I feel lost.
Searching for a roadmap to navigate the complexity of life.
As I turn 20, I feel dissatisfied as I've only accomplished a fraction of my New Year's resolutions.
From childhood, I’ve harbored clear aspirations for my adult self, but as time passes, I feel increasingly uncertain, as if my childhood dreams have faded from clear view.
Feeling lost, I yearn for guidance — a map to navigate the complexities of life.
It’s easy to limit ourselves for not having all the answers, but the truth is that uncertainty is a natural part of the human experience.
We may feel lost when it comes to choosing a direction in life, but that doesn't make us unintelligent.
It’s a journey. Life is about finding ourselves, understanding, and trusting in our ability to make the right decisions.
Think of earning points in a video game to level up our character. As our character becomes stronger, navigating through adversity becomes easier.
Life is a marathon, not a sprint. Go at your pace — Philip C. McGraw
For a marathon, you need consistency. If you take off faster, using your energy completely on the starting stage, you’ll eventually lose the game.
Endurance is required to make the most out of this challenging journey.
So please take ownership of your current life circumstances, and define where you want to go, and who you want to be.
Define what is important for you and go after it!
