Have you
ever felt that you have reached a point in your life where you have nowhere to
turn? That the possibilities are endless and yet you can't pick ONE that will
suit you? Don't worry, this advice will help guide you to the right door that
will open up for you.
Be positive. You need to look at your choices
with a good frame of mind. If you don't look for a solution to your problem, it
will be difficult to find it. There are many different ways to help you achieve
positive energy. You can try yoga to clear your mind, go and bring a blanket to
the beach and relax, read a good book while drinking hot chocolate, a nice
bath,...etc. Whatever that will work for you to get your spirits lifted before
deciding to make important decisions about your life. This is important
especially because the consequences of making lousy decisions just because you
felt upset or helpless when you made them-can be potentially dreadful.
Manage your time wisely. As we all
know, we don't have forever to live in this world. If there is a certain dream
you want to follow, don't wait until your actions to fulfill your dream are to
late to have an effect. I am not saying to be a daredevil, just that it is okay
to test your abilities that you want to develop.
Get organized. If you have lots of ideas on what
path you want to take in life, you are normal. You are definitely NOT alone. If
you like writing you can buy a journal to help you organize your thoughts on
paper. Sometimes it all comes to place when you can visually see your goals on
paper laid out for you. If writing is not your thing, don't lose hope. You may
find that by telling someone close to you about your indecision, you can
clarify your choices and then make a decision easier. If it is a career that
you question, do as much research on the internet or from the library as you
wish.
Ask questions. It may feel a lot better if you
talk to someone that is knowledgeable about the specific goals you want to
achieve before making final decisions. If this isn't possible, you can write
down a list of questions you want to be answered regarding the goals you want
to achieve. Who do I need to contact? What qualifications do I need for this
path? Where do I need to start? Remember that the process it takes to find the
answer is just as important as the answer itself.
Find your passion. You need to love the path you are
taking in order to be truly successful. Something that makes your heart feel
warm and makes you smile. Don't dread over money and decide the path you take
solely because of the income it would provide. If you will be miserable with
that path, what does it matter if you got so much money from it? Money doesn't
buy happiness. It could help, but it shouldn't solely decide your dreams.
Make your decisions.
Eventually there always comes the time where you need to have your plans take
action. What are you waiting for? Don't do something that you will regret
later. Make a list [lists are what all the cool cats are doing] that can show you
the pros and cons of everything you've got to be familiar about. Take your time
with this process. It is better to take a few extra hours to think it over
well[your future plans], then a few extra years to make up for a mistake.
Find motivation. Motivation is not something you
should overlook. Find what is best for you to get motivated. Listen to
inspiring people, hear upbeat music, read, go out and visit interesting
places...etc. Motivation comes from anywhere and yet it makes all the
difference to see your dreams coming to life.
