My Psychiatrist hung himself

Remember our little career change friend who on the back of doing some career counselling realised it "wasn't for him".

Hee hee.

Well, he's back and he's writing a book and not least of which because he gave me a refund I'm going to help him along.

Some interesting things came out of our initial chats though.

Interesting thing ONE

1. People can sometimes look to their careers to give them too much of what they want/need. A hobby can fill in a lot of the missing bits if you know what they are, where to look for them.

This has always struck me as v.interesting I reckon.

2. Po Bronson's book, he reckons is a good 'un for Career Change inspiration.

3. If there's a kind of work you're good at/trained in, it might just be rather than you not enjoying it, you don't enjoy the way it's structured. So for example, his scenario with career counselling is that he doesn't like doing it face-to-face, or rather than not like, it's just not cost efficient.

So, that's his thing, he wants to do it but on his terms, his terms being over the phone. Whether he can then persuade clients of the value of this is another question but it's good that he's worked out what he wants at least.

That's all for now.

Peace.
