Master Don Juan
first time I've posted in this part of the forum , but theres clearly some well educated and intelligent people that have been round the block on this board so i need some career & business advice
ok so at the moment im 22 working in public finance , I've been doing this for around 4 years now
i don't exactly love it but on the other hand neither do i hate getting up in the morning and going to work
my job provides a fairly average wage and is cushy , so cushy i could sit there for the next 20 years without a care in the world rotting away ,its needless to say that career progression is as slow as grass growing
this isn't me , i have something inside me that burns to be important ....i want to be heading extremely important board meetings , i want people to ask my opinion on stuff , i want my skills to be recognised and commended
none of this is going to happen in my job at the moment because to be quite frank , nobody cares
i don't just want to be a shadow in the background for the rest of my life
the problem is i don't actually know what i want to do , i know i don't want to become a fully fledged accountant thats for sure
i enjoy the theoretical side of finance and I'm pretty good at it , but working out all the tedious equations and functions is just too boring for me .....
this is a list of stuff I'm good at if anyone has any ideas for something i would be good at
organising
memorising
strategising
planning
explaining
manipulating
negotiating
i really don't know what to do with my life at the moment so any advice would be much appreciated , i guess my biggest question is if you could could go back to your early 20's what would you do ?
