Beyond the Ordinary: Finding Your Purpose


In life, there are plenty of things we shouldn’t even bother with, but there are also things we must care about. A life without goals is like wandering aimlessly, without direction. So let’s dive into three key aspects you should focus on but often overlook.


1. Your Identity

I’m not referring to your social identity or how others perceive you. 

Who are you, really? 

What defines you as a person? 

You don’t need to share this identity with anyone if you’re uncomfortable, but it’s essential that you know who you are on the inside. 

What do you stand for? 

Do your personal beliefs and ideals align with the person you’ve become?

It’s important to stand by your core values, no matter where you are or what you’re doing. Being authentic to yourself will set you apart from the masses. Take time to reflect: Are you happy with where you stand in life? 

Is this the version of yourself you envisioned?


2. Your Goals

Once you’ve figured out who you are, the next thing to focus on is where you want to be? 

What keeps you awake at night, itching to get started but somehow never taking that first step? Your goals are what will give your life purpose.

Find the passion that drives you to the point where you can’t rest until you’ve made progress. 

Whether it’s personal growth, professional success, or something else, create a plan to chase those dreams. Setting goals, and following through, is what makes life meaningful.


3. Focus

Great accomplishments aren’t achieved with wavering faith. 

Focus, hard work, and determination are what build monumental feats, whether it’s the pyramids or your personal goals. It’s easy to get distracted or lose motivation, but consistent effort over time is the secret to success.

Pursue your goals with relentless energy every day. 

Take breaks to enjoy life, but keep pushing forward. 

The real satisfaction comes when you look back at what you’ve achieved after years of consistent focus.

The possibilities are limitless if you’re willing to invest in your dreams daily.


Final Thoughts: It’s All About Perseverance

I know what you’re thinking—reading these lines makes your blood boil with energy and excitement.

But inspiration alone won’t take you to the finish line. Perseverance will. 

These words are meant to shake your soul and ignite your inner drive, but it’s your determination and hard work that will bring your goals to life.

In the end, finding a balance between chasing your goals and living life to the fullest is what will make everything possible. So, ask yourself: What are you truly chasing in life?

A Web of Lies

Chapter 1 Blood covered his hands. He ran, seeing flashes of everything, sprinting as if his life depended on it. Exhaustion overwhelmed him, but he pushed forward, constantly looking over his shoulder. Suddenly, the city plunged into darkness, and he tripped, crashing to the ground. Losing consciousness, he could hear thunder crack in the distance.   A loud police siren jolted him awake. The bright sun spilled through his bedroom window, and he threw the sheets off his body. His mother’s voice echoed from downstairs.   "Every single day! You’re going to be late again!" she yelled.   Yawning, he stretched and smiled, catching the aroma of sizzling butter.   "Coming!" he called back, getting ready for college.   "You worry too much," his father’s voice chimed in. "He’s going to be just fine. He was up all night working on an assignment, right?" His father winked.   Sahil smiled, stuffing the last toast in his ...

Depression is a word that carries weight, yet many avoid discussing it because they don’t perceive it as a serious problem. The reality is that depression doesn’t always come with clear signs, making it difficult to recognize. It can stem from various sources, often without us even realizing. Let’s dive into 3 key reasons why you may be feeling depressed and how to address them. 1. False Expectations and Unrealistic Idols From the moment we begin our journey in life, we are conditioned to strive for excellence. Society tends to view anything less than the best as a failure, which creates unrealistic expectations .  We grow up believing that we must excel at everything, and when we don’t, it leads to feelings of inadequacy. This constant chase for perfection wears us down, leaving us demoralized when we fall short. Over time, these false expectations can destroy our self-esteem, pushing us into a cycle of self-doubt and depression.  It’s important to redefine succe...

The Toxic Influence of Pseudo-Feminism: A Critical Analysis

Image
Feminism is a term that aims to define the social, economic, and political equality of the sexes .  While the movement has achieved significant recognition for women and their issues, the interpretation of feminism has become more divided over time. The word itself is often misunderstood, and there are misconceptions that are slowly eroding the original goals of the movement.  Here are three things that are damaging the concept of equality that feminism once stood for. 1. Equality Isn't Always the Goal Anymore Feminism originally fought for gender equality —the idea that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities.  However, in today’s society, many modern feminists seem to push for special treatment based on gender rather than true equality.  This contradicts the original aim of feminism, which was about dismantling gender-based privileges, not creating new ones. The Seneca Falls Convention of 1848 marked the beginning of the feminist mov...
