I’m trying to plan my life, but I feel like I’m putting together a thousand-piece puzzle with no picture on the box

    Look for this book, they probably have it at your local library.

    “Discover What You Are Best At” by Linda Gail.

    I was almost 30, out of work with an injury, when I learned about it. It’s a series of self tests you can finish in half a day, and an index of jobs that use those skills. For example, a paramedic and a hair dresser both need good dexterity and good people skills. Totally different jobs but a similar skill set. Jobs are divided up by training needed.

    It pointed me at a job I’d never considered.

    If nothing else, it’ll give you some ideas to ponder.
