When the path you see in front of you is very clear, it is clear that it is not your path.

The problem is, when the path isn’t clear, it’s terrifying.

I know. I’ve been there.

That’s why I’ve been documenting my journey for years through my writing.

1. You seek solitude to hear your inner voice

“Solitude doesn’t mean being alone; it means being empty.” — Victor Hugo

You seek solitude, not torment yourself, but to quiet the noise.

You want to escape all the “shoulds”: you should study this, invest in Bitcoin, get married, have kids, or try dance classes or pole dancing.

Should, should, should…

Everyone seems to know what’s best for you better than you do.

That’s why you isolate yourself.
