It’s probably fair to say that most of us experience the sensation of getting ‘stuck in a rut’ occasionally. After all, life has the habit of throwing us obstacles, and sometimes you feel just too tired to go for what you really want. Many of us stay complacent in the face of our true ambitions and experience a niggling self-doubt while we do so. A period of complacency can often lead to growing dissatisfaction, which then causes us to break and make a change. However, we seem to waste a lot of time getting stuck in complacency and delaying the changes that we’ll eventually have to make anyway. In the meantime, your wellbeing can suffer and your mental health may also show signs of the strain.
Nothing compares to the emotional wellness of following your true passion in life. We all grow up with a perception of a certain destiny and expect our lives to be significant in some way. One of the most painful things to watch is when people give up on this hope as they get older and resign themselves to a constant sense of dissatisfaction. Now, it is probably not the case that you were born to become President, but it is most certainly not the case that your birthright is suffering and mediocrity. In other words, the key to satisfaction is in forming realistic aims, and seeking happiness at its real source.
In mapping your intentions for life it is important to be realistic. True passion is the most powerful driving force you can possibly introduce to life, so be careful and sure in defining your goal. Some of us have it is easy and are born with the kind of mind that easily finds its own balance and is prone to finding its state of contentment. However, many of us struggle for years with our desires and in trying to establish which of them will actually bring us health, wealth and happiness. Self-questioning is vital, and the earlier it takes place the better. Look for the occupation or goal that benefits you the most in every essential area. Your goal should be to establish a life that keeps you in a state of contentment, with every element you require for emotional, intellectual and physical satisfaction.
Those of us who seriously struggle in establishing this may waste years, so it is well-advised to take help as soon as possible. The growing availability of life coaches is testament to a growing awareness of this fact, and it is well worth finding a qualified and trustworthy coach to save you years in the essential act of goal-forming. When you know what you want in life, everything becomes much easier, as all actions work under the incentive of your aim. Passion is the best motivator, and allows you to be ten times more productive than its alternatives; confusion and fear. Lasting motivation requires an enduring motivation and this can only be found in true passion.
