Finding your path is not an act of searching. It is an act of allowing. When you let go of what you think should be, you allow what is meant to be. While this may sound trite, it is simply the act of following your heart moment by moment. Your purpose is already built into your being.
- Stop overthinking.
Too much of our uncertainty and distress in life stems from our over-thinking and over-analysis of the future that we hold. You may spend endless nights lying awake, struggling with your mind, trying to find out where you’re going to end up in five years. But you usually end up feeling lost before you even start.
The truth is, no matter what we do, we can’t predict the future. You just don’t know that. And that’s not always a negative thing, so you’re not going to base your choice in life on a prediction that’s likely to be false.
By understanding and finally embracing the uncertain essence of life, we will avoid overthinking and over-analyzing and start living more in the present time. This aims to stimulate the mind to the possibilities of now.
- Try anything. Do something.
When you take initiative and start doing something, you start to feel better nearly instantly. Instead of dreaming about a remote position in your brain, full of doubt; you’re going to be working on something that’s absolutely certain: your actions.
You can get swept up in the chaos of life and be consumed by it. Although you can’t predict what’s going to happen tomorrow, you can control what’s going to happen today. And by trying, moving, asking, participating, exploring, and pushing forward, you’re one step further from where you were yesterday.
And you just don’t know where that one step would take you.
- Follow your inner voice.
You might think that if only you learned more, you’d be able to make a smarter decision about the path you’re going to take in life. But you’re going to get more confused and overwhelmed by the tons of conflicting information. And so you’re not going to know what or whom to believe.
You just need to start following your guts. As they say, the first step is the toughest one, but you can eventually find your path, not by sitting and waiting, but by starting to trust your inner voice.
- Believe in yourself.
It is in the positive voices of so many people that you’d be motivated to stick doing it. And through that positive prism, you can see the light inside of you to put forth the courage that had lain dormant until then.
No longer suppressed by someone else’s perceptions about how things “should be,” you will move down your newly found path. The more you rely on your own words and the words of inspiring peers, the more you begin to trust in yourself.
Whilst still, for others, seeking the right path could take a lifetime’s journey, trust that there is one path in which we are all meant to go: forward.
