Try out new activities often, if you think they might strike your interest. For example, if you develop an interest in exercise, test it out and you may find that you want to work in the exercise field. Likewise, if you are unhappy in your current job, look for new job opportunities that seem more enjoyable to you. Don't be afraid to apply for jobs and go to interviews.
