Sometimes life gets very comfortable, and you wake up each day and know what is in store for you. You follow your daily routine with the same movements and even thoughts. Perhaps you brush your teeth, feed your cats, start the coffee and check your email.
You wake up one day and life has changed. This could be for many reasons:
1. losing your job
2. moving to a new city
3. divorce
4. children leaving the nest
5. financial change in your life
You ask yourself, "what am I going to do with my life now?" First of all look at whatever happens in your life as opportunity to grow, learn, change and be inspired.
Take out a pen and paper and start writing. First start writing about all the things you would like to do, and include everything you can possibly think of. Take another sheet of paper and write all the obstacles you have which are preventing your having the perfect life.
Take out a third sheet of paper and write all the things you can do that are feasible to make your life be just as you want.
You can start writing a book that has been in your head for a long time. Perhaps you want to learn how to style hair. Maybe your dream is to be a web designer. You can easily find courses in your city or online. If you need to bring in dollars get a simple and no brainer job while studying for your new career.
If your kids have moved out why not start having fun? Take some classes, learn to paint, get in great shape. Whatever you wish to do with your time do it! There are so many ways to reinvent your wheel, and think how much fun you will have turning it.
