I'm at that point where I feel as though I don't know what I want anymore. A year ago, I had a sense of certainty..what I wanted to study in college (I'm 19), do as a career and now, a year later, I don't want those things anymore. I also think that I have so many interests that I can't tie myself to 1 and figure out which one I'm truly dedicated to...or matter of fact, figuring out what I'm truly dedicated. What makes things even more hectic is that I am supposed to declare my major by December.


I know it's going to take time and I won't get answers right away, but I just want to figure out what is my purpose in life, what is it that I was meant to do, why am I here? Any advice, literature (preferably online), guidance..ANYTHING.

Trying to find myself...

Jw

I think we've all been through phases of not knowing. In my case, it was the anxiety of not being able to make decisions, similar to the one you mentioned about your majors, which prevented me from accessing my own intuition.

Firstly, I think this lack of certainty is a good thing. The certainty which you had previously made you feel assured and content about the future. However, what was it that you had based your assumptions on? Perhaps some of these were not right for you. Imagine this as a period where you have the opportunity to be reflective and evaluate what is it that you really want, And why you want it. Begin this process with a prayer or asking your higher self to guide you towards the best outcomes. Then relax, and be confident of being led to the right answers. These may appear as a feeling or attraction towards a certain choice, or someone mentioning something that makes your heart jump.

Wonder at this time - see where it will take you - notice how your understanding of others and yourself deepens as a result.

Edit: Just noticed the time on this post - 01:11. Which means that I could be talking sense .

Yes, definitely! I have been taking a lot of time to myself lately. I have an idea of my purpose and where I want to go in life..I still need to get to specifics, but I believe I'm on the right track
