There are many talks about taking the bull by the horns and just living life but sometimes it’s not easy. Sometimes things are not straight and a lot of things comes in your way so its ok if you are stuck at the moment. Figuring things out is a process. I don’t have my things together. I am still trying to figure things out and living the life I want for myself. It is not magic. You don’t get up one day and think that’s how your journey should go because you have not idea whats on that way and even sometimes you realise halfway through your journey you don’t even want what you are after. But it is okay. The great thing about this is that now you know. You did not sit down fantasising about going or doing something. You actually made a move and realise that it isn’t for you. If it is for you then great you have done what you wanted to do.

Learn as you go

The answers will not always be given to you. The answers aren’t always given and even if they are your story is different. Without doing and experiencing you cannot really learn. It’s just like learning in school. Let’s say learning a language in school. You focus on so many things and sometimes in class you feel you are the best but you get thrown to the real world let’s say go to that country and your realise the text book and classroom language is not the same as the real language. You realise that what you know isn’t enough and so you try to make up for it. Throwing yourself at situations will help you learn. Experiences will teach you. Don’t be afraid to take risk don’t be afraid to try new things.

Try New Things

Sometimes we don’t even know what we truly want. Like I said you might think you like “A” but maybe there’s something else you like which you haven’t paid attention to so try different things. Explore. Explore new countries, cities, culture, food, new people, new books etc. The world is huge and beautiful. There is so much more to you than what you currently see you just might not have sat down to dig deeper. So take the opportunity to get to know yourself better

Write down some goals

A list of the things you would like to do and go over the list over and over again to remind yourself that you need to do somethings. Sitting down will not solve anything. There have been days, months where I feel like I would never amount to anything. Days where I have asked myself what my real purpose is. I am still figuring that out and you can and should too.

Do Not Compare Yourself to Anyone

Remember that not everyone has it all figured out. Everyone is on their own journey do not compare where you are to where others. Leave their journey for them. Concentrate on you. Listen to people that inspire and motivate you. Get fresh air, listen to music, meditate, do and learn.

Have Fun

You can create the life you want by experimenting. Have fun. Don’t let things scare you. When you treat things like experiments rather than an examination there is less pressure. It’s not about the grade you get it’s about what you did, how you enjoyed it and what you learn that will help you.
