What's the point?

[musclemuscle]

Some days I sit and wonder what my purpose is. There has always been in me an itching to do something great, but what. What great thing is there for me to do? I have no clue. Right now I sit typing on this computer without any idea of the purpose of my existence. Some people would say your purpose is to serve God and love people. While there is much fullfillment in that there is still something that is missing.

Where is this life of mine heading? What are my goals? Where do I want to be in ten years and what steps do i make to get there? None of these questions in my life have an answer. In the next seven days I will turn twenty six. For The past five years I have been trying to figure out where in the world I am going?

Last year I paid for two evening college classes. After three weeks I dropped out. School never has been interesting for me. Sitting and reading some book about the history of America or Proper grahmmer just bores me out of my mind.

Maybe it is ADD. Who knows. But I have always been energetic and have found a physical and emotional release in the gym. Maybe some day a venture to my own gym will be made. I dont know.

Sometimes I ask God what i am doing or why i am here. He never answers that question.

I wish I could figure out my purpose.
Life is great...I enjoy living, just want to find my place in this world.

Maybe it is ADD.

Only a mental health professional can accurately diagnose you.

Right now you are lost and haven't found what suits you in life.

I hope you find it, I really do.

Here's my advice.

Move to a different town/city.

Like hundreds of Kms away. Time to start a new path.

Either that or travel to a 3rd world country and get a perspective on life. Go visit some shit-hole shanty town. Easier still, drive through a native reservation in N. America and you'll feel better about your own life.

"But I have always been energetic and have found a physical and emotional release in the gym"

Is that the only activity that makes you happy? You should try some new things, you may something else, too.

You should open up your own gym

I would start by listening to "That Smell" by Skynyrd. Dubya did this in the 70s and look where he is today.

You should open up your own gym [/QUOTE]

That thought is something I do get excited about. I have lots of ideas for publicity and for set up of gym. Maybe thats what I will do.
Grab a notebook and put all of ideas in notebook. In Next five years open own gym. Working out has always been something I love. Would be a risk. Would have to put all assets on the line. But if successfull would be awesome!

me too man.

 

[theoak01]

my advice is to stop shooting for that one big thing to make you great and focus on the little things along the way

 

[The Angry Mule]

I just turned 26 and find my self thinking similar thoughts.

 

[HardHat87]

I started thinking those thoughts when I turned 25, now Im 26. Nothing makes me happy. I am pissed of all the time, I am a real asshole. I hate my job, I hate where I live, I hate all these ignorant white trash crackers I have to live around. Therefore I have much aggresion to let out at the gym. I have tried to think of what I could do to make myself happy, yet I cant come up with anything.

 

[Ulcasterdropout]

I'm 26. I have no direction. I'm just moseying though life now, till I'm dead.

 

[Ulcasterdropout]

me too man.

Wow, philosophers have been doing the same for centuries. At least do something unique.

You're normal. You will never be great. Quit watching TV. You're just like the billions of other not-great people.

Where is this life of mine heading? What are my goals? Where do I want to be in ten years and what steps do i make to get there? None of these questions in my life have an answer. In the next seven days I will turn twenty six. For The past five years I have been trying to figure out where in the world I am going?

If you can't answer what your own goals are, ... well, I guess you got a problem, don't you?

If you're looking for the perfect answer, you may never find it. Sometimes you gotta take something just a little less. Five years is a lot of time to be wallowing in contempt and self-pity.

Last year I paid for two evening college classes. After three weeks I dropped out. School never has been interesting for me. Sitting and reading some book about the history of America or Proper grahmmer just bores me out of my mind.

Really... I learned about the nature of the universe. We also touched on the nature of existance, the unidirectionalness of time, future cosmological implications twenty billion billion years from now, the creation of the universe, and how to make up words like unidirectionalness and use them in everyday speach.

History and grammar, eh? Sounds thrilling.

Maybe it is ADD. Who knows. But I have always been energetic and have found a physical and emotional release in the gym. Maybe some day a venture to my own gym will be made. I dont know.

Of course it's not you, it's the ADHD. Nothing's our fault.

Sometimes I ask God what i am doing or why i am here. He never answers that question.

He's probably busy with the four billion other people asking him the same damn question. Take a number and wait in line.

I wish I could figure out my purpose.
Life is great...I enjoy living, just want to find my place in this world.

Then DO IT. The only person holding you back is YOU.

We've had self-defeating friends like you seem to be before. We eventually smacked them into the real world. I've learned to be blunt and honest with people that say or write things similar to what you did here. The problem is you. The answer is "fix it". Hopefully one day you will understand the simplicity of that.

You can join the Latin Kings as an enforcer.......it's mainly a gang of Cubans and Puerto Ricans on the east coast.

The westcoast has the Mexican Mafia.....they'll also take you since you're latin.

If you have no direction and just want to throw yourself in to something wholeheartedly, I'd say do that or join the military.

It's all up to you, bro.......life is wide open......some people go through life never finding the one thing that fullfills them.

Some people find it's money, others power, others women, others killing, others fighting......don't let other people's opinions mold what you do with your life. Do what you do and go balls out.

Do something crazy. Something that scares you. Something that will completely change the way you live your life. Go work in another country. Do something that you can proud to say you did. Something that would impress yourself. Something that you would admire someone else for doing. Experience something new, even if it is scary and unfamiliar. You will learn from it, you will grow, you will be so happy you did it. Experience what life has to offer. Don't just sit back and wait for something to happen.

I left my hometown when I was 24. I was the best thing I ever did for myself.
