At times in our lives, we reach a point where we feel incomplete – lost.

It can be triggered by-

* Friends moving away

* Our kids growing up and moving out

* Divorce

* Loss of a job, especially if it was a career

* Death of a parent, friend or spouse

As teenagers and young adults, we’re focused on fitting in with peers and constructing our lives.

Then kids come along and we focus on their needs. At the same time, most of us have parents that need care.

Then suddenly, we’re left standing in a field – not knowing

which way to go. Many of us have never really taken the time to think about what YOU want. What is it that would make YOU happy?

Many people just shrug and resort to somehow passing the time until they die.

How do you be yourself, for yourself? Most people have no idea. You’ve been so busy building your life around what others think and need, and trying to keep them happy that you’ve been lost in life’s shuffle.

Instead of focusing on the way of life you’re lost, focus on what doors that opens up for you. What can you do that you always wanted to do, but couldn’t because of the demands you used to be under?

Here’s some of the things I hear –

* Start an eBay business

* Write a book

* Paint a picture

* Redecorate

* Travel

* Gardening

* Read more

* Go back to school

What do you want to do? For You?

Go for it!
