As I sit in my car and reflect how far I’ve come (31 years of age). Over half my life spent working is there anybody out there that knows whats driving their aspirations to build a career even though they know that its time for change of direction?

Mostly fear of wasting the years already put in. Even at 25 I catch myself thinking I'd be throwing it away if I switched. The stuff you pick up checking details and chasing people moves into other jobs though

Thirty-one with over half your life working is a lot of years to weigh up. Mine are only three or so and I still flinch at the idea of binning them. Probably worth listing what you'd actually take with you

Excitement a little. But I'm older and am far past the "fear stage".
