What Am I Here For? Finding Direction When Life Feels Aimless
There are days when life feels like one long loop. Wake up, drink coffee, scroll, work, sleep, repeat. And somewhere in between you catch yourself asking, “Is this it? Is this really what I’m here for?”
You’re not alone in that question. It sneaks up on people in quiet moments… while folding laundry, sitting in traffic, or staring at the ceiling at 2 a.m. Purpose isn’t always obvious, and when it feels out of reach, life can start to feel aimless, like you’re walking without a map.
But here’s the thing: asking the question is actually a good sign. It means something inside you knows there’s more. More joy, more meaning, more aliveness waiting to be uncovered. The challenge isn’t that you’re lost; it’s that you’re ready for a new direction.
This post is for those restless souls (maybe you) who want to stop drifting and start discovering what they’re really here for.
Why We Struggle With Purpose
It’s easy to think everyone else has it figured out. Social media makes it look like your friend just “found her passion” overnight, or that guy from high school… Continue Reading
Do You Struggle With Perfectionism? How to Start Breaking the Habit
Trying to be the best we can be is often a double-edged sword.
On one hand, striving for excellence can push us to grow, achieve, and produce work we’re proud of. On the other hand, when the drive for “perfect” takes over, it can lead to procrastination, burnout, and a constant sense that nothing is ever good enough.
For high-achievers, creatives, students, and professionals, perfectionism can quietly sabotage both success and well-being. And perhaps “Done is better than perfect,” as Sheryl Sandberg says, is something to embrace from time to time.
But how do you know you’re a perfectionist? And how do you know if it’s even a problem? Well, let’s get into it.
What is Perfectionism?
Perfectionism is the persistent belief that anything less than flawless is failure. It often shows… Continue Reading
One Positive Action
Living Your Values
You're probably living by your values more than you realize. It doesn't always look like some big dramatic moment. Most of the time, it's the small stuff you do without thinking about it. Maybe you kept your word when it would have been easier not to, or you helped someone who didn't even ask, or you stuck with something tough because giving up just didn't feel right.
These everyday moments actually show that your values are working in the background, guiding your choices even when you're not paying attention. When you take time to notice these things, you start to see that you're already living with more intention than you might think. It's easy to focus on all the ways we mess up, but there's real value in recognizing the ways we're getting it right.
This awareness builds confidence. When you see how your actions already match up with what matters to you, you start trusting yourself more. You realize that living according to your values isn't some impossible goal, it's something you're already doing. That makes it feel more natural to keep doing it.
Take a few minutes today to think back over the past week. Write down one moment when you acted in a way that reflected something important to you. Maybe you were patient when someone was getting on your nerves, or you made time for something you care about even though you were busy. Keep that example as a reminder that your values aren't just nice ideas, they're already showing up in how you live.
