For a good couple of years in my life I was completely focused on what I had to achieve.
Many would consider this to be a good trait; to be able to focus on a goal and pursue it! For me it was a burden since once you feel you ‘have’ to achieve something in life, the fun aspect of it is nearly instantaneously taken away.
This was when I realised I was focusing on the wrong things and I was making priorities that were not true to my heart. This is possibly the moment one can say they feel lost. At least that was how I felt.
The confusion of realising you’re in the wrong path and to not quite understand what really fulfils you can be overwhelming at times. But I can confidently say that this was the best realisation I ever had.
It is like being uncomfortably numb for years and years and suddenly have a big bucket of ice cold water thrown over your head and after the shock you feel alive, you feel again!
