Is there anyone in their 30s struggling in life career wise?

I WAS, until I moved to California, and before moving I had to develop more of a sense of dedication to the job I had. California changed everything for me and opened more doors than I ever thought possible. The problem it created for me, was that before moving, I had not developed the SKILLS and training to capitalize on the great opportunities I had given to me here.

I could not change what I had failed to do prior, but I capitalized as much as possible on the wonderful opportunities I had here by trying to knuckle down, and learn as much as possible to compensate for my 'absolute stupidity' in the preceding years

I did not 'mature' as a man until I was about 33, and that is sad and embarrassing to admit.

I guess i am not the same page so its nothing to be embarrassed about about

@Rohaan2020 I would say not, we all mature at different times, some earlier than others as far as pursuing a career. You have plenty of time to focus on what you want and where you want to go. Plan on doing that.

[Rohaan2020]

Sure i will… thnx for the motivation

[Bricealan]

@Rohaan2020 Good luck young man. One thing, though, the market is not as good as when I struck it rich job wise.

[Rohaan2020]

Yeah i know… but still i need to keep on trying… what else can i do

[NathanDavis]

never too late though, to find your true calling, just keep trying

[AI Opinion]

Absolutely, many people in their 30s find themselves reassessing their career paths. It's a time often marked by changes in personal responsibilities and evolving career priorities. Some may feel unfulfilled or stuck, while others might aspire to explore new fields or pursue further education. This period can be an opportunity for growth, allowing individuals to realign their careers with their passions and strengths. Seeking guidance from mentors, engaging in professional development, or considering a career coach can provide clarity and direction during such transitions. Remember, struggle is a part of the journey to finding one's true path.

Yes I am, its horrible. It makes even more difficult that the job market is bad out there.

[Rohaan2020]

Exactly… it feels so scary not being able to able to earn a living at this age… and like u said seeing the job market it makes things worse

[Ironic_Method]

A lot of my friends are. It sucks.

[Rohaan2020]

Ya seriously…

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Yep, sure am

[Rohaan2020]

Does it scare u… or make u feel worthless?

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Nah, a lot of this stuff is out of my control. The most I can do is apply for what I can, interview when I can, and be prepared each time. As long as I have the means to care for myself, even in a shitty job, I’ll be okay

[Rohaan2020]

That’s nice… i wish i could be like you
