How to make life worth living?

Many believe that to see one’s life as worth living you need to find meaning within it, what does that mean? Finding meaning in your life is the belief that your life contributions matter to others and yourself, the feeling that your life makes sense, and the feeling that you are actively pursuing and fulfilling your goals. Everyone will find the meaning of their life differently, some will figure it out early in life while others take decades, and, unfortunately, some also do not ever find the meaning that makes their struggle feel worth it. It is important for people to find meaning or a calling in life because it gives them a reason to keep pushing through the bad days, without it many become hopeless, depressed, and even suicidal.

To find your life’s meaning can be a difficult task for many, if not everyone, and many go through life feeling lost because of that. A good way to find meaning is to set clear and concise goals for the future. These goals can be big or as small as getting to class on time, but as you work towards completing these goals it will give you a drive to accomplish something you may not have had before, this drive can help some find their meaning. Another way to find meaning in life is to help others by volunteering or in other ways. Doing even the smallest deed to help someone in need can give people the boost they need to see how big of an effect their actions can have on people, which may make them find their calling in helping others.
