10 Reasons Why People Feel Lost In Life Why is it that so many people feel lost in life, not knowing who they are, where they are going, and whether there is any purpose or meaning in their lives? Have you ever asked yourself any of these questions? I have. And that’s why I decided to write this blog post, in the hope that it will bring some clarity to people’s lives and help them find their way back – back to themselves, back to their hearts and back to their life’s path. Here are 10 Reasons Why People Feel Lost in Life: 1. They have lost the connection with their own heart and Soul. One of the many reasons why people feel lost in life is because they have disconnected from their own hearts and Souls. They pay too much attention to their rational minds, and to what everyone else has to say, and now they can no longer hear the voices of their hearts, nor can they connect to the wisdom of their Souls. 2. They live their lives based on what other people believe to b...

You Don’t Have To Know Everything Before You Start Doing Something Nothing stifles our success more than the pressure we put on ourselves to do things perfectly, and avoid the possibility of falling short in the attempt. We live in a culture that celebrates perfectionism even as it censures it. Every time we pick up a magazine or turn on the TV, we feel pressure to have perfect homes, perfect bodies, perfect children, perfect lives. And too often we want to feel like we have to do something perfectly before we attempt to do it at all. Nothing stifles our success more than the pressure we put on ourselves to do things perfectly, and to avoid the possibility of falling short in the attempt. The fact is that right now, you are more than “good enough” to get started toward accomplishing new goals and pursuing new dreams. It begins with having the courage to believe in yourself, in the value you bring and the dreams you hold. Yes, you are smart enough, strong enough, worthy enough,...

62 Things Everyone Should Know How To Do Self-reliance is a vital key to living a healthy, productive life. To be self-reliant one must master a basic set of skills, more or less making them a jack of all trades. Contrary to what you may have learned in school, a jack of all trades is far more equipped to deal with life than a specialized master of only one. While not totally comprehensive, here is a list of 62 things everyone should know how to do. 1. Start a Fire (without matches): Fire produces heat and light, two basic necessities for living. At some point in your life this knowledge may be vital. 2. Operate a Computer: Fundamental computer knowledge is essential these days. Please, help those in need. 3. Use Google Effectively : Google knows everything. If you’re having trouble finding something with Google, it’s you that needs help. 4. Perform CPR and the Heimlich Maneuver: Someday it may be your wife, husband, son or daughter that needs help. 5. Back Up Your D...

The worst thing to say to someone in pain People throughout your day ask you how you are. You’ll hear it as you step to the cashier, as you enter the office at work, or when you unexpectedly bump into someone you know. Sometimes, of course, people genuinely want to know how you are. More often than not, though, it’s just said out of politeness and no one is expecting you to answer honestly with “Today’s been miserable. My car broke down and then my boss blasted me for being late for work.” Everyone just expects your answer to be “I’m fine, how are you?” and they answer in kind. This same dynamic is often what happens when someone offers “Let me know if you need anything” to someone who is struggling or in pain. It’s said so automatically and universally that the person struggling tends to offer the predictable response “No, thanks. I’ve got it. I’m fine” even when they are anything but fine. “Let me know if you need anything.” This seven word cliché, as well intentioned ...

Want To Be A Great Leader? These 5 Things Will Get You There WANT TO BE A GREAT LEADER? HARD WORK + COMMON SENSE WILL GET YOU THERE They inspire by creating a shared vision, something long term that people can get behind. Everyone wants to play an important role by doing meaningful work, and the better a leader is at connecting the dots and showing how daily tasks are contributing to the bigger picture, the more energized and focused the team will be. Great leaders build teams of high performers, and high performers like to be challenged. There are managers who think they need to go easy on people, or that the key to the team’s heart is becoming their friend and going for beers after work. But the best leaders know that they will get the most out of people when they are working hard, learning and growing. They support and trust the team – to take risks, make mistakes, and fail. They encourage people along the way. These leaders get to know people as individuals. They care abo...

7 Key Things To Always Remember Not only should we always remember these things, but we should also spread the word and encourage others to do the same. Sometimes we can lose sight of what’s important in life, but with the helpful words and the encouragement of others, we are able to remember and take charge of our lives again. Remember to Be Yourself To always be yourself is to know exactly who you are. This can take some people many years to establish their own identity but once you do, you realise what a rewarding and fulfilling life you can give yourself. You can establish boundaries, focus on a direction and live according to your values and beliefs. No one on this planet is exactly the same as you and you’re completely unique and original. Remember Who You Are You should always remember who you are because there’s only one of you in the whole world, making you incredibly unique. Always remember who you are, and that includes where you’re from, your morals, your v...

17 Things You Should Keep In Mind Everyday Truth be told, you can’t berate yourself into a better version of yourself. And even though I know this, I sometimes still fall victim to my own negative thinking. Sometimes I’m downright rude to myself. I make a mistake, or fall short of my own expectations, and instead of treating it as a learning opportunity, I beat myself up about it. I’m sure you can relate. We’ve all been there. We all have bad days and moments of self-doubt. Not-good-enough Sometimes the pressure coming from peers, family, work, and society in general is enough to make us feel completely broken inside. If we don’t have the “right” job, relationship, lifestyle, and so forth, by a certain age or time-frame, we assume we’re just “not good enough.” So what can we do about it? Here’s are some good reminders when you’re feeling “not good enough”: 1. You are walking your own path. Sometimes the reason we struggle with insecurity is because we compare our beh...

The Unbearable Lightness of Being Average “You are not special. You’re not a beautiful and unique snowflake. You’re the same decaying organic matter as everything else. We’re all part of the same compost heap. We’re all singing, all dancing crap of the world.” Chuck Palahniuk Have you had a time when you felt content with your life? A time when you had enough money in the bank, a body fit enough to get you through the day and a reasonably long life, a job that was interesting enough, a partner comely enough, friends interesting enough, a house big enough and a car fast enough. Nothing needed to change….until…you found out someone had a lot more money than you, was fitter and more attractive than you, had a much cooler job, had a much hotter partner, had far more interesting friends, had a much bigger (or perhaps for our readers, smaller ) house and had a super fast car (ultra-efficient, no less). All of a sudden, you were discontented. Maybe you didn’t put state it as such...
