HOW TO MAKE A START IN CREATING YOUR FUTURE

381 Words | 1 Min 23 Sec Read

If you’re in a position in life where you feel like you’re completely stuck with no purpose, no calling, no passion or direction then you’re in what’s known as an early life crisis. This is a result of everything around you moving so quickly and you feeling like you need to catch up and be one step ahead of the curve. It’s a problem many young people face when trying to decipher what direction to take their life in and many people stay in this crisis for months to years at a time.

There is however a solution to this issue and it’s using 3 particular stepping stones to help provide clarity on what next step to take, here are the stepping stones:

1. Finding your Ikigai.

If you’re unsure of what Ikegai means, it’s essentially the intersection of what you love what you can be paid for what the world needs and what you’re good at. Early on this is hard to figure out, but making this your mission to figure this out and putting all of your focus into discovering the answer to those 4 questions will give you clarity and a clear next step forward which is ultimately what you need.

2. Look at people that already are living, the life that you want to live.

Although you may not know what you want to do with your life, hopefully, you’ll know the kind of life that you aspire to have and because everything is online these days you can find people that are living your dream life and reverse engineer their journey to figure out how they got their start. This is a method that was never available prior to this day and age so it’s one to take advantage of.

3. Start doing something.

The last thing you want to be doing is doing nothing and waiting for something to come around that peaks your interest that you pursue. Start laying the foundations for yourself to build something on top of. An example of this would be building a personal brand, start documenting your mundane life and others will relate, from here you can take it in any direction you want when you find your purpose. You’ll also gain experience and it will keep you busy day to day.

ACTIONABLE NEXT STEPS:

Take the first step in exploring the above, who is living a life that you aspire to have? What can you start doing to give yourself a first step?

TAKEAWAYS:

1. Finding your Ikigai.

2. Look at people that already are living, the life that you want to live.

3. Start doing something.
