It takes years of dedication to build a stable career, but it takes even more courage to make a career switch. There are many reasons for making a profession change. For some, changes in life circumstances, such as expansion of family, may demand for more predictable working hours. There are also those who discover new passions or interests that align more with their personal aspirations. An example is Michael Jordan, who left his basketball career briefly to pursue a career in professional baseball, even though he did eventually go back to basketball.
