It's true I've lacked vision for quite some time now.
God, where am I going in life? What should I do?
I've been learning that what I do is less important than who I am.
When you know who you are, you know what to do. And life flows naturally and freely.
When you don't know who you are, you search for who you are in what you do.
SO, instead of figuring out what I should do, I've been figuring out who I am--- what moves me, what motivates me, what drives me, what makes my heart beat.
I took the strength finders test and I feel it was quite accurate for my current state.
Here were my top five in this order:
1) Positivity
2) Belief
3) Empathy
4) Developer
5) Harmony
The strength finders book gives a description of what these strengths look like, how you can utilize them in your life, what situations/jobs to avoid, what situations/jobs to be in, and what strengths to look for in other people.
I found it all revelatory and fascinating.
I feel like I understand a lot more about myself, and I feel encouraged and capable.
I'm ready to conquer the world! Well, almost.
As I study more about my strengths, I want to study about occupations that I would thrive in. I want to set up a five year plan and start taking the steps to get to my future.
This adventure is truly thrilling. God is providing the people, the finances, the support, and the love that I need to walk in my destiny.
I'm filled with excitement about the future, and joy about life!
Thank you God for taking such great care of me! I am excited to see what the future beholds! =)
Is it bad that I hate five-year plans? I dunno if it's cuz I'm scared or I just love living in the moment or what but I really don't like to think about that.

Ewwwwww...
haha, no it's not bad at all. Everyone is different in how they thrive and operate.
ReplyDeleteThe main reason I want to set one up is because I want something to shoot for. Obviously it will be subject to change, but without vision, I feel like sometimes I'm not going anywhere.
I just want to think about my life and where I want to be in five years/what I want to accomplish. Things I want to do like travel and see the world----prioritize what is important for me, what is not so important---so I can then feel good about making decisions that are aligned with what I want most in life--
It's nothing set in stone, just helps me gain some perspective--but I totes respect the fact that you enjoy living spontaneously---there is nothing wrong with that! It is fun and full of adventure--If thats how you thrive, then that is wonderful!! =)
