Do you secretly (or not so secretively) long to change your life?
Sometimes in life, we get the urge to shake things up a bit, break the mold, and totally recreate our lives. That’s because we want to better match up to our current state of consciousness. If we stay in one place too long, whether physically or mentally, boredom and complacency can easily set in. That restless feeling makes us yearn for something new to make life exciting again.
Do these feelings resonate with you? Read on to reassure yourself that you are indeed ready to make big changes in your life.
5 Signs You’re Ready to Change Your Life
1. You feel restless and discontent most of the time.
One of the biggest signs that something needs to change in your life is feeling uninterested, uninspired, and unmotivated during your day. If how you spend the majority of your time doesn’t resonate with your soul anymore, you need to look deep within and figure out what should remain in your life, and what has worn out its welcome. Boredom can even be dangerous, as studies prove that disengaged, easily uninterested people are at a higher risk for depression, anxiety, and even addiction to drugs and other harmful behaviors.
Don’t fall into a trap of complacency and feel like you can’t make a change in your life. You are a powerful, perfectly capable being, and life is truly your oyster. Live your life according to the grand design in your head, not by other’s blueprints.
2. You have passions in life that are being left unfulfilled.
When you clock in to work every day, do you truly feel inspired and ready to tackle another day? Or do you feel an overwhelming feeling of dread wash over your whole body, making you feel hopeless? If you have a fire in your heart to accomplish something, never try to put out that flame. The longer you silence the voice within, the more persistent it will become.
Far too many people spend their lives doing things they don’t truly enjoy, so if you have dreams still living inside your soul, allow them to come to life. The moment you choose to live according to your unique passions is the moment you reawaken your inner child, so don’t hesitate to experiment with life and turn your visions into reality.
3. You have fallen into bad habits.
When people become disinterested in their environment and daily lives, they often use things like drugs, alcohol, food, sex, gambling, and other addictions to simply cope with their boredom. Addictions are often thought of as a direct result of our hectic modern ways of living, but you can overcome bad habits by revamping your life, if even in small ways.
Self-destructive behavior is unfortunately all too common in today’s world, but it can be beaten by living from a more loving, conscious place in your heart. If you talk to pretty much any successful person today, they will tell you that they had to totally reconstruct their life and mindset in order to get to where they are today. Use that as motivation in order to transform your own life; after all, only you hold the key to your destiny, so you must knock down those barriers within you that hold you back.
4. When you look around at the world, you see clearly through the deception of this superficial reality.
As you step out into the world, you almost laugh at the distractions and lies that surround you. Magazines, advertisements, TV shows, and businesses all want your attention, but you no longer allow them to rule you. Because of the chaos and corruption going on in our world, this has prompted you to seek answers within yourself, and not be tempted by organizations and ads telling you who to be and what to buy.
As you become more and more distant from this “machine” we feed each and every second, this is a sign that you long for a deeper connection and true meaning in life. Before awakening begins, one must unplug from the matrix, so to speak, and realize that the soul is the only ever-lasting thing on this Earth. If you no longer have interests in keeping up with the seemingly backward world we live in, you are definitely ready to start down the road toward enlightenment and big life changes.
5. You feel like you’re outgrowing old relationships, and even yourself.
Everyone we meet plays a role in our lives, even if they don’t stick around for very long. However, sometimes even long-term friendships and romantic relationships can start to crumble once both people begin to walk in different directions in life. It’s perfectly fine to end relationships with those who no longer resonate with you. That’s because ultimately, you have to do what’s best for your own personal growth.
This can also apply to the relationship you have with yourself. Maybe you wish you could just run away from yourself and start over as someone new. Indeed, we have all felt this way from time to time. But, you don’t have to embody someone else to start anew; you can recreate yourself at any time you choose, and the best time to do that is always now!
So, are you ready? If so, repeat the affirmation in the comments:
“I am ready for the positive change and abundance flowing into my life!”
