text: Does he have an interest, or a hobby?\n\nOften times, these tough questions are right under our noses?\n\nCan he teach in a college? I assume he has some degree in counseling.\n\nHas he thought of volunteering for some charity that inspires him? Many people make the switch that way.\n\nIs he not considering the good relations he has with people in and outside of his job? Has he asked people he knows about their jobs, any openings, and how he might make a change?\n\nHowever, if the salary thing is an issue, then maybe he isn't ready yet. It's just that a career change also has to involve a change of spirit and attitude. If you are going to a career you've never done before, then you will definitely be eating some humble pie.\n\nTake it from me. After 15 years at my last job, I was completely burned out and very unhappy, stressed, and confused. Keeping an open mind got me a new career. While the pay is slightly less, I am very happy doing what I'm doing, so, ask your hubby to consider that also.\n\nIt is a really positive step forward and I would advise your bubby to keep his mind open. You never know.
