If You Feel Lost in Life, Be Brutally honest with yourself
You’ll never be able to fix your life until you admit it’s broken. Don’t pretend everything is okay when it’s not. You need to take full responsibility for your life up to this point. Admit that you’ve made poor decisions. Admit that you haven’t been working as hard as you should be.
Most people would rather die in a pool of their own rationalizations than change, which is understandable. Honest self-reflection doesn’t feel good. It’s brutal. It hurts. We don’t really want that feedback from the world that shows us who we really are. We don’t want it, but we need it. You need it.
Stop bullshitting yourself. You know the answers to why you’re feeling lost but you just don’t want to accept them. There are a handful of variables we all know we need to work on to stop feeling lost:
- Find a career we don’t absolutely hate (more on that in a second)
- Start taking better care of your body and mind
- Keep the right people in your life
