7 Ways To Find What You Really Want In Life

“I still don’t know what I want to be when I grow up.”

My friend’s father, in his 40s, used this phrase often. Many people live without knowing what they want in life. Those who stop and think often say, “I have a terrible life.” it goes no further than that. If you really don’t know what you want in your life, you are not alone. Thousands and even millions of people around the world ask themselves this question every day. If you still don’t know what you want, it’s time to find out! Remember, it’s never too late for anything! Listen to what we have to say.

1) Be selfish.

If you are constantly wasting your time on other people’s dreams, you may not know exactly what you want in life. First, put yourself in your shoes and ask: “What would I want to do right now if I wasn’t connected to my job, my family, my friends, or anything?” Always remember this question, be aware of yourself; because if you don’t, nobody cares.

2) Don’t regret it.

Never let your selfishness make you feel bad. This is the rule of life. It’s time to live the life you want exactly. If you are constantly regretting something or have regrets in your past, do not carry it into the present or into the future. Don’t live in the past. Think about the present and your future!

3) Understand your needs.

Sometimes it is difficult to understand the needs. Sit down and think calmly: “What do I need more of? to my family? To freedom? to love? To financial security?” If you think it will work, make a list of your priorities. You can also think of things you want to leave in the past and add them to the side of the list.

4) Identify what you are really uncomfortable with.

You don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do. Identify what you are unhappy with (it can be anything specific). Don’t say you hate your job. Identify exactly why you hate it. Is it your boss? Workload? Is it your location? What is bothering you and how can you fix it? How much do you want to fix this?

5) Identify what truly makes you happy.

The source of your happiness is your passions. Now think about what makes you happy. Trip? Being with the kids? Your achievements in your business life? Financial freedom? First, identify what makes you the happiest. If you work hard for your life, you can have good ideas.

6) Voice your achievements for the people around you.

Don’t keep your passions and goals inside. Shout so they can find life. If you tell people about what you’ve overcome, you’ll get more appreciation and support and inspire new ideas. Sometimes mothers know best. 🙂

7) Think positively.

Life doesn’t always go the way we want. Do not be afraid that your plans have strayed. Control is in your hands. Put your fear aside. Good days will come. Maybe good days may take a long time to come, but you should still act calmly and keep your hope and positivity in your hands.
