Have your ever felt totally down and out? Like after months of trying, you just can’t get to where you want to be? A couple weeks back, I was completely burnt out from all the trying. Just plain sad.
Then a good friend said to me, if you’re sad, it’s a good thing. Because you know you’re not there yet. Something is missing, and if you ask the right questions, you will find out what’s missing. All you got to do then, is to find out how to get the missing pieces that make you truly happy.
After hearing that, i just clicked. At that instant everything seemed to become positive. Everything was so clear. It’s become a guiding tool, to tell me that i’m still a long way off my goals of where i want to be. So every time you feel down, take it as a sign that the inner you is reminding you of where you ought to be. And be glad that you still have a sense of direction.
An ex-boss once said to me, if you’re happy at such a young age, something is wrong. It’s either you haven’t seen the world, or it means you have no ambition. To be satisfied at a pioneering age of 20, it could also mean you have achieved all your goals, or you have no idea where you want to go.
You still have more than half your life to achieve your dreams, don’t muddle through it, then 50 years later, realize you didn’t have one in the first place.
