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.
