Deciding what you want to do is huge! But only decision that you are harmonized with is a good decision made. Deciding you are going to do something, and then thinking that you should not do that, is a wrong decision. You must stick to your decisions and make the final ones. Now you might be thinking, how to make a right decision? It is very simple, but not easy. It takes time! How much of the time you have? You should have all the time in the world to make those decisions and work on them, because hey, your future self will thank you for. Find that time to figure that out.
It is about researching, asking yourself deep questions, trying new stuff, and sticking to the final decisions.
I”ve been offered to join some Multi-level marketing company. And we”ve been through 4 interview steps now. The first two steps I thought to myself: “I can do that!” But as time was passing by, and I was researching more about that company, and the business model itself, I asked myself deep questions, and I realized that this is not what I truly want. I want to be a leader, not a follower. I want to build something on my own, from scratch.
TRY DIFFERENT THINGS
I lost so much money, because I needed to try something new. And I needed to find my place under the sun. The only way to find a place where you belong, is to look for that place, go places that you never before explored. Immerse yourself in the new and unknown. Life begins outside of your comfort zone. Invest in courses, invest in yourself, actually pay for that.
VISUALIZE
Visualize where you really want to be, what to do, and what to have. If you can be anything you want, what would that be? What would you try to pursue if you cannot fail? These are the questions that you need to ask yourself on a daily basis. What do I really, really want, and how do I go and get it? Again, your future self will thank you for.
RESEARCH
Research like your life depends on it. We are living in such amazing times, when everything is served for us on a silver plate with one click of the button. Things are now easier than ever, the only problem is that we get distracted easily. There is so much going on in the world right now. And these are the best times to look within yourself more than ever, find yourself again, and decide what you want to do really.
ASK YOURSELF DEEP QUESTIONS
Do I wanna be a leader or a follower? Am I hiring people? How many of them? What is my dream profession? Who do I work for? Am I working from home or do I commute to work? Who is my partner? How many kids do I have? Where do we go for vacation? How often do I visit my family? How do we spend our quality times together? You get the point.
Here is my Youtube video that I made on the same topic. As I already said, it takes some time to finally decide about what do you really want, but we need to work for that, we need to put the time and effort in it. Watch the video here:
AS IDEAS COME UP TO YOUR MIND WHILE THINKING WHAT YOU WANT, WRITE THEM DOWN TO YOUR TO-DO LIST
To decide that you need to decide what you want to do with your life, is also a decision, and you are well on your way to make that happen. As you start to think what you really want to do, ideas will pop-up in you mind. The first thing that you should do is write them down. Have always a notebook and a pen in a room that you spend most of your time, or your home office, and write them down. Once you get the chance, you need to follow through, you need to work on that ideas, otherwise, nothing is going to happen, and ideas will go to waste.
WHAT ARE THE THINGS YOU ARE MOST PASSIONATE ABOUT
Do you ever felt like time stopped while you were working on something, you forgot to eat, or you loosed the sense of reality? This is what happens when you are fully into the things that you are most passionate about.
Maybe it is writing for you, selling things online, gardening or a teaching? Whatever it is, it is yours. If you truly love that, you definitely should do more of that.
WHAT DO YOU NOT LIKE TO DO
For example, I don”t like to work for somebody else, 9 to 5. That is truly boring for me, unfulfilling, and I feel like I am wasting my precious time. It feels like dying, not growing. What would be opposite of that? It is working for somebody else? It would be an entrepreneurship. I”ve always wanted to be an entrepreneur, but only now is the truly time to pursue that entrepreneurship.
HOW HARD ARE YOU WILLING TO WORK TO GET WHAT YOU WANT?
People are often times dabblers, they are not fully engaged in what they do, and so, they never get things done. They are indecisive, they cannot commit, and they basically live like the dogs (no offense). Whatever do they find on the floor, they would eat, and they can chase the ball for an hours.
You and me should find out what we want and then go for that fully. Fully immerse ourselves in what we do and make the most out of ourselves and our lives.
I really hope this helps you realize what you really want to do for the rest of your life. It can be very scary, I know, but take full ownership of your life, and actually do the things that will take your life to the next level.
If you need any help with that, you can contact me HERE and book with me free consultation on your career or any goals that you have, like the one how to find your passion.
I wish you very best of luck!
See you in another one.
