Finding Direction: Trusting the Light in Uncertain Times

Nobody who ever gave his best regretted it.-George Halas

Sometimes, we need to get a closer look when analyzing a situation.

This usually happens when things are not going along as planned.

It’s one thing if you have a guide’s manual to inspect an item and see if all the parts are present.

If it has been assembled the correct way, then it will be easy to find the problem and thus the solution.

When confronted with new conditions, for example, taking the entrepreneur route vs. securing a job.

There are a lot of avenues that need to be discovered and taken into consideration.

Personally, stepping outside of your comfort zone would bring about feelings that you may or may not resonate with.

You can logically make sense of what is going on but your feelings need an anchor to bring about familiarity. What would be that anchor?

It would be different for everyone! It might involve the type of framework that you prefer to operate on.

Maybe it is a specific task that allows for your productivity to shine.

Probably, the dedicated set hours that you spend on a project can bring about order and convenience.

Opportunity

The next upcoming prospect will bring practical value to your disposal, whether it be monetary, gaining support, or adding a useful feature to your daily routine; it will bring about noticeable change.

You have to consider that you need to know what you are working with.

For example, if you are considering trying out a new food item, a little background research can be helpful. If you know that you are a picky eater but also want to expand your sources of good nutrients, then having a good idea of what it tastes like can be helpful.

Do you have a recipe in mind? If you do not have a plan, your picky self might “accidentally” forget this item in the fridge. Money is going down the drain!

Also, you might need to be slow to move and best use your focus to gain more information and consider your feelings.

Let’s say, you are being gifted $500 and due to your excitement, you are considering making a purchase.

Is this purchase going to benefit you in the long run?

Why not make a plan about 10 things that you can use with that money and make a nice list of pros and cons?

I believe that you will be more satisfied with your decision.

Challenge

A plan of action cannot be devoid of what you want.

But do not become stuck once you’ve made a decision.

You will figure out eventually if you took the correct route.

If assistance is required of you and you have the energy in the tank then by no means do the right thing.

Are you predicting who will borrow what and how it will affect your actions?

It is one thing to do what is expected of you, but that loyalty trait needs to provide fruit in the end.

You might want to imagine going from A to B within a time frame or using a specific method.

Life comes about with detours and bumps on the road, you need to be prepared for these inconveniences.

Even though you are taking the responsible path, that does not mean that you do not get a respite.

Guidance

There comes a time when you are clear about whether you are compromising yourself in a situation. To what end, though?

Is it more about going through a mental/spiritual/emotional shift and seeing the bigger scheme at play?

Or are you just letting yourself become overwhelmed by the world and its shiny displays of appetites and desires?

There comes a time when you do pay attention and are painstakingly looking over the details, there is no way that clarity can escape you.

The decisions and actions that follow will have a tremendous effect.

It starts with getting your head out of the sand.
