What do you really want in life?
Most people don’t discover what they want in life until it’s time to
die – and that’s a shame.
Most people spend the best years of their lives watching
television or doing things they dislike.
What do you really want in life?
Some people struggle in answering such question. When asked what they
want or what their goals in life are, many are unsure. They dillydally in their
decision, hardly giving any thought about what they want in life. People
without definite goals are letting time pass them by. Are you one of these
people?
If you are undecided about what you want out of life, do not
worry. There are many ways of
discovering your purpose in life.
To discover what you want in life, try looking deep into your heart.
Oftentimes, people are ruled by logic. People live by what they think they
should be or by what others like them to be. The discovery process is the
perfect time to listen to your heart. What your heart desires comes from the
whispers of your authentic self. Your authentic self is the real you.
Listen to your heart to be able to listen to your authentic self. What
your heart says usually feels right. What your heart desires is what you
usually love to do and this represents your passion. Anything done with passion
is like play where the task is accomplished without hesitation. You pour out
your very best and feel no pressure or resistance.
Often times, we listen to what others say and allow them to run our
lives. Parents often do this to their children. “We come from a family of
doctors, so my son must also be a doctor.” How often do we hear this from
parents who have good intentions for their children? Parents unconsciously
block the true expression of their child’s real self and calling. Friends and
critics will discourage you and point out the impossibility of your dream.
Before heeding their advice, evaluate the accomplishments of the critics. Did
they achieve theirs dreams? Do they dream big at all?
Remember, it is your destiny, not theirs. It doesn't mean, though, that you will not listen to what other people say. Hear them out
just the same. But the final decision should be yours.
There is only thing to remember: Every person, to live truly and
greatly, must define how he wants to live and what his brightest life will look
like. Listen to your instincts and
follow your heart’s desire. You will never go wrong.
