Don't you know what you want in your life? Read this.

It happens to me very often that I face a blank page and I can't find the right words. There is a big barrier between what I have in me and the world. The words don’t form sentences easily in my mind.

When I'm in this situation, I always start at the same place: what is the purpose of what I'm writing? Then I start looking for the words through bullets points, keeping in mind what I want to transmit to the reader and what is the takeaway.

I might not know the end result, how it is going to look like but I have a goal to aim for. Something worth fighting for.

Bullet points and life purpose

This is similar to life. You might have many wills in you. Many “I would like to <enter desire>”. But when you don’t have the bullet points of what is important for you defined, there is a high likelihood that you will get lost in your daily life and won’t achieve those dreams.

There is a set of questions I ask myself on a regular basis to keep that order in my mind. These have helped me leave a place where I didn’t want to be in my life and work on myself in a way I wanted to. My definition is different than yours. You are unique, so you have to define what you want and fight for it.

Many of the things in life that are worth it require hard-work, dedication and consistency. These might be a relationship, a project or improving your well-being.

I created My Ideal Life app with the questions that helped me take action.

Do you want to stay where you are or do you want to fight for your dreams?
