Tuesday in the life of an INFP.

So another week begins. Tuesday is my Monday and it is turning out as planned. Lots of unwanted attention all day from work needs. The worst part was the breakdown on the way in. So many days take everything you have to get to work; at least they do for me. One day I’m going to run out of excuses for not turning the car around and going home. What then should I do with my life? I thought again about becoming a mental health counselor. I would be able to help people in that field. The bad side is it requires more school and any student loan debt would be a bad idea since most entry level jobs in that field bring in a whopping 30 K. It is a livable wage, but not if you have $100,000 in student loan debt.

So I have to find some direction with the things I’ve got. The only problem is the jobs in this area are nil. There isn’t anything. The options here include
1) working at a bank
2) a call center
3) something involving food
4) something involving tourist
5) medical work (and another decade of school)
6) Oh yeah and teaching, but apparently I’m not wanted there.

Maybe the fact another school year begins and I didn’t get a shot at teaching has me realizing these doors are not opening for a reason.

Mental Health? Seriously, you don't belong there. The only side of that industry you belong on is the one you aren't referring to. Sorry.
Seems to me like you either need to keep on hunting your down your dreams, settle for something crappy (not really an option. never should be), or move somewhere that will help you fulfill the lifestyle you are seeking. Sometimes change is a good thing, and sacrifices must be made. Especially when ones happiness and sanity is involved.
Why the mid-life crisis my blogging pal?
