Are you wondering how to choose a career? Or you have one but you're feel like you're stuck with it and that makes you unsure if you're really happy with your chosen field?

Choosing the right career for you can be difficult. There are so many overwhelming options that might lead you to a hazy mind. You don't know what career can really make you happy or what you're qualified to do.

Take the case of Adrian Granzella Larssen, the Editor-in-Chief of The Daily Muse. But before she found her dream job she was an event planner, a marketer, and an online communications strategist. She too experienced the same thing, she felt lost in her career.

But after some serious musing and acknowledging the fact that there aren't any shortcuts when it comes to finding the right career, she somehow managed to resolve her dilemma and now she's helping her friends and colleagues who are going through the same issue by coaching them.
