Aimless No More
April 19, 2023
Have you ever felt aimless? You're going somewhere, but you're not sure where you are moving in one direction or another, but it's not necessarily taking you where you want to go. In fact, the question is, where do you want to go? There is a cure for aimlessness.
Most of us are aimless when we don't aim. In fact, that's the essence of aimlessness. We don't aim at anything. And therefore the dictionary definition is we are flailing without purpose, without direction, and without gratification. So what is the cure?
What is the solution that takes us from the place of no purpose, no direction, and no gratification? It is this. We decide, we focus, and we take aim.
Decide, focus, and take aim.
Decide on a direction, a destination, a place where you want to be, when you get where you are going.
The second is focus on how you will get there and develop a plan.
The third is take aim daily and moment by moment and make every shot count.
Don't waste your arrows on things that won't land on the bullseye. Work with a coach or with your journal or with a friend to make a plan to do these three things. Decide on your destination. Focus on how you will get there and take aim. Then, make every shot count.
You will be aimless no more.
You will find that when you wake up in the morning, it will be with purpose. When you start to move, it will be in a reasonable and purposeful direction. hen, you will find that when you lay your head back down on your pillow in the evening, it will be with a sense of gratification that you've made another day's journey for where you are going to that place
That is the end result of your decision, your focus and your aim. It is one of the great things in life to come to that place where we know where we're going and we know why we're going there, and we spend our energy to get there.
All the best to you on this next leg of your wonderful journey.
