Sense of Direction

You must have come upon a time in your life when you have stopped short in your tracks & asked yourself “Where am I now”. In fact each one of us must make it a point to stop one day whatever we are doing & ask ourselves this question. You would find it enlightening because though the question is simple it has a fact that you would wonder what the exact meaning of the question was or in what context it was asked.

Suddenly the question takes on new meanings, you start wondering which aspect of your life is tuned to that question. Is it about your personality? Is it about your job? Perhaps it’s about our future. Maybe it is even about relations & relationships. This is why you must have a direction to travel, not particularly on the highway but in your thoughts & on the road of your life.

Have you ever sat down & thought really hard about the direction of your life or have you until now lived one day at a time?

The world today is revolving & evolving so fast. So to live nowadays you have to plan in advance every aspect of your life & include everything that would touch you. Start with your happiness. What is it that makes you happy or sad or even disappointed? How can you change it for the better?

Some of us or should I say all of us hate change. But there comes a time in your life when you & I need to change. Humans are good at getting into relationships. We get comfortable with what we are, what we have, what we look like. Change is usually for the better though sometimes they may not look like that. But change is an important part of life to make a difference in our lives.

What do you want to become? Identify this first & work around it. What are your problems that you would be faced with? Should you approach it head on? Is there a more subtle way to get it? What makes you smile? If it is happiness that you are looking for, it makes sense to find the answers to these questions. If it is wealth that you want then you have to find ways to earn this wealth. However, the sad reality of life is that money doesn’t grow on trees.

Every story, even the story for change has a beginning, climax & an end. If it is your image you want to change, read about the people who have made a difference to their lives just by changing a hairstyle or just by changing an attitude. You can zoom in on ideas, principles & strategies to help you find solutions to some of the things that you need to apply the same change in your life. Life is precious & there is no point living life on unhappiness & negative outlooks. It’s a fact of life that we learn from other people’s experiences whether good or bad. We call this education. Education is not just found between the pages of our text books. Though I must say the pages hold very valuable information.

Learn to care about yourself, the people around you & the environment. Take some time to review your life. Does it need to be changed?

There are no accidental patterns in life. Everything in life has a meaning. It is for you to find out & spot the difference. No matter what happens in life, always keep a positive outlook. Maybe it may not bring much but would certainly be of help.

Learn to wake up your mind on what you want or in which direction you want your life to go on. Be clear about your vision for yourself. Otherwise you will be like a blind man. Seek out the one that you wish to travel upon. Don’t try to achieve everything in one go. It doesn’t happen that way. Always concentrate one goal at a time but make sure you write out all your goals in your heart in order of preference. Because everyone needs a sense of direction.
