Have you found as you get older you needed a change or it was out of your control or your interests changed?I'm doing a course in the Retail Industry but finding my work placement boring and I dont particularly like what I'm doing.I'm hoping to find somewhere I can work and be satisfied with my job someday soon.

I have changed careers 2-3 times, in the early years...I did not have much training/education; but then I was a nurse for 10 years...which is a great career...but the stress can get you and it is a "thankless" job in many ways. However, it pays well and there is alot of job security with the medical field. Now I sell real estate, part time and am semi-retired at the age of 46...I love it. Since I live in rural Arkansas in the middle of the Ozarks....it is the perfect career choice....so much beauty and great weather......The one great thing about education...they can never take that away from you and it makes so much difference in "opening" doors in the career fields. Good luck with your choices!!

sounds like you are a focused,hard worker and a mother etc to boot.I'm easily distracted cause I have so many interests but I'm trying to stick to one thing at a time.I've got to look up where Arkansas is-sounds nice.
