A LIFE…
. . . that fires you
up and fuels you to your full potential
. . . like your going
through the motions?
. . . with conviction
and against any odds
. . . created from
your own standards and rules
. . . of excitement,
empowerment and ease
How vast is your journey ahead?
With me now, I’d like to step a thousand ahead of my time… But let us first
talk about the crisis we or others might have been going through before disclosing
any of our potentials.
When life starts to get
complicated, how do we deal about it? How do we face and accept the challenge?
The truth is, men and women's journey during the midlife ages passed
through, in different ways with different challenges and different needs. Unlike
single individual, married people tend to have imminent impact with each other.
The pressure is otherwise inevitable. As a matter of fact, the historical aspect at
which we formally enter “middle age” is of little importance. What’s much more
intriguing are the psychological changes thought to accompany with it. Most
people believed that it's a genuine psychiatric phenomenon usually takes place between
ages 40-60 but there are instances not later than 32 arise.
This life situation does not
happen in just a blink. It always takes place randomly in the context of our
relationship. On the immense social level there are developmental points for
life's experiences, our own expectation of happiness, ambition or even greed
for success. But no matter where or when you started your journey, most of us
end up in an unknown territory. Our fate seems to have been controlled or is
somewhat coloured by the reactions of our partners and peers in life. Whether
you plan it together, silently comply, support each other, your partner's
midlife crisis becomes yours.
We often feel stuck in a dark
unknown place without options. I have observed, however, as we slowly
assimilate the casualty and re-define ourselves and our future in matters we
could never have imagined. There are times in life that we might need a life coach, because no matter how much sane we are there will always be times in
life when we are not capable of thinking correctly and decide the right things
for ourselves.
How do we resolve this crucial
battle? Most data reveal that this group of adults reformulate their goals in
the wake of such life analysis, approaching more towards maintenance of
essential goals, holding things on their right status that would safeguard
their future rather than setting their sights for new unsettled dreams and
aspirations. It is rather up to us to adapt or create new approach or new
philosophy for the world. We can give it all and developed a slouch at the same
time. It offers an emotionally defensive feeling against anxieties and distress
tied to unrealizable ambitions.
The response of the people around
us, as well as the use of outside resources can be of great help and reduce the
chances of getting lost or of traveling alone. As I'm always saying, "no
one has the power in his hand that could make his life perfect. Life is just a
matter of age and time." So "live your yes!" You and I! Live a
life that fires you up and fuels you to your full potential!
