Are you trying to pace yourself and find a sense of direction in life? It can feel hard to get a clear sense of direction sometimes. Particularly when there are so many external influences that are advertising a perfect life, in the perfect clothes, perfect house and perfect partner, family etc. Getting out of the cloudy fog of misguided influence can take time. Getting some space and time to assess where you are and what you want in your life also takes time. Sometimes it’s no wonder that sense of “feeling lost” comes about. But what if you looked at your sense of “feeling lost” as a good starting point rather than something negative. It could mean that you are in the process of change, you are in the process of experiencing your own personal growth and evolution. You could be in the process of letting go of some old stories you have to this point lived your life by. And you are now working to put those behind you and are starting to create more uplifting self-affirming stories. That process takes time, and in the transition space, it is understandable to recognise that feeling of being a bit lost.  So, if you recognise that feeling, pause, and tell yourself that this is a good starting point to move forward from.

There are many ways to manage the “feeling lost” state. And what’s important is that you find what works best for you. Advice includes, not fighting the feeling, accepting it for what it is, not judging it, or seeing it as a negative. Take time to reflect on what is going on around you and within you that could be stirring up those feelings. Allow yourself to look at where you have come from and give yourself time and space to explore all the options and possibilities you would like to create and envision for yourself going forward. Wondering where you would even start? In this podcast listen to the 5 foundational considerations as a guide to finding your life direction, and focus.
