Career Change... but what too?!?!?

I need a career change as I no longer get anything from my current role. I feel like I should change direction as I found it hard to imagine liking something in this sphere.

So I was hoping for any suggestions here's a bit about me...

I work best when under pressure - in fact I only really work when a dealine is looming. I love to work within tight timescales and I get bored extremely quickly... so an ever changing high pressure job would be ideal. I like to feel stress and want to be able to progress, I'm happy to work long hours as long as I am able to work from home in the evenings rather than in the office.

Any suggestions of what might suit me? that way I can go and explore some other options that I haven't thought of.

Also I can't afford to take a pay cut so would have to be something where I could start on a reasonable salary.

An Estate Agent sounds up your street...
long hours, yes,
work from home in evenings, yes,
ever changing high pressure job, yes,
dead lines, yes.
Reasonable money depending on which Estate Agents you work for and their way of payment ie commision etc.

Teaching - Well I wanted to be a teacher when I left school but I can't imagine doing it now.

Estate Agent - A possibility which I will look into, I'm not especially good at sales but I wonder how much that really comes into it. I'm sure I can manage to point out the good points of a house and I'm good at manipulating people so could easily gloss over bad points.
