Feeling lost tends to make us question every aspect of our lives. Everything seems to be out of our control. Things seems to happen the way we never thought, it goes entirely the other way!
It's one of the worst feeling in the world and we tend to extend it to other areas of our lives. We begin to question ourself uncontrollably.
Who am I? What next? Am I good enough? Can I do this? What now? I feel so far from home! I feel so alone! How I wish...? Why am I.....? If not now, when? Endless sequence of question and it tends to get cumbersome for us to handle over time ,negative thoughts begin to seep in more from every angle ,feeling lost and waiting to be found.
We sometimes feel afraid and desperate in such mental state. We tend to take different kinds of measures to stay relevant and afloat not to drown ourself in the vortex of darkness where it seems you only exist.
STOP, PAUSE AND BREATH!
REMEMBER! it's a phase, nothing in life is permanent,so make choices that are good and rewarding.
✅ Take time off and have fun. Taking fresh air or spending time in nature/open space tends to help us gain clarity.
✅ People will always have millions of opinions. Live to your own terms/standard and take your time to grow. Trying to live up to peoples expectations will land you into self misery
✅ Don't be the victim of our own circumstance, do not wallow in self misery, it won't serve you well. Focus on the present, relax and reflect on what exactly is it that you want. If you still can't find answers, seek for support from trusted people that are close to you. Sometimes, you don't have to find your way on your own, ask for help from people you feel safe with.
✅ It also means you should try out new things, new opportunities, have a good circle , that is in line with your aspirations so you can be uplifted when you feel down.
✅ Do not compare your journey with others. it may look same on the outside, mind you! your journey, time,challenges, route, trials, and rewards are totally different.
and lastly
✅ You can't control EVERYTHING! explore what you prioritize or what your feel is important to you and leave some.
Everyone get lost at one point in their lives. Just be true to yourself,do what is right and trust the process.
