Despite how much we like to think life is easy going and straightforward, it’s anything but.👇🏻
It all seems so simple when we’re young and naive. We’ll go to school and get a job and reach all of our goals. ✔️It all seems within reach. We’re filled with hopes and dreams about what we’re going to do and how successful we’re going to be. 👌And then life punches us in the mouth.‼️
We don’t get the job, we don’t get into the school, we don’t make the team, we don’t win the award, we don’t get funded, and so on.🥲
Even when we think we have things figured out and everything is going to plan, it can all change in a moment. Inspiration fades. Beliefs transform. Goals shift. Life happens.💭
And that’s the thing. Life is not linear.〰️
It doesn’t always makes sense and expecting a logical progression is folly, especially in the world we live in today. 📈We don’t have a set of directions or a secret map that tells us what to do or where to go. Our paths are winding and filled with forks.📉
We are on our own. We have to figure out how to get to where we want to go. There’s only one way to do that. Seek it out.✔️✔️
