How To Determine What You Want In Life
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. An author described humanity by
saying, “Most people die at twenty and are buried at eighty.” Are you one of
the living zombies?
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.
You will totally enjoy doing things that are your passion. Setbacks,
difficulties, and obstacles will make it more challenging, but should not deter
you from pursuing your goals. Naturally, there may be barriers that may prevent
you from reaching your goal, but your heart’s desire will find ways to overcome
these barriers so that you may ultimately get what you want in life. Remember
this: the universe supports people who are pursuing their passion and those who
are pursuing their destiny.
However, this does not mean that you don’t use your head. People are
born with both the mind and heart. Your duty is to live your best life and be
in harmony with your mind and heart. The poet Rumi wisely said, “Live
completely in the head and you cannot feel the breath and rhythm of life. Live
completely in the heart and you may find yourself acting like a love-struck
fool with poor judgment and discipline. It’s all a fine balance - the head and
heart must forge a lifetime partnership if one wants to live a beautiful
life.”
Listen to your instinct. Part
of human nature is the mysterious and spontaneous reaction on things. Often
times, these are called instincts. Your authentic self communicates with you
and guides you via instincts. Instincts are those gentle nudges that urge you
to act and follow a certain path. Your role then is to listen attentively.
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 that is in line, 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.
