Oh, What to Do. What to Do.

I know you’re probably thinking this question right now if you’re in college or even if you’re older. You’re probably like “Oh man, I lived this many years of my life and I still don’t know what I want to do with it yet”.

The keyword in that sentence is yet. Quite frankly, I’ve never found a way to avoid this topic either. It still haunts me today and even though I myself don’t know what I want to do for the rest of my life yet, I know it’ll come to me eventually.

But you’re probably still scared of this idea of the unknown and how to escape this feeling so I’ve put together a little three step formula that I always go back to whenever I question my purpose.

1. Live Like You’re Gone Tomorrow

I know this can be a very hard pill to swallow sometimes but let me put some things into perspective.

If you had one choice to either live or die tomorrow, I hope everyone would say live. But what does it mean to live?

As humans we often don’t think about this concept of living and what it truly means to us.
