6 Tips On How To Decide On Your Next Career Move

Drewbie Wilson • September 7, 2022

"Making a career change is a big decision, but it does not have to be scary. With a little thought and planning, you can find the right path for yourself and create the life you want."

Are you considering a career change? Or maybe you are just starting to think about what kind of career you want to have.


Either way, deciding your next career move can be tough because there are so many options out there and it is hard to know what is the best fit for you.


There are a lot of factors to consider, and it is not always easy to know what the right choice is because there is a lot of uncertainty.


Just when I decided to quit my job and pursue my career as an entrepreneur, I was unsure of what I should do next. I had no clue what kind of business I wanted to start, or what my exact goals were. But after doing some soul-searching and research, I finally figured out what I wanted to do. And I'm so glad I did because I love being my boss, it gave me a lot more freedom, and I get to make a difference in people's lives.


Being a solopreneur can be scary and overwhelming at first, but it is worth it if you are passionate about what you are doing and you are willing to put in the hard work. And if you are still not sure what you want to do next in your career, here are six tips on how to decide on your next career move:


1. Figure out what you are good at

The first step is to figure out what you are good at. What are your strengths and weaknesses? What do you enjoy doing? Answering these questions will help you narrow down your options and find a career that is a good fit for you. It may also help to talk to friends and family members to get their input on what they think you would be good at.


2. Consider your lifestyle

Your career should fit your lifestyle, not the other way around. So think about what kind of lifestyle you want to have. Do you want a 9-to-5 job or something more flexible? Do you want to travel or stay put? Do you want a job that allows you to have a family or one that requires long hours and lots of dedication? It is important to find a career that you are passionate about, but it is also important to make sure it fits your lifestyle.


3. Consider your values

Your values will also play a role in deciding your next career move. What is important to you? Do you want a job that makes a difference in the world? Do you want to work for a company with ethical values? Consider your values and find a career that aligns with them because you will be happier and more fulfilled if you do.


4. Research your options

Once you have figured out what you want, it is time to do some research. Look into different careers and learn as much as you can about them. Talk to people who are already in the field and get their advice. The more you know, the easier it will be to make a decision and find a career that is right for you.


5. Trust your gut

At the end of the day, you have to trust your gut. You might not be sure about your choice, but if it feels right, go for it. Follow your heart and choose the career that feels right for you. It may not be the conventional choice, but it will be the right one for you. It is also important to remember that you can always change your mind later on if you find that it is not the right fit.


6. Seek professional help

Making a career change can be overwhelming, so do not hesitate to get help and advice from professionals. Talk to a career counselor or coach and get their input on what you should do next. They can help you figure out your goals, values, and strengths and find a career that is right for you.


Making a career change is a big decision, but it does not have to be scary. With a little thought and planning, you can find the right path for yourself and create the life you want.


So take your time, do your research, and trust your gut. And before you know it, you will be on your way to a new and exciting career. The right career is out there waiting for you!
