Quarter Life Crisis

Have you ever gotten a point in your life where you just felt lost?  You know you need to make changes, but you don't even know where to begin or what changes need to be made?  Your life is blah, but you don't know how to fix it?  You forgot how to take care of yourself emotionally and you're not sure how to get back on track.  Well, that's where I'm at at this time in my life.  Changes must be made and the sooner the better.

Part of me is excited about making the necessary changes, but a bigger part of me is scared.  I may have to face some fears and other ugly scary things.  I'm probably going to have to be vulnerable and it's one of those feelings I'm not that fond of.  Every aspect of my life (work, relationships, self, etc) needs to be shaken up.

Some time last year I read about Christine Hassler who is a life coach for the 20-somethings.  I read a post called What Do I Want To Do With My Life.  My first thought was of relief.  Sweet, there are other people in the world who feel like I do.  I'm not the only one.  My second thought was that I need to take this course one day.  Sadly I have not yet taken this course, but hopefully I will in the next month or two.

In happier news, Christine wrote a book called 20 Something 20 Everything: A Quarter-life Woman's Guide to Balance and Direction which I just purchased.  I am ecstatic to get started on it.  In fact, most of my weekend will be spent working on this and ultimately working on myself.  I believe that if you take care of yourself first, you will be better able to take care of others later. 


Until Next Time,
