IS ANYTHING ROBBING YOUR JOY?

If you are completely happy and life is simply humming along, this blog isn’t for you.  In fact, it probably would better for you not to read it because I wouldn’t want you to read anything that might rob your joy.

On the other hand, maybe you’re experiencing some stress and anxiety due to things like relationship struggles, debts, illness, job challenges, or personal loss.  Or maybe you’re overwhelmed with the busyness with no time to relax.  Do you sometimes find stuck in a rut and asking yourself, “Is this all there is to life?”  If any of these things are true for you, how are you processing it?  Are you thinking, “I’m doomed.  It’s never going to get better”?

The primary purpose of this blog is to hopefully help you realize that today is not your destination.  It’s just one day in your journey.  At the same time, it’s the first day of the rest of your life.  And there is reason for hope.  

If you’re wondering how start moving out of this rut, here’s one idea that has helped many people including myself…

TAKE OR MAKE SOME TIME TO START PICTURING WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE YOUR LIFE TO LOOK LIKE 5, 10, 20 YEARS OR MORE DOWN THE ROAD.  


Things like...
-Who do you want to become in areas like character and spirituality?
-Do you hope for great relationships at home?  At work? In life?
-Do you hope to have peace and joy in your life?
-Do you hope to be debt free?

Seriously, please spend quality time on this.  Talk about it with your mate or a trusted friend.  Then WRITE IT DOWN and keep it visible in various places that you will see it regularly.  If you do this, I can nearly promise you that it will be the very best use of your time.  This is the first step of finding purpose and joy.

Although some people interpret this phrase from The Book of Truth differently, I personally believe that it is relevant to each of our lives… “WITHOUT VISION, THE PEOPLE PERISH”.

I think you're right Roger. The times in my life when I've felt melancholy
have been times when I didn't have clear direction or a sense of purpose. Thanks for this post.

Thanks for your comments Anita. It does seem that we don't have clear direction, we tend to wander... most times aimlessly.
