A lot of us dream about getting a new job, a new career, or about just changing direction in our professional lives. For some people, finding their passions and looking for options to turn those into a business, is a simple matter. Maybe they are particularly talented in a specific area, or there is something they have loved all their lives. For other people, the process is not simple. They may have interesting careers, they may be making good money, and they may even love what they do. Yet, there is a pervasive feeling of still not having reached their full potential. Maybe they feel they could do something that would have a more positive impact in the world, or they just wished they could be doing something that would be more rewarding, or maybe they just wish they could "own" their destiny rather than giving that power to an employer.
So what do you do when you want to explore a new road but you are not even sure what that new road should be? or you are not completely sure that your "new idea" will bring you the rewards you are looking for? I recently ran into an organization that helps you through that process. They have created a unique way to help people identify and "test drive" their dream jobs. They offer the chance to test-drive over 125 unique careers, through almost 300 expert mentors.
