Many people are feeling frustrated with their current situation, whether it be because of their job or money situation. However, the changing economy offers those who feel like they are in a rut to try a new career path. New career paths offer many people new ways to explore limits and new interests.

Landmark Education communication expert David Cunningham and Wall Street Journal coloumnist Alexandra Levit, were both interviewed by Random House publishing, and spoke about how having a change in perspective can help people get "unstuck" and start a new career.

Levit, who recently published the book New Job, New You: A Guide to Reinventing Yourself in a Bright New Career, said, " A lot of people are feeling very stuck in this current climate. Either they're in a job that they feel is not personally meaningful or they're just not sure what the next step is to take."

Cunningham offered a couple of tips for people looking to shift careers - including making a couple of lists. He said that people who feel like they are stuck should make two lists, one with facts about their current situation (salary, opportunity for promotion etc.), and one with their thoughts on their situation.

"When you go to work on just the facts versus what you add to them, you get a lot of power," Cunningham says.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics states in the Occupational Outlook Quarterly that career changes can be beneficial for most people, but encourages people to asses their current financial status and career status before doing so.
