Failure to Launch
Can any one relate to this? You're lying awake at night wondering ‘who am I and what am I doing with my life’. You may eat yourself up with these thoughts and big questions. You feel like there should be a lightbulb moment where you feel some inspiration and have your big idea. The path might be really clear and before you know it you have landed your dream job with no money worries and all your negative thoughts have gone … or you might not… so you stay there lying in bed mulling over your life. Lets just check in with ourselves here… we all have an amazing purpose and something to offer the world. I do truly believe that. However, when we let our thoughts spiral in our heads we are offering no one, not even ourselves, anything. Today is actually the only day we have any influence on. The actions we take today are the only ones we can have any control of. The thoughts we have today we have absolutely no control of, but how we react to them we do. I now ask these questions as a daily guide: What do I want from today? What tiny action can I take today towards being the person I want to be? Little by little the small committed actions I take each day moves me towards the person I want to be. L. Thompson

You just perfectly described how I feel whenever I cannot sleep at night. I always think that there is more to me than who I am right now, but it is so hard to discover what your purpose is in life. I want to be more than what I am, but I cannot understand how I am going to be what everyone expects me to be. It is so easy for me to blame myself when in reality, I should not feel pressured because we are all moving at our own pace. Just because others are moving faster than I am does not mean that I am being left behind.
