ASK LYNN Life Coaching Advice Column

Dear Lynn,
I am faced with an important life choice. My government contract is ending and I will be looking for a new position. I have been struggling with my reliance upon defense and war related income. I would like to work in a field where I will be helping people, rather than killing them.
Signed,
Conflicted

Dear Conflicted,
If you look at this time as an opportunity to explore new job options and career choices, you don't have to be conflicted. This might be the time to to further your education either on line or at a local university.
Our area is dependent on defense and the war related income. It is one of the few places in the country that has not felt the brunt of a sagging economy. One choice would be to find another contract job in your related field so you can maintain your lifestyle and pay your bills while exploring other career path or starting your own business. Anytime we are pushed out of our comfort zone we have the choice to grow. regards, Lynn
