My first job was secretary to Moses. Having to transcribe and make 2,430 copies of the Ten Commandments convinced me I was on the wrong career path! OK, maybe I'm not quite THAT old.

It took me about 12 year to come to that conclusion, decide to do something about it, and change my life. If you are not happy in your current job, perhaps it's time to think

It was not long ago that Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia (MSLO) seemed doomed to failure. Kmart, its largest outlet for licensed household products, was in Chapter 11 and closing hundreds of stores. Its magazine was being challenged by the new upstart competitor by rival Rosie O’Donnell. Major television stations were canceling their daily show and critics were saying the show wouldn’t finish the season. Their company leader was ordered to resign by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Yet most devastating, Martha was headed to jail.With plunging sales, vanishing profits, and stock prices falling, few gave the domestic diva’s business

Don't know where to start when you need to change jobs or even your career? It's just a matter of following these 7 steps that will mean you know what to do and when.Stage 1 - What Have You Got to Offer? That piece of knowledge or bit of experience that others haven't got can make all the diference. Take time to sort out your unique difference.Stage 2 - What Can You Say About Yourself? If you have done something that you're proud of there is no need for bragging; just tell it like it is.
