Are you in a career crisis? Many people describe a career crisis as a crucial or decisive point in their career, perhaps a turning point and a time when they have to make some big career changes - either forced or 'voluntary'. If you are reading this then perhaps you are at that stage yourself.

For me the word crisis is also quite an emotional word and one that implies some level of urgency about the situation. When we find ourselves in highly (negative) emotional states it can be hard to think clearly and objectively about the choices we have available to us and some often simple, but effective and positive action we could take to move us forward.

Sometimes it can even be difficult to define what we actually mean by a career crisis and personally I find writing down my thoughts and questions and ideas is a great way to determine where the problem actually lies. Why not try writing down what it is that's causing this pain or crisis and what options have that will enable you to change your situation for the better or at least takes positive steps towards it. Who or what can help you?

Ask yourself what does career success really mean for you personally and how could you achieve it? Success is very personal, and we often feel trapped or perhaps fearful by what we imagine to be the global meaning for success - i.e. material wealth, status, moving up the corporate ladder etc. For some people success just means enjoying what they do and looking forward to going to work each day, for others is may mean being home by 6pm everyday to have dinner with their family. Define success on your terms, what does it mean for you?
