When you were a kid, you must have had an idea of what you wanted in the future. It might have been a really crazy idea that sounded fun and fantastic at the time. As you aged and matured, you would have started to think more seriously about what your life would be like.
You’ve probably thought extensively about the kind of job and career you wanted to be in, and what you needed to do to get there. Maybe you saw a house in your future, with a car, a family, and a pet.
Perhaps you saw yourself gallivanting across the globe, from one adventure to the next, as you explored the wide world, meeting new people, and discovering new cultures.
Maybe you saw yourself as an actor or artist, finding new ways to express yourself or creating works of art that you could be proud of; or maybe you saw yourself as a teacher, bringing up the newer generation, and thinking about how you would change the world one mind at a time.
You likely had an idea of what this life would look like for yourself, but when looking at your life now, could you say you’re living the life you wanted for yourself?
If you took the time to reflect, you might see yourself living some of what you wanted, or possibly that you don’t have not enough of that life you wanted. However, that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Life happens, and our priorities in different stages of our life change; and it’s reasonable to have new expectations and visions for ourselves.
You may have originally wanted to travel the world solo, but fell in love with someone and decided to settle down instead, or you got a job offer that you couldn’t resist, so your travelling adventures are on hold, indefinitely.
A lot of people in mid-career, have a type of life crisis where they start looking back at what they wanted and where they actually ended up. Some people are happy and fine with how that turned out, but a lot of people find something lacking, and go searching for some kind of new meaning and direction.
Sometimes it is an entirely new career switch, or even lifestyle change. Some people end up wanting to do something more meaningful, like helping other people in some way.
Is this the life you wanted for yourself, or is something missing that you’re searching for?
Join us at College of Allied Educators to learn more about yourself, what motivates you, and how you can find happiness, meaning, and success in work, love, and life.
