Hi Everyone!
Anyone else suffer from a lack of drive or ambition?
I have a job which I can do in my sleep. I neither love nor hate it. It pays the bills. I have a roof over my head. My financial situation is comfortable. If there's something I want or somewhere I want to go(within reason) then I can afford it.
I just can't help feeling that I'm wasting my time somehow.
I'm always hearing or reading about so many people doing amazing things with their lives. Writers, Artists, Scientists, Politicians doing incredible work. Some for themselves and some for their communities. Charities doing great work in the most difficult of conditions. People changing the World on a daily basis.
And then I think about what I'm doing with my life and it feels like such a waste.
I can think of numerous things that I would like to do to improve myself as a person. But when it comes down to it, my motivation leaves me and I end up doing what I always do, Day In/Day Out. I wake up, go to work, come home, and watch TV/go on Internet/Listen to Music etc., and then sleep. Admittedly these are all activities I enjoy but I do wonder if there's more important things I could be doing.
I personally think I've had this attitude since School. I never pushed myself, never went the extra mile. I just did the bare minimum to get by. Not being a social person holds be back a little as well, I think.
Anyone else feel this way? Anyone else feel like they're just cruising while life passes them by?
I hope this doesn't come across as me whining. I hate it when people use Social Media just to complain and get people to feel sorry for them.
I'm content with my life. I just feel sometimes that it's lacking something. A goal, a purpose if you like.
Anyone out there want to share their goals/ambitions and what's stopping you from achieving your goals? I'd love to hear them.
Thanks for reading
David
