A Crisis of Career Identity

I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science in 2006 from Neumont University. As I have explored this career over the last 4 years, I keep attempting to determine where it is exactly I find myself.  The job I have now, and the job before it were and are jobs that I have enjoyed to some degree and have been very proficient at as well. But as I encounter more of my peers in my career field I have begun to wonder if it is my passion or if I have strayed from my passions.  This month will be my two year mark at my current company (buyout and merger included). This tends to be the time where my mind begins to wander and become less focused on things directly related to my work and begin to determine ancillary things that can keep myself occupied.

Now I am contemplating passion. What is it? Do I have it? What is my passion?

I’ve begun playing in the arena of business and marketing in aspects of the company. My thought, a geek who is adept at business, marketing and technology could be very valuable. Do any of you have any thoughts? Feel free to comment.

  1. Figuring out your passion is a big question, worth the effort to figure out though.
