relationships<\/a> that don’t make them happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFocus Your Energy Somewhere Else<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Somewhere along the road, you got distracted and fell off track, and fell into monotony. Life threw a hurdle at you that moved your attention off your dreams and goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of course, you said you would revisit your plans as soon as money was available, you paid all the debts, and when the kids were all grown up. But that never happened, and a monotonous routine was what you got.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So now, you have to change your mindset and shift gears. Now, it’s time to spend your energy focusing on how you want to spend your life and time. What are the goals you want to accomplish? How do you plan on getting there? And what will it take?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And then start taking small steps towards making your goals a reality. Plan what you want, gather all the ingredients like you would if you were baking a cake, and then follow the recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of course, this journey will take more time and energy than a cake recipe, but the results? They’re so much more satisfying and fulfilling than you think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let Go of Your Old Habits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
How can you expect to change if you continue to hold onto old habits and old beliefs about yourself? You can never transform your life, health, and future if you’re gripping onto the way things have been with a death grip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So let go. Let go of those beliefs. And declutter that mess– that mental and physical mess that’s no longer serving what you’re working towards. At this point, it’s unnecessary heavy baggage that’s dragging you down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Purge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The Purge is more like “pruning.” So start pruning your life, mind, home, and spirit of what’s blocking your vision and weighing you down. You can change your journey, but only when you put in the effort to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The truth about life, especially the middle of life, is that you have a whole second half for all kinds of possibilities. Yes, you have some baggage– you’ve gone through countless heartbreaks, disappointments, betrayals, and hurt. Instead of dwelling on those countless memories, start believing in the endless possibilities for your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Define What Success is to You<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
What do you define success as? Is it happiness? Job fulfillment? We start our path in life thinking our jobs will be glamorous, exciting, and lucrative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All the decisions you made and that energy you pushed into achieving your younger self-thought was “success” might have been misguided because the end goal is happiness. And that didn’t happen, but it still can. You can choose to be happy as best as you can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finding Your Purpose<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
There comes a stage in everyone’s lives when they debate whether they need a sense of purpose or not? Are we just supposed to sit by and enjoy the rest of our days? When we’re young, the world is full of possibilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Students are just starting their career paths, young parents are starting their families, and the rest? They may have already gone through all the shebang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But later on, having a purpose in life or re-finding that purpose is essential. And it’s not exclusive to the younger crowd. Even research has proven that having sense throughout one’s lifespan and especially in adulthood results in better physical and mental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Path to Your Spiritual Journey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
And now we have come to the end of this journey– it is time to start your exciting and fulfilling journey of spirituality and purpose. Now, at the beginning of any spiritual journey, you may feel slightly or dramatically overwhelmed. You’ll also think that you are not sure where to even begin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But like any change you want to make in your life, start small; otherwise, you may end up giving up. But remember, this is about you and your evolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You may have all the answers you want inside yourself, or you may need some help finding your footing in this path. But remember that your spiritual journey will always be unique to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
