We all go through major life changes and drawbacks. Some of them could make us doubt about our path in life but always try to keep a lookout for 9 major signs that you are actually on the right track in life.
You are thankful for everything you already have
Although it is tempting to complain about what you do not have, you have chosen to focus and cherish those things that you already have obtained and take it from there. A grateful mind makes you enjoy the present moment more, while you keep working towards achieving your goals and dreams.
You are proud of your strengths and own your weaknesses
Not only do you take advantage of your own strengths, you are also able to accept your flaws. As long as they bring you closer to your dreams, you do not mind making mistakes and take them as live lessons along the way. You are too excited about what opportunities life brings you tomorrow that you simply do not beat yourself over the mistakes you have made in the past. You have learnt to forgive yourself and move on.
You never stop learning.
You believe that learning does not stop at a degree and understands that every day comes with new lessons. Therefore, you try to expose yourself every day to different situations and inform yourself on everything that happens around you. This way, you continue to learn new things and keep improving yourself, every day again.
You have a better idea of what you want to achieve in life
You start to see your own goals and dreams. It makes you feel energised to achieve them. You have a feeling that things go more smoothly and begin to fall into place. Life seems easier. Also, those things that usually distract you, seem not to exist anymore.
You have learned to love yourself
You feel more at peace with yourself. This is a major sign that you have come to embrace and love yourself more than ever before. When you have reached this state, you stop worrying about what others think of you and cease trying to act according to what others think is right. You know your value & self-worth and if others do not see them, you know that it is their own problem.
You are able to stand up for yourself
You do not feel obliged to share the same thoughts with others. When you have a different viewpoint you have the courage to express this. You are not afraid of confrontations anymore and address conflicting opinions head-on. Fighting for your ideas based on solid arguments brings you far and overcome the toughest challenges.
You realise that it is all in your hands
Although you can count on your friends and family for help, you realise that you need to decide for yourself eventually. Being the driver of your own life, you ensure that you take care of yourself and involve in all the things that brings you closer to your goals and dreams. Think for example of making new friends, spending quality time with your loved ones, studying, working and traveling around the world. Along the way, you also keep fine-tuning your goals and make strides towards the future.
You have mastered the art of letting go
You have learned to stop chasing things, situations and people that do not add value to your life. You let go of these that are not worth fighting for. Those that are meant to be in your life will be.
You are able to give back to society and pay forward
You do not keep the learnings, experiences and achievements to yourself. Instead you try to inspire and benefit other people with it as well. By giving back to society, whether it is through voluntary work or paying forward, you hope to spread sprinkles of happiness and make the lives of other people better.
Have you come across some of these signs already? Well done! That means that you are on the right track. Keep shining on.
Until next time!
Love always,
