Midlife Mindset on the Move: A Career Change Later in Life

Are you ready to make a change but not sure if you have the ability to change jobs later in life? At Peloton College, we help both high school graduates and those adults further along in their career to find something they are passionate about. At Peloton College, we offer both healthcare and information technology career paths that are in demand and ready for change. Even in midlife, you can change jobs and enjoy your new career path. It is never too late.

A midlife change might be mandatory.

As you reach this point in your life, you’ve done what’s expected. Taken the job. Bought the house. Started the family. Raised the kids. But there is this overwhelming feeling of being unfulfilled and that burning question of: What’s next?

A mindset change is critical when considering a new career path and answers that question of “what’s next?”.

Maintaining an empowered mindset is what motivates us and is the most imperative part of the process. While your inner voice of doubt will try to ring the loudest, this is the time to dig deep and SPEAK IT. SHARE IT. SET IT IN MOTION.

A move toward change calls for considerations.

Let’s face it, change is hard, but can be freeing and quite simple if we know what to consider. Here are some questions to ask yourself while on the move:

• How will this impact my finances, family and personal relationships?
• Is there growth potential?
• What are my qualifications?

Now more than ever, training and education is at our fingertips allowing us to feel more confident in a midlife change, where our mindset can change, and we can move toward that change.

The average age of retirement is 64, but many are working well beyond that. This leaves the window of opportunity open longer, especially for those switching paths later in life.

Peloton College offers a variety of opportunities to take that first step toward your next challenge in life. Contact an advisor for more information and let us help you feel motivated by change.
