Am I Where I Need To Be?
So I’ve spent a lot of time lately thinking about life and what I want to do with my life. That’s a pretty deep question honestly and it always amazes me how it feels like there is a tremendous amount of pressure to choose one thing for the rest of your life!
It’s ridiculous. That being said I know some of what I want to do and I know, what I don’t want to do too. I know what I enjoy and I know what I hate to do too.
I know I want to be an author, public speaker, and a musician. I also know I want to try voice acting and a few other things along the way as well. I know thanks to my background as a homeschooler I would probably go completely crazy if I had a 9 to 5 desk job.
I don’t know exactly how to get there. But I know if God wants me there he’ll open the doors. I also know that I don’t have to pick just one thing to do for the rest of my life.
Some advice I heard this week that I really liked. If you enjoy something do more of it. Then on the flip side. Do what you enjoy as long as you enjoy it and when it gets old or you don’t enjoy it anymore, move to the next challenge.
That’s why I’m spending this summer working at camp again. Because I enjoy it. I enjoy the people I work with. Plus I enjoy getting to make a small impact on so many student’s lives. I also know I won’t be able to do so forever.
I don’t know exactly how I will get to where I want to be. Maybe I’ll get part way there and decide it’s not for me. But as long as I’m following God’s next step I’ll be right where I need to be.
