Is it normal that i frequently do absolutely nothing because i think...........

I might be inspired in some way, or that I might solve some universal puzzle and suddenly my mind will be open to whats really important in life?

I lay on the couch or my bed just there hoping that by some miracle some deep rooted passion might be revealed to me or that I might figure out what it is "i was born to do" (like some people claim) If you believe in that stuff.

What I'm trying to say Is that I don't know what really matters in life.. and that I'm confused as to what I'm suppose to do. SOme people tell me I can do whatever I like/ enjoy to do but that just seems too simple to me. There has to be something more.. or does there.

I'm going to lay down now i have no idea what i should really do..

    I think you're not so lost... you want to find that centre/sence in your life, but laying down doing nothing but using your regular thinking wont help you... You should try getting rid of your traditional thinking to connect with your intuition, this might help you find your way...

    For reaching it you could try a lot of things like meditation or playing an instrument (hopefully one that is very dogmatical)

    I know what you mean. I dont really do anything but play paradise island and temple run on my phone, (my island is fantastic btw) and think about life and the frequency theory. My girlfriend gets quite frustrated about my "over-thinking" but in all honesty, i believe most people just under-think.
    I do need to get a job and actually support the family I'm about to have, but still... Life is crazy to think about.
    Love life by atmosphere is a great song to listen to while spacing about life. even though I find life very difficult for me to love.. it.still helps.

    If you're doing nothing, how will you find out what you're passionate about? People don't figure out what their passions are by sitting around until they suddenly know what they want to do. They do it by trying lots of different things until they find some that they love.

    Why does it seem too simple to do what you enjoy doing?

    I kind of feel like I have something I was born to do, but to be honest that doesn't make it any simpler. I constantly question the validity of my own thoughts telling me what I am meant have a career in. I have to choose between a realistic job and idealistic goals. Sometimes I think it might be easier to just work in retail or some other store that sells things I like. I could just work my way up from there and have some promise of financial security. I think choosing your career is probably one of the hardest decisions to make.... it is for me anyway.

  • Realistically, the only thing we, as humans, are "born to do" is survive and procreate.

    It seems basic but it gets complicated because of the complexity in way we humans live now. For most people to survive, they must have a job and it's usually a job that no one really wants to do but someone has to. Some get lucky and find careers that they are passionate about, but for the rest of us, we try to find pleasure in the hours we are not slaving away at our jobs.

    Many people find satisfaction from the drive to procreate. Falling in love, bonding, forming close attachments, and sharing offspring are all things that keep us from dying out. Our bodies are programmed for it, it is part of our purpose.

    But yes, it's normal to do nothing because you are confused as to what exactly it is that you should be doing. Take it easy though, the answers won't come to you if you fret over them too much.

      That, in itself, is a passion of life.
