I am a young girl. Growing up in the World of Opportunities. I have always had options for mostly everything, even if my family was poor back in the days. I have always taken my time to choose what to eat when I go to the restaurant, but luckily I have got better by the years, because I now have a limit of what I can choose out of the menu, since I am pescetarian.
Talking about decision-making. I am very terrible at this. I often has to call my mom or friends for their opinions, or even ask them: "what would you do, if you were me/in this kind of situation?". I also fall easily for others opinion and advice when I do not know the right one myself. Which is a bad habbit, because I am not letting me knowing myself good enough.
I am 23 years old. I have no idea what I want to be in the future. I have no clue what to do next year after the graduation. I do know for sure that I will not study for a higher degree right away. I often ask myself questions that I cannot answer and then the questions start to become worries. I do worry a lot about my future, of how it would be and how it would end up.
Elders they always told me: "Don't worry. You are born into the World of Opportunities. You have many roads to go".
Why do they make it sound so easy? In the reality, it is not easy at all. Especially if you still are that type of person who does not quite know what you want to be and want to do in the future. I know I am still so young, but I do not to waste years doing a job which I do not love and that there is someone out there who is dreaming of getting, then I would not only steal a job for that person, but I am also stealing the dream of him/her.
If I only knew what my dream really is, what I really want and where I want to be, it would be so much easier for me to make a plan, or take one of the many opportunities I have in my life. But right now, I am holding so many strings and I do not know which one to pull and which one to release. I just hold on to every single of them and I do nothing about it.
So, tell me, how many opportunities do you have for your future? What do you want to do? Where do you want to be? Who do you want to be? Whose dreams are you chasing?
Simple questions, but it will take you half an hour(at least) to figure out, unless you have already gone through this a couple of times.
If you have any tips or advice, I would gladly know!
Have a super weekend!
