Questions to Myself (Obviously a Quarter-Life Crisis)
A lot has happened during my (it sounds like my lung will just come right up) cough-induced hiatus, so I have to ask myself this:
What have I done for myself lately?
No, really. What have I done for myself that hasn’t been a matter of just getting by day-to-day? Why can’t I commit myself to the things I know I need to do? I’m perfectly aware that I need to budget, exercise, eat way better and I want to volunteer, make more friends, spend more time with old ones (i.e., not be such a homebody) so I wonder what’s keeping me from doing it.
I need to put myself out there.
I may not have specific career goals yet, but I have a general idea and I have other goals. I want to live outside the US again, for instance. I’m just not a planner. I don’t know how to start laying the groundwork. But right now, I want to be the planner and I want to lay the groundwork.
How do I start? I’m sure I’ll eventually find my way, but a little push in the right direction wouldn’t hurt.
I feel you and you are in my thoughts. Perhaps trying to do it all or thinking about doing it all is too overwhelming or exhausting? I know it is for me when I think about all the stuff I need to do/am not doing… Maybe this week focus on one thing on the list (either the most important, or one you think you can handle) and then build of the momentum of that? Baby steps? Just a thought, I have no idea if it will help, but know you have a fan routing you on in Jersey.

You just did.
Ask the questions, think of your dreams, say outloud what you want. Be (more and more) specific and it will happen. if you want it, too.
Quarterlife crisis? nah. Quarterly planning meeting.
