I beg to differ that opinion. For many, there remains a visualization of government employee from 50s and 60s, strudging along with their plastic IDs and pocket retainers.

This description and perception of government employees could not be any further from truth. Civil servants are an emerging, vibrant and intelligent group of workers who have a heart for service.

Even more refreshing, they have developed a heart for entrepreneurship as well. The pure drive to serve makes them model candidates for homebased business ownership.

Even though unpredictability is an inevitable part of life, most of us are afraid to make changes. It's never easy! Change forces us to take risks, become vulnerable, and open ourselves to unknown. But if you rise above fear, you can begin to change as a good experience. Beyond every corner is an exciting, new opportunity waiting to be discovered.

The lesson I've learned from working with career transition clients is that they embrace change. They might be scared, but comfort of doing work that doesn't fully satisfy them takes a back seat to dream of having ideal work. If it were easy to find a dream job, then everyone would love their work, feel excited about starting there workday and energized at end of it. This is not case for vast majority of people: research has shown that 9 out of 10 people aren't happy at their work. Thus, if you wish to have work that is different from what you are currently doing, you'll have to make a change!

How do you make a change, when you might have mortgages, kids, busy careers and many things to do throughout your days, weeks and months? In order to make a change, you must lead your own change. This is done by becoming what I call a change leader.
