If you've been stuck in the same job for a long time and you're unsure how to go about leaving, networking is the key. This means networking while you still have a job. Start contacting people who could be helpful to you later on just to keep in touch. Once you're ready to leave and need to ask them for help, it'll be much easier to do that if you're already in contact instead of just coming at them with a request out of the blue.
