Need advice about changing careers. How do you narrow down what it is that you want to do?

Currently I am a Realtor. This is a new career for me as I am trained a lawyer and recently left the active practice. So far this does not seem to be a good fit. I am exploring what would be a good fit. Any suggestions about narrowing down would be helpful.Need advice about changing careers. How do you narrow down what it is that you want to do?
Whatever age person u r, ensure where u want to reach and improve ur skills according to the requirement u need to reach that destination and travel thru that but itz not simple to get the opportunity in which u have trained but itz alwayz good to keep yourself in to what u r going to do...



And as another user mentioned in this, if money is not matter to you then WAIT UNTIL UR CHANCE but dont remain doing nothing instead alwayz work on ur creditabilityNeed advice about changing careers. How do you narrow down what it is that you want to do?
I can answer by asking a few questions...



What do you like to do in your spare time?



If you did not have to %26quot;work%26quot; for money, and you could retire and live in style, or travel, or anything you could dream of, how would you spend your time? (traveling, helping people, inventing stuff, starting your own business, etc).



Looking back on the last 10 or 20 years of your life (not sure how old you are), what are your best memories, and why?



The answers to these questions will tell you a lot about yourself and what you will be happy doing.

Changing careers is usually a question of earnings versus satisfaction. In most cases the two are not completely compatible and you have to make choices and compromises. Depending upon your situation (responsibilities) you can lean more to one side or the other.



As a trained lawyer you have many choices, corporate law is probably the most lucrative and being a civil advocate is probaly the least lucrative. You might also considering contract administration or management for a business in an area that you like. For instance I enjoy audio equipment and listening to music, so a good job for me might be contracts management for a company like Velodyne or Klipsch



Figure out your needs and desires and find something that balances the two.Need advice about changing careers. How do you narrow down what it is that you want to do?
Think about the things you enjoy doing--not just work, but hobbies as well. What is it that engages you in such a way that time seems to fly by? Break it down into the skills you use to do the things you enjoy. Then look for careers that utilize those skills. Check the Department of Labor's Occupational Outlook Handbook for possible careers:
