Sometimes it seems like we are trying to plow through life. Like the life we really want has evaded us. Just trying to get by kind of thing. We've been holding a notion of what we want our life to look like, and we just seem to just make it through the day. what is it that has us still in this place of impasse?
When we are trying to create something we have never had in our life, it can seem so ever elusive. We try and try to bring it about, yet it seems to always be just out of reach. When we are breaking the silent boundaries of our life, those silent borders that seem to limit us in our mind, we need to dig a little deeper to find the way to new ground.
Perhaps, just take a minute and look at your life. How long have you wanted to make a change, yet find your self not that much different from just a few years ago. If you were to look at where you are and where you want to go, are you closer now to where you were? Are you not that established in where you want to be? And if you are still closer to where you started, how close is that to where you were raised? Is your life now in close resemblance to your parents mindset? Mindset as far as how you are to create your life? Are you following your upbringing as far as how you are trying to create your life?
Most of the ways we use to create our life has changed. Many of the top jobs of the future do not exist yet. There are no classes teaching them either. Consider the job of internet marketing strategist. Would someone from 1985 know what that is? 1990? What about iphone developer? or alternative energy consultant for private residences?
We are in new ground now. How we are to live a prosperous life is different. I don't think anyone is going to consider working for the same company for 30 years, grow their retirement package and finally settle down in some retirement community.
It's going to be by following our intuition. And our passions. It's what we can truly get excited about that will be the place of our most prosperous life. It will change over time. As the world changes, so will we. We use to define ourselves by a single talent. I am a district manager, I am a neck doctor, I am a electrical engineer. Perhaps our future jobs will hinge around an arena of a single passion, but how that is actually played out in our careers will differ considerably.
Take some time and really discover where you could get so consumed with excitement and interest, that time seems to stop. Find out where your passions truly are. Find out what makes you feel the most fulfilled. And then imagine, really imagine, how you can make that a key aspect of your life. When our creative juices are flowing, we are electric. We are magnets to others. Our passions make our work desirable.
What do you desire?
Do that.
Love and Light
