What tells you first that you're in the wrong career and second that it's time to really do something about it and not just daydream about a change?

1. Is It Time to Change
Careers?
By Jim Weinstein

2. Time For Change Job
What tells you first that you're in the wrong career and second that it's
time to really do something about it and not just daydream about a
change? As a career coach in Washington DC, I can tell you that the
most obvious sign is a persistent unhappiness with, and sometimes even
a dread of, undertaking the work required to do your job.

3. Clear Sign That it's Time to
Contemplate Change
Note that in a clear sign that it's time to contemplate change, the
unhappiness or dread that you feel, needs to relate to the nature of your
work itself, and not to the unpleasantness of your boss or the dysfunction
of your organization. In the latter situations finding work in the same field
but in a different venue may be sufficient to solve the problem.

4. Fundamental Career Dissatisfaction
People get so wrapped up in the activities of the day that they often
don't realize the negative tone and vibe they share with their colleagues.
See if you can hear your own negativity in meetings, on the phone, even
at the water cooler. Take a notepad and make a mark every time you
communicate something negative.

5. Career Development and Transition
Are you feeling unchallenged at work? Burned out? Worried about
losing your job? Are you searching for greater meaning in what you do?
Have you been “downsized”? Should you go back to school to learn
new skills?
