Something’s not right

Re: Lacking direction, unsure of what I need to do and generally just fed up.......

I'm not religious @Jacques but one bible passage I like is Mathew 6:34

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own

I agree with this statement.

Yeah my friend was telling me the benefits of yoga.
He is Indian has been doing it since he was a kid.
I am going to try it maybe soon when I get back to the gym

Re: Lacking direction, unsure of what I need to do and generally just fed up.......

Is it possible that bad experiences - or at least ones that I find uncomfortable - can keep on renumirating?

I keep thinking about the 3 days of work this week. Bad stuff. Awkward moments. Etc.

I hate how it replays in my mind. Undermines my confidence.

It's silly I know but it's affecting me..

hi @MDT i was once given this by my dad, it held a lot of meaning for me, i hope it does for you too, sorry for the length.

 

Desiderata

GO PLACIDLY amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.

 

Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.

 

Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.

 

Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

 

Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.

 

Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass.

 

Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.

 

Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

 

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.

 

And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

Hey @Jacques that's such a great commentary. I'm gonna save it on my phone.

Re: Lacking direction, unsure of what I need to do and generally just fed up.......

It reminds me of this

A salutation to the dawn.

Look to this day!
For it is life, the very life of life.
In its brief course
Lie all the verities and realities of your existence:
The bliss of growth;
The glory of action;
The splendor of achievement;
For yesterday is but a dream,
And tomorrow is only a vision;
But today, well lived, makes every yesterday
a dream of happiness,
And every tomorrow a vision of hope.
