3 Steps to the Meaning of Life
Saturday, August 1st, 2009
Everyone is searching for the meaning of life, in some way or another. On day you wake up, and
in a panic you think: why am I here? Good question…if you never asked, you would be dying
feeling you missed out on life. Here are the three steps to begin the search for the meaning of life:
1: Working through your past
You will have to do some inner work in order to start with a clean slate. It may not be fun, it is
critical to your growth. You may have been living with stress and grief all of your life, and it is time to be free.
This work can be done alone, but many see faster benefits with
a therapist. It may take a few tries to find the right person for you.
Step 2: Who are you?
You are under there somewhere, though you may be hard to find. It will require your attention to really discover
who you really are. What do you enjoy or dispise, and why do you feel this way? Having a strange
to something, try to understand why. Consider what you liked as a child. Can you think of things that
excited you? It is impossible to really live in this world if you are feeling lost
until you are truly found.
Step 3: Where are you and where do you want to be?
This is where you take action, matching your desires with your reality. This requires some hard work. You may
have been doing some things for others, and they may really resist your changes. It is important for you to be
the real you, and that means doing what you really want to do. And having what you really want to have.
And be what you want. Make your reality match your desires. You must do these
changes now, even though it is uncomfortable, because there will never be a right time.
Only you can answer for yourself the question of the meaning of your life. It remains unquestioned, though, that life must
to be lived fully. It is not enough to just moved through the world in a trance. You cannot simply exist. You must be plugged into life so you
to feel you have truly lived life to its fullest.
