#4 Feeling Lost

 

At times most people may think to themselves and ask, "Am I headed in the right direction in life?" Many young and older adults may had this thought once or twice in their life. As humans this day in age we are simply racing against time, trying to meet a deadline, and trying to fulfill our daily tasks in a timely manner. The character that comes to mind is none other than the "White Rabbit" in Alice in the Wonderland. So many of us tend to live in the past or future but never in the present. This may also be the reason why so many individuals have/had these thoughts due to the fact of always wandering in two other places rather than simply living in the present. These feelings that arises during these times of feeling unsure is just another hurdle to overcome during a goal that is being pursued. 

Some individuals may have the hardest time during this lost stage but some will quickly bounce back. Having a support system is also a great way to push pass these times and to have faith in a higher divine. During trouble times many refer back to their religious beliefs and maybe say/said a prayer or two to overcome these obstacles. Some people often use these lost times as a recharge mechanism to step back and evaluate themselves on where they can approve or what moves they will need to make/take.  

The greatest thing to do during the "Lost time" is to overcome the feeling and pursue the goals that were intended in the beginning. No matter the stress, obstacles, and emotions anyone can achieve anything if they put their all into everything they are doing. People will look back 10-15 years down the road and be proud that they never gave up on their goals and ambitions. 

So, the next time you have that thought of giving up just remember; you are in control of everything that you do. Simply take a self care day and think of all the positivity in your life. 

Now, close your eyes. 

Breathe in and out. Exhale. 

repeat. 

You Got this!
