figure out what I truly want in life

One day, I took an index card and wrote down what I’d like to do with 60 years… This is what I wrote…

Novelty – new experiences & new food. Fun – thrill seeking of all sorts (I want to be scared, feel my tummy churn, etc.) Contribute – to our earth and little society in many ways Respect – people and the environment (we can overcome all obstales. change is inevitable (e.g. extinctions) but I can stilll do my part and mantain my integrity, widen – my world view and adopt different perspectives through which to see the world (like how my european history class changed my world view as well as perception of history)

On the back…

Explore – territories (e.g. national parks, mountains, cities/towns)

Travel

Adventure

Variety

Good Friends

Intimacy

Apprecation
(& records of it all)

Risks

Being Assertive

Simplicity (home) Clarity (mind) Health (body)

Explore more (spiritual things, oneness with everything)

I have a good life till now. I have had my share of joy, happiness, friends…. now a loving husband whom i love too much and who loves me too a lot, a great steady high paying job at a young age, travel to places (although i would like to do it more), a loving family etc etc but still i do not feel completely HAPPY.
There are moments and bursts of happiness, thrill and enjoyment but i feel something is missing in life which is keeping me away from 100% satisfaction and peace. I am mostly restless and even if i get the job done, mentally i never relax. My mind actively keep thinking of all the things in the world and i do not know what exactly its trying to find which will give me a sense of completness.

Hey , if any of you feels the same . please share your views and in case anyone has some tips to help me.

Cheers

..what I truly want in this life and beyond. There is a peace I never knew existed. Alhamdulillah.

I want to not worry about money. I don’t need a lot, just enough. I believe this requires me to live within my means or starters, not be too impulsive in my spending. Also, to save money for rainy days and later years. Better still, I want to earn money without worrying where it’s going to come from. I have difficulty being specific about this but I know the way things are going now, my money situation is less than ideal.

..to be relevant, regardless of what age I am or shall be. I want to continually have a purpose in life. But I don’t want to try too hard or slog my way through it. Then again, would that be boring, when things become easy and effortless. Or am I addicted to drama and making things harder than what they should be?

Lately, I’ve been toying with the idea of becoming an executive coach. I know I have the right aptitude for it. But I’m not sure if it pays well or if the local market is prepared for it. Maybe I should talk to a few people and find out more.

..that this is the top most goal on my list and I haven’t written a darn thing on this yet. That’s because it’s not easy. I’m so good at achieving what others think I should want, be and need but when I have to ask myself and expect a truthful answer, I can’t get an immediate thought on this.

Must do some active thinking on this soon.
