The Answer Is There Has To Be More To Life Than This | Kingsley Grant | Episode TML168

When you are feeling agitated or restless in what it is you’re currently doing, the culprit might be this question: Is there more to life than this?
You go to work. You come home. You spend time with the family. You go to bed. You wake up and do it all over again. You can almost do work on auto-pilot. It’s not as challenging as it once was. You are no longer enjoying work.
What’s happening?
Why are you feeling this way?

My friend, I believe it’s because there is a part of you that is unfulfilled; dis-satisfied … it’s asking for more.
That was me a few years back.
I had reached my midlife and felt like I had done all I could do where I was work-wise. I gave it my all. I was learning new things but what I did was the same.
I too felt like there was more and I began to “search.”
I did find what I was looking for, which led to my resignation after a 21-year employment at the same place in the same position. My pay and benefits did reflect my years of experience but it was below par.
However, that wasn’t my dis-content.
It was that I believed there was more to life than this – what I was doing.
In this episode, I share 3 reasons why you might be thinking about transition after realizing there has to be more to life than this – what you are doing.
The 3 reasons are:
1. Been there done that
2. Looking for significance and leaving a legacy
3. Having meaning to life (peace and contentment)
These 3 reasons were elaborated on. You’ll hear some personal stories one of which had to do with my mother before she died.
You will find a blog article that covers more about this topic here.
