"But you know what? I'll figure it out. I am motivated. I can't take another year in the daily grind, spitting out computer code and carrying a pager. I've been in the working world since graduating college in 1994, and I'm burning out. I feel like my best years may be wasted just trying to pay bills, and not spent following my passions while I have the freedom and physical health to really enjoy them."

This is the struggle many of us have/had... no easy answers. It is the really rare person that totally loves what they do to earn an income & it is their PASSION. Same thing about where one lives... Why do people wait until they retire to live where they want? Most of us could live much simpler lives & be much happier without the trapping of things.. that demands professions that we feel prostituted in.
