What Can you do if you Feel Behind your life?

Postby grecy0905 » 12 Nov 2016, 09:01

Do you remember what you want 5 years before? Does it correlate to what you are doing right now? If the answer is yes, then you really plan what you want to become. You really aim for this and you became successful. If the answer is No, what do you think happened? What can you do to solve this kind of issues in your life?

We all have gone through this phase in life when we feel we are behind in life. We see our colleagues having the family of their own, having their own business, busy with traveling and all in all successful. Every person I know is struggling for this. This is like a sickness that makes you feel sad and empty with your life. This needs to be solved.

There are 2 things that you could do to overcome this sickness. Just always remember that this is not a one-time decision but a phase to phase process that you made every single day because if not, you keep coming back from the old self you are upsetting with.



Remember your decision about your life before and the reason why you made that decision.

In life, we made a decision in every decision. For example, part of your plan is to take Medicine Courses to be Doctor. It is what your family really wants for you and you do too. However, there comes the family financial problem that you need to take charge. Medicine classes require you to pay for studying and your family needs money. You need to stop from taking Medicine class because you need to find a job. Good thing you find a job but then you are left behind after learning that most of your batch mates are now getting their internship.

It will make you feel bad about yourself because the plan is ruin and your dream stops from happening, however, if you did not do what you need to do, do you think you saved your family from the problem? Imagine what happened if you become selfish about it.



Do not compare your path to someone else’s path

When you fall behind with life you will able to hear these words coming from you “I should be with my classmates and have internship”, “I should be travelling like my friends now” “I should have my own family now” “I should have my own business now” and so on and so forth. Stop. Stop giving yourself an anxiety by worrying and comparing yourself with others. The comparison is a thief of joy. It is like banging your self-esteem on the wall.

What you need to do is to create a transparent strong wall where you will not see anyone from left to right. You need to focus on yourself and what you want to become at present. Stop stalking your classmates at Social Network. Stop looking at yourself down. Don’t pity yourself. That is what upset is coming from. It needs your discipline to focus yourself alone. Write what you want to happen with your life and starts making them happen one by one. Be committed to the plan for yourself. Problems are always there but just focus now on what makes your dreams to come alive, focus on YOU and nothing else.



Remember, you might be left behind, but it is just the number of years that was left behind but not your energy to make things happen in your life. There is always enough time if you want your dreams to come true.

If you feel left behind in your life, you should think positive and take corrective measures wherever possible. To avoid the feeling of 'being left behind', it is always better to be among good, cheerful and positive people.

Second para completely describes. I was very upset in my life because I compared myself with others. I still do sometimes. I also looked at happy lives of others on social media. now I am not on social media and focusing just on myself. That helped a lot.

Yes, I agree too. And also it is not that bad to feel you are left behind, but what is bad is if you are not doing anything about it, that is why I made this article to observe ourselves and do something about it.

If you feel you did not fulfil your dreams or goals back in the years, all you need to ask yourself first is where did i go wrong and what didn't I do right then from there you will probably get to know the reason and work around it. It's only after you have done that, that you will embark on it and things will work out. I have done that before and it worked pretty well. I just went back on it and focused.

When I am contemplating, these are the exact things that goes to my mind. I always think about what were my mistakes and what are the ways to improve myself from that mistakes because surely I will learn but the real deal is to remember something from that experience.

Well, for me I have never felt this way.Maybe because of my kind of family where no one pressurizes one for anything.I believe I'm just living my life and no one is better than me by my standard.I never measure my success through anybody parameter and I'm good just that way.

I do feel some sort of insecurity should I try to compare myself with my previous self or some of my friends. I am human I am not immune to this kind of issues, a work in progress to becoming self sufficient and strong. When I feel down for not being able to reach for my dreams and goals I just remind myself how beautiful that last 5 minutes that passed because I was able to contribute something on a forum and who knows that could be a gem to someone needing a bit of a boost. So why ruin an otherwise perfect moment?

If we can stop comparing our lives to anyone else. I believe most of the issues will be easy to solve. The problem starts building up when we look at pictures of friends/family on social media and you start thinking they are happier than you or they have more money.

Life is like an institution our existence of is like a lesson to us.We live to share pains and happiness.Where ever our mistakes are we need to pray and make amendments and if it's good let's give thanks to God and pray for more opportunities to come our ways
