Why “I Don’t Know” is Confusing Your Purpose
I am sure you get
these questions all the time. What do you want to do with your life? What
careers or jobs would you absolutely love doing? What areas excite you? Where
do you want to be in 10 years? Have you ever sat there and even got the ugly
sense of anger while spitting out to the inquirer the rubbish phrase, “I don’t
know?”
See you’ve come to a
point you tried several different avenues of leisure and spectacle, but alas
you find yourself staring out the window, just daydreaming about not showing up
for the position you currently sit.
“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more
painful than the risk it took to blossom.”
-Anais Nin
Now of course there
is some leeway, you need to find yourself, you need to find that spark of passion
to intrigue the ultimate purpose. But, after you’ve completed your soul
searching, you have to one day face yourself and the realism of dreams that
reside within you.
If you are not one of
these types of people, then you may know them. They seem lost because of the uncertainty.
They are unsatisfied with daily activities, in all honesty, they cannot seem to
find resolution to their revolution.
When we repeatedly
express I don’t know, we are given
such limitations on what we can conquer.
“I don’t know what I
want to do.”
“I don’t know where I
want to go.”
“I don’t know who I
want to be.”
See those above
statements? They have periods on the end of them for a reason, you aren’t
asking yourself, you’re telling yourself you haven’t a clue where you wish life
would lead you. The sad truth is you are confusing your life’s purpose. Maybe you
don’t know, that’s fine, but stop saying it, to others and yourself.
Simple fix, take out
DON’T.
Change the sentence
to “I know,” and eventually it will all come together for your benefit.
See how powerful
statements are when you reconfigure that way they make you feel. Even if it isn’t
true. The more you think it, feel it, the more you believe it. Tell others you
are figuring things out. Tell yourself things are going to be so awesome and
amazing you cannot even believe how blessed your life is about to be.
“You can start out with nothing, and out of nothing and out of no way,
a way will be made.”
