What is life without a goal? Without a purpose or something to work towards? Where do we derive our motivation to continue on the journey? Big questions I have been kicking around in my head while not posting these last few days....
This is not going to be my usual @Actifit post....
I need a joint to be able start into this one.... I just gave my 2 weeks notice from work! After 8 years with Portofino Bakery I have gone out to find new employment and landed a pretty wicked job through my soon to be ex-landlord.... life right they sell their house and we get evicted then through those same people I end up embracing the change in the air and jump both feet into it deciding it’s now or never to find the job I will love only to have it literally handed to me once I set my mind to it! Story of my life, I know it’s the right path when it’s a huge step I am uncertain of and I seriously cannot be any easier... on the verge of recognizing gods will some would say...
So to answer my questions... life with out a goal is to have no purpose and nothing to derive meaning of your daily actions which relates deeply to your spiritual happiness... I was in that place for years and had not realized it till recently really making a goal out of eliminating my debts.... I further realized the one aspect of my daily life which hinders that on a large scale... my Job as a baker has paid the bills but I do not believe I can advance within the company rather the opposite that it has been holding me back on many levels including personal growth while on my journey of self discovery these last few years...
Purpose does not have to come through employment don’t get me wrong but it’s a good start.... I set the goal of being debt free and I am still working towards that but I also decided about that same time I want to feel good again, feel good in my own skin again, I want to love myself so I may be able to more effectively express that love to others.... this is where the constant impact of a negative culture was holding me back even though I am not innocent in contributing to that negative culture... I tend to mirror my environment...
Change is in the air and I have decided to embrace it, wish me luck everyone 🤞
PS don’t you worry Steemians I have not left merely dealing with life!
