What is the meaning of life?

Below are our tips to help you figure out exactly why you are here, where your passions are hiding and what is going to be the spark to set your world alight with meaning.

1. Stop Playing By The Rules

Some people find that the meaning of life is to have a career, get married, and raise a family. However, that doesn’t mean that everyone is meant to do that in their lives!

When you are living a life that is dictated by others it becomes hard to find the purpose of your own life.

If that sounds like you, then it’s time to dump the rules and start living the life you want. Why would you want to live your life for someone else? You will only regret it in the end.

2. Step Out of Your Comfort Zone

The term comfort zone is code for a place you live in yourself without fear. Fear of the unknown, fear of failing, or fear of not being in control.

Strong, happy people with meaningful lives are adventurers. The meaning in your life is obviously not inside your comfort zone or you would already be living the life you were meant to live.

3. Find Your Joy

What makes you happy in life? Do you enjoy travelling, helping others, being with family, or all of the above?

This step again relies on a solid grounding in making adventurous activities, that you may just find bring you an incredible amount of freedom and happiness. When you know what truly makes you happy and joyful in life, then you will find a sense of purpose to your life.

There is nothing more fulfilling than living your purpose every single day.

4. Listen To Your Intuition

Your intuition is connected to your inner-self. Every time you have a choice to make, your intuition is there to guide you.

It tells you that you are making a bad choice with negative gut feelings and instincts. It also lets you know when you are making a good choice by giving you a sense of happiness and ease. When you learn to listen to your intuition, and follow those moments that feel right, then you will be on your way to living a life with meaning.

5. Appreciate The Individual Moments

Don’t let the fast-paced superficial world take over your life. The world is fast paced and it keeps people in their comfort zones. It stops people from thinking and keeps them busy. Being busy searching is wonderful, but don’t get so busy doing that you don’t allow yourself to feel.

Feelings are real, they are not fast and they are not shallow. Allowing yourself to feel and truly appreciate a moment in your life is more of a challenge than actually experiencing it.
