Finding your place in life

Maybe this comes easy to some people but it’s generally a hard thing.
Discovering purpose, finding your place, knowing what you’re really great at, what you should do and what you shouldn’t….call it whatever

The first mistake you’ll make is seeing it as an end, because it’s not.
Breathe, and let that take some of the pressure off.

It’s a journey and perhaps in the confusion, all we need to do is what we can do, and when possible, seek guidance and mentorship.
…from people that have done it and people that are on their way.

The stories of others tell us how we might write ours.
They help us see why
They tell us what’s possible and how we might…

They are not the ultimate guide.
And I'm not saying mentorship is the key to finding your place.
I’m saying, it’s a journey and some guidance can be helpful.

You’d still make mistakes and that’s okay. It’s all a part of the journey

Again, breathe.
