So how does one make the decision to take the plunge and make a big career change?

As I told Inside Small Business recently, most of us know someone who’s made the switch… “the fast-food chain manager who switched to real estate, the accountant who became a sports blogger or the book editor who’s now a yoga teacher”.
And often, it’s not a decision to be made lightly.

A few points to consider to help you with your decision:
- Seek inspiration
- Do your homework
- Gather quotes & inspiration
- Highlight what’s transferrable
- Be realistic
- Ditch the excess
- Enlist the experts
