; and all junior positons are more suitable for young people with a lot of energy -- both of which I do not have.

The second reason is I am immature , I am so worried that think the job as the terrible issue. Think about it carefully, try a different company with English environment and work as the same career could be sane.

> The second reason is that they think that I am too impulsive. They questioned me on why I have to think that changing my job will solve anything, even though I hate it. They advised me to take my time to think this matter over carefully. And if I still want to change my job, I can always try getting a same job with a different company that has an English-speaking work environment.

It has been one week that I think about the new career. I admit it’s not best way to change the new career, there are much risk for me to take, I would spend more time and energy, and could achieve the similar position like now.

> I have been thinking about having a new career for a week now. I also have to admit that it is risky for me to change career at my age. The risks involved are aplenty, and I may have to spend a lot of time and energy to familiarize myself and have the experience in order to get to where I am now.

It’s better for me to communicate with my boss to talk about my work confusion that I can find a correct way to work with happy and interested..

> I think it's better for me to talk to my boss to tell him about the happiness I have with my current job and see how he can help me so that I can become motivated and happy again.

Alright, so let's see this from another point of view. People think that the older you are, the more settled you should be. This happens because they believe older means weaker and older people cannot deal with risks as you don't have as much time as younger people. This idea comes from the time when people had to save food for later when they became weaker and unable to work. But, nowadays, when food becomes vastly available to everyone, the definition of being settled has been broadened. And I think this is stupid! I am just 19 years old and I feel the rush of time whenever a new year comes. So, you basically got about 20 years till you have to retire, why not waste time doing things you hate? We don't starve to death nowadays. We don't have to worry about food anymore. Why don't just do what the hell we want?

Thanks your reply .so quick.And give me many useful suggestions. Yes. I havn't write very briefly and clearly. This essay is the first one I try to write English article on line. I will try more next time. Thank you so much.

Hello, I think it's possible, but you have to have a clear idea what you want and wich steps you have to take to get there. And you have to put in the time and effort and be prepared to fail. What's the job you want? Do you need to get back to school?
