Tips To Find Your Own Path

Do you feel like you’re stuck and need help figuring out what to do? As isolating as it is, it is not uncommon to feel like we are stuck. To feel that we are going nowhere or no longer happy with what we are doing in life. Many people walk on certain paths, marry particular people, or choose specific jobs because that was what was expected. It was the path that their family, culture, or society placed in front of them.

When you are lost or walking on the wrong path, there are several signs that you can miss.

• You aren’t satisfied. You feel like something is missing and that no matter how hard you try, you do not get that feeling of satisfaction even when you succeed.
• You’re stuck in the past and always look back to better or happier times. You are always thinking back to opportunities you missed or “what if” scenarios, thinking about how things could have gone differently.
• You are constantly stressed. Everything around you keeps you on edge. You’re worried about every choice you make, about every move. You are stuck thinking about what happened, what is currently happening, and what will happen next.

You can feel the void in your life when you are on the wrong path. You can feel that something is missing, that you aren’t doing what you are supposed to. When you are on the right path, you can feel it. When you are on the right path, the signs you will experience are:

• You will feel motivated. You have the energy and are excited about what you are doing. Even when there are obstacles, you are still motivated to keep going.
• You are focused on the now. You aren’t constantly losing yourself in the past, thinking about the different decisions you could have made and wondering about the “what ifs”.
• Things are aligning for you. It feels like everything is falling into place, and you are not constantly struggling for what you want.

When you are on the correct path, one that is your own, you will feel it. You won’t feel stress or loss; you will feel free.
