Do any of these situations seem familiar?
You try to talk to your current friends and family about your interests and your desires, but they just end up looking confused and you end up feeling frustrated and out of place.
You attempt to network, to put yourself out there, but after a few half-hearted attempts to connect with other people, you give up and leave early or sit off by yourself watching other people talk to each other.
You get really excited about a new discovery or a new idea and tell a close friend all about it. They start questioning you or pointing out all the reasons it can’t possibly work and you end up deflated and disappointed, wondering if it was all that great of an idea anyway.
You’ve spent years trying to live up to other people’s expectations, to achieve success on society’s terms, only to realize it was never what you really wanted. Now you’re unsure how to live life on your own terms.
You know something is off, that there’s more to life than making ends meet or acquiring more stuff. You try to put the more important things first, to follow your heart, but you always end up back in survival mode.
You’ve felt confused and lost for so long, you don’t even know what you want, much less how to tell others about it.
You’ve withdrawn from so much of life that you’ve lost the joy and the sense of adventure you had (or wish you'd had) when you were younger.
You’ve been so stuck in over-thinking and over-analyzing, hearing the same self-defeating thoughts over and over, that it’s impossible to take any action.
