Re: Finding direction sucks when you don't have a compass

OH MAN!!!!!!!! I can resonate with EVERYONE ON THIS!!!!!! I’m exactly where everyone is right now. I’m 31 and feel like I am trying to beat the clock! I have no savings, no real specialized schooling (except one year of graphics! Just a general university B.A!!!), debt up to my eyeballs, no real relationship, no assets. AWESOMMMMMEEE!!! I go on Facebook and want to delete myself every single day cause I see everyone moving along with families and engagements and marriages, and new jobs! BARF!!!!! Like whatever!!!!! and they are doing fun stuff like going to the Olympics (which if I actually took the time to plan 4 years ago I could have done the same!) I have to stop comparing myself because it’s driving me batty! I feel I have all these things I know I can do as well, and have a lot of interests, but I don’t know which one to focus on!!!! BRAIN!!!! FOCUS ALREADY!!! I really know that I want to help people but how?? Therapist? ummm…more school and money. A Business owner…ummm…yeah. I would if I knew what my business would be. Haha…I feel like a 12 year old reject friend amongst my friends. They have houses, and mortgages and families and relationships…I can barely feed my dog! Poor thing really. Baha….and all this energy needs to be managed. I’ve started taking the course THE ARTIST’S WAY and highly recommend it to anyone trying to unblock their fears, and creativity. It keeps you focused and committed on yourself and brings you through some ups and downs that’s for sure. It’s a 12 week course and I’m on week 5! I’ve tried it 2 times before but lost focus and didn’t really complete it because other people were telling me I should do it. This time I did it for myself. SO for anyone struggling like me…it’s an amazing tool to really get to know yourself and really uncover all those amazing ideas you’ve had locked up!!!! and makes you play and be young at heart and take care of yourself!!! I think most of us judge ourselves or feel useless or stupid, or like itsallgood25, a screw up!!! I get that. I make the stupidest mistakes at work…missing a word here and there and my boss likes to make it known! Even though he makes even stupider mistakes where I’ll throw it back at him! BAHA! This course allows you to forgive yourself and just create!!! Let the ideas flow through you…let our gifts shine!!! We have been living in a world that doesn’t get us, and being in that kind of world makes you try to be something we are not.

This has gone all over the place! Anyways…that’s my answer to this.
