I’m often asked “Brian, can a VocationVacation REALLY turn me into a Baker, TV Producer, Interior Designer, Sports Announcer, <Fill in one of our other 150+ VocationVacation types>, etc. in just 2-3 days?”
My answer is always, “Absolutely not! There’s a whole lot more to do. You have to create an Action Plan. But while you’re test-driving your dream job with your mentor, ask them some specific action plan-related questions!”
Your questions will more than likely fall into several broad categories:
1. Knowledge: things you need to learn and understand prior to moving forward
2. Family: How to make your dream job mesh with the needs and wishes of your family
3. Money: How you’ll finance your new career, and how you’ll support yourself and your family while you make the career change
4. Timeline: Over what period of time you’ll transition to the new career
Don’t be immobilized by these big, general questions! Take them one at a time. It’ll all come together and your action plan will become clearer by the day.
