For most people, their job is their principle source of income for 50 years and work is where you spend a significant amount of your life, so you might as well enjoy it. Going and getting yourself a career coach every now and again seems like a good move to me (a bit like getting a personal trainer).
I see so many people at work waiting for someone else to take control of their career. Looking for career coaching from their manager. Here's a secret - most managers don't know how to do career coaching and feel awkward when organisations ask them to do it.

If getting a career coach doesn't seem like the right move for you, have a read of this short article from Korn Ferry - it's got some great tips to think about as you plan your next move.
