Are you stuck in the 10-year career trap? You're 35 or older and tired after a decade in one job or industry. The trap comes in two models: you've worked 10 years in an industry and you've plateaued in your job - the higher-ups can't picture you in a more responsible position; or you've worked 10 years in one industry and you are ready to enter a new industry, but interviewers have blinders on and you feel stuck.
