To ask for career advice? Struggling for ideas

I've been involved in admin work since I left school, with a bit of PA experience (not much though by any stretch of the imagination).

I've been part time admin since having DS and it's great that it fits around DS, but it isn't what I see myself doing for the rest of my working years.

I like organisation (I'm good at it), and I like making things tick over. Those are my skills. I'm also good at time keeping, work well with people.

Could anyone suggest something I could refrain as? Despite my mediocre career history, I am fairly intelligent Smile

A more worthwhile admin role e.g. In a charity or medical secretary, legal Secretary (might require extra training).

Could you be one of those personal organisers that people hire out to organise their admin/events/work to the house. You could then work for yourself
