AIBU to ask you how you changed your life?

Specifically your career, if you have? I'm 32 and want a change. The problem is, I dont know what to. I've been successfully self-employed for the past 6 years but looking further down the line, my job will become obsolete in the next 5 to 10 years. But am I too old to change career paths?

Anyone want to share what they did to change their lives, professionally speaking?

Any books you can recommend? I was considering "What colour is your parachute?". I have lots of interests but I don't seem to have a calling. I want to do something interesting but I dont know what I'd be good at or what I'm pulled towards. I've half-heartedly started or looked into retraining options but I don't push on through with it because it never seems to feel entirely right.

Any advice on how to pinpoint what you want to do, what would make you happy?

What do you currently do? What do you enjoy doing...generally I mean.

Start with this image as an inspiration.

It's from the Japanese concept of ikigai, which I really like.

Whatever you find in the centre of that venn diagram so to speak, could be a good next option.
