career transition

It is time for me to sit down and to assess my future.  I am in my early 40's and have been doing the same job for a few years and I am not exactly happy at where my career is going at this moment.  I have a good education and good experience, but I may have been type casted in the employment world.  

I know that I have lots of transferable skills and I just need to find a position where I can apply my experience and help out a company and to be compensated.
