There’s actually a simple way to feeling fulfilled in life. The secret is:
Being useful to others.
It’s a guaranteed fact that will provide your life meaning which we all crave.
The challenge is it’s not always clear how we can be useful because of our viewpoint of the surroundings. Sometimes our context is such that it feels the people around us and the things around us don’t need what we have to offer in terms of time effort or money.
There’s actually a solution to that:
Change your context.
The fact is that we all have something to offer to the world. If you can’t see who you can help or what you can offer that would be truly helpful then change your context.
Don’t think people in your inner circle need your help, look outside that inner circle.
Don’t think you can make a difference at your job, change your job.
Don’t think your family needs your help because they’re pretty self-sufficient, don’t change your family of course 😊 but help other families who can use your help.
Don’t think you can make a difference in your current geographical location, change your location.
Can’t change your location? No worries. It’s a small world these days thanks to technology. Reach out and help others through your words and actions virtually.
The fact of the matter is there’s Always someone or something that can use what you have to offer. And just as true is that once you offer that help, you yourself will feel fulfilled. Guaranteed!
So ask yourself:
What’s in your hands and what are you going to do about it?
