Have you ever felt like you don't know what to do with your life? Have you felt lost, aimlessly, that all you have done is waste time and that you have wasted the best moments of your life?
Until recently, when I looked around me, all I saw was that "everyone" had their lives resolved, except me. That everyone had a routine, a perfect and orderly life, that everyone earned enough money to do whatever they wanted, "everyone except me," and I wondered:
What do I have to do to get the perfect job? How do I make decisions in my life if I don't even know what I want to do with it? Why am I getting so stressed? What is the next step in my life?
I wondered why everyone seemed to have everything figured out and easy to reach, as I spent my days sitting, "stalking" people I had not spoken to in years on Facebook and analyzing my own existence. So frustrated was I that I even googled "what to do with your life when you get tired of planning so much?"
First of all, there is nothing positive about comparing yourself to others, so stop.
Google did not answer my question, but the conversation with one of my best friends, "when you don't know what to do, you have to learn to live with uncertainty, to love it and flow with it, " he told me.
I have tried so hard in recent years to be better, to learn, to live each day to the fullest and now I come across this, where is all that I have learned? Why do I keep getting frustrated about the future?
Then I understood that nobody has a solved life, we all deal with different situations and problems, only that we are not publishing them on social networks.
"Stop comparing yourself with all the new bloggers, with those with the" great body ", with the one who lives on a trip or the one who is most popular, the one with the perfect job or life," I told myself because the truth is Each and every one of us is dealing with a level of uncertainty in our lives.
Yes, we all get to a point where we wonder 'what's next? Now, what do I do with my life? There is rarely an easy answer.
We stagnate, feel like we can't open the door in front of us, and judge ourselves for it, digging deeper into the problem of being trapped. Time to dig yourself up!
What to do when you don't know what to do?
Here is what I have learned throughout my life trying to fix it, no matter what you do, the important thing is that you do something.
It is worth stalling, it is worth feeling alone and stuck, what is not worth is staying there doing nothing.
Travel/know/experience/feel, that life is full of opportunities.
Any mistake you make next is only going to lead you to learn from it, it will make you stronger and absolutely nothing will happen if you make a mistake. The moment you make the decision to do "something," even if you don't know what it is yet, it will take you to the next step.
For me, learning to change "no" to "yes" is what has taken me from one place to another, from one experience to another, and to grow along the way.
One day, a couple of years ago, I had the opportunity to go on a trip, «no», I said to myself, «not because I'm afraid to go alone, not because I don't have money, not because I'm tired, not because I have other options. things to do, 'but then I asked myself:
"And why not" yes "?"
In less than an hour and my plane ticket and my suitcase ready, without exaggeration, it turned out to be a trip that changed my life.

On the other hand, not long ago, one of my best friends lost her job, so she made the decision to go to all the states of Mexico that she did not know.
