Finding that right direction.

Have you ever thought you weren't sure if you were heading in the right direction in life? We all have our doubts and uncertainties in life at some time or another, but when do you really know if anything is right or wrong anyway? Why does this drive so many of us crazy in our everyday lives? Why should it, you have no control over it? Right? There will always be those certain people that have always known what they want to be when they are very young and excel very much at what they do. For those of us who are not so fortunate finding that niche or passion can be a very hard thing. I think these pressures and expectations from all sorts of different angles are one of the main contributions to the problem, since they don't forgive or judge on who or how smart you are, they are most definitely present. As someone who is always open for new things, new ideas and new people I think it is imperative to always keep a positive mindset and outlook. Because I believe one doesn't become angry, stressed, sad, or any sort of negative emotion, I believe they choose to enter that state of being unconsciously. Sure some things are depressing or will make you mad/sad or angry, but I think people become attached to that emotion for a different reason they are not able to recognize or address. I know its not a perfect world but if you were to choose between sad or happy, wouldn't a sane person choose happiness? Angry or nice? Stressed or Relaxed? Next time you feel irritated or angry at someone or something, simple observe what that emotion does to your psyche. Do not judge what you see, simply observe. I think you may be surprised what you find.
