People would want to transition from one career to another for many reasons. It could be because of boredom or lack of fulfilment. Whatever the reasons might be, transitioning from one another is really tasking and complex. Some practical strategies that can make this transition a little easier are:
1) Know yourself by taking time to discover who you truly are, where your interest truly lies and what you capacity can carry. You can talk to professional counsellors in this regard.
2) Talk to your professional network: Share with colleagues and ex colleagues about your desire to switch careers. Get insights from them as they can give valuable advice.
3) Start education and skills development from the basics in your new desired career: You would have to go down to the roots to build your skills up to be employable in your new desired career. No shortcuts.
4) Be ready to start small in your new career: Be ready to take a lesser role or level in your new desired career and grow your way to the top.
