Parts of the book "what color is your parachute" are truly revealing to me. This is what you need to know for a successful career - What do you love to do most ?
Think about what would you do love to do now if you don't have any worries about getting paid. Think about what makes you exiciting, think about what your freinds or mother or wife has to drag you to stop doing. Continue doing that and money (enough for a comfortable living) will come.
Sounds too good to be true ? It is true. It follows these simple principles - There is some money for any job in this world. There is good money if you excel and are the expert in any particular job. They key to excel in a job is to love doing it all the time.
Now it might not work some situations. You are in the mid point of your career and cannot just stop what you are doing now, you have a family. Well you are lucky, you can use the comfortness (hey you are getting money now) of the existing platform to jump on to what you love to do most.
For people like me, there is another problem - I don't know what I love or I love too many things. For those, first write down what skills/work_sets you would love to do - Writing, giving speaches, kicking somebody, gossiping, photography, cooking, watching TV etc. Now go find careers which involves those skill sets.
Trust me, there are people who make lot of money running celebrity blogs and writing movie reviews !
