Have you ever been driving and been so caught up in your own thoughts or a conversation that you miss your turn? This has happened to me more than once. Sometimes I realize it right away, and other times I don’t notice it for a while. Then there is this thought, “where am I?”
This happens in life, too. I find myself moving down a certain path with no focus or direction. I am simply staying on the path. Get up, get dressed, grab a quick breakfast, go to work, come home, eat a late dinner, watch tv, go to bed, repeat. Then one day I think, “where am I?”
I find that it is easy to become mechanical in life. It is easy to go through the motions and follow the routine, as if sleepwalking through life. Let’s face it. By our nature as humans, we can become very content with routine. It is comforting. It is familiar. It is how we operate. Well, that is downright boring for me! Where is the passion? Where is the excitement? Where is the adventure? Where is the joy?
Today I ask you to think about the path that you are on. Is that path leading to where you want to go? If so, then stay on the path. If not, then it is time to change direction. It is time to get out of the dream state, and start moving with purpose.
Affirmation: I am fully awake and alert. I am aware of where I want to go, and I am on the path. When it is time to change direction, I will be paying attention, and I will not miss the turn.
