Do you ever have that feeling of uncertainty? You know, that feeling of not knowing if you are where you should be in your life? Or do you ever find yourself thinking that you are not where you should be with your life? Well, you’re not the only one. I know these feelings and I hate these feelings.
The funny thing is, we all have had these feelings at some point in our lives. Truthfully, it’s easy to look around and think to yourself that you are not where you should be in your life. It’s easy to get bombarded with feeling the pressures of life, of growing, and of becoming who you want to be.
But I believe all of us are exactly where we should be at every moment of our lives. Some moments are preparing us for what’s to come; other moments are teaching us something that we need to learn so that we can be prepared for where it is that we aspire to eventually be. So skip the pressure of feeling like you’re behind or that you need to have your entire life figured out because you’re not and you don’t.
Here are seven signs that I believe prove you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be for this moment of your life:
1. At times, you’re able to take a step back, get a new perspective, and feel a sense of serenity.
2. You’re learning important things you didn’t know that you now know you needed to know.
3. There are things (even small ones) that you’ve aspired to do, you’re now having the opportunity to do.
4. You’re meeting people who are helping you to learn more about yourself.
5. At times, you feel like your patience, perspective, work ethic, or character are constantly being developed.
6. You are gaining an inner peace that allows you to handle anything, when everything seems to be chaotic.
7. And finally, you’re encountering situations that you feel are pushing you to grow and preparing you for the next journey of your life.
