Career Change At 30
At the age of 30 my goal was to teach myself computer programming, changing my field of work completely from event coordinator of business training events. A move, made out of wanting more from life as opposed to not being completely happy with my job at the time.
I discovered many awesome things along my journey to change career. Uncovering the key elements to career change success, unlocking the power of resources at my disposal, delved into the multi-layers of motivation and celebrated many little wins along the way.
Today I enjoy my work as a computer programmer, I am also committed to helping more people uncover work roles they will like, even LOVE!
Feel fulfilled by undertaking work that fits YOUR OWN skills, personality and dreams. I provide free career advice on a global scale at www.OurWorldOfWork.com. I also wrote a book about my journey which has led you here – A Personal Look At Changing Career. In addition to sharing a personal account of my own journey, this book provides you with your own powerful Action Plans to help you on your career change journey.
Why I Do What I Do
When I think back to myself sitting in my office as an event coordinator, pondering how I could make the change I felt I needed, I could not have imagined just where it would lead me. Today, I combine a passion for programming with helping others to like (even love!) the work they do.
I am honoured to be able to help people all over the world. Whether its helping people discover an area of work that suits them (www.OurWorldOfWork.com) or sharing my experiences, providing guidance for others seeking a change of career in my book A Personal Look At Changing Career.
I am very grateful to have had people along my career change journey that believed in me, and gave me a chance to do the job I had worked so hard to pursue. I grabbed what was offered by my peers, employers and colleagues to grow as a programmer and I stand proud at what I have achieved in my coding career. I feel blessed to have been able to take that leap. It all sparked from when I sat in my office as an event coordinator, not sure if programming was something I could do as a career.
Today, my passion for programming is as strong as ever. Whether I am creating websites, mobile applications, large scale Java applications or working on other projects, every day in the office makes me smile. I just released my own mobile app www.BulgarianByaBrit.com, an achievement that my former self may have not believed would have become reality. As my own business www.ImagineCodeCreate.com continues to flourish I am thankful for the decisions I made along the way.
