In the midst of our chaotic lives, we tend to lose sight of who we are and what truly feels like “us”. Vow today to start focusing on getting back to the person you know you are deep down inside. Whether it’s reading a good book or playing your favorite sport, reconnect with the things that make you feel like the best version of you.
The best version of yourself is the one that is at peace with their surroundings. The you that knows exactly what makes them happy and what is a waste of energy. Take some time today to analyze your current life and schedule. How much time do you spend doing things you enjoy? What kind of activities are really just time wasters that can be eliminated or reduced? Are you even sure of what activities you enjoy anymore? If you have fallen out of touch with what makes you happy, don’t worry. It’s easy to get back to that place.
Start by listing all the things that you remember enjoying as a child or teenager. What kind of hobbies did you have? What are your favorite memories? Next figure out ways to recreate some of those events in your life now. This doesn’t necessarily mean you have to start playing dodge ball with the neighborhood 12 year olds. But you may enjoy joining a gym with a basketball court or getting some friends to start a weekly game. In doing this exercise you will be reminded of the things that feel the most like “you”.
The ultimate definition of happiness is being unabashedly yourself, for better or for worse, and being at peace with it. Spend less time doing things that are unfulfilling and more time pursuing your passions and dreams. Failing to be the truest form of yourself means you are cheating others out of getting to know how remarkable you really are.
