"Dream, Dream, Dream! Conduct these dreams into thoughts, and then transform them into action."

Losing direction in life entails losing focus on what's important, losing control over addictions and diversions, losing hope for the future, and, finally, losing the will to succeed.- that's what I am here to address in this article.
Being Certain About Your Priorities:
"Priorities" determine your life's outcomes. Your current situation is a result of your prioritization in the past. You would be studious now if studying had always been your top priority. And if you succeed in the future, it will be because you put your dream first today and put everything else second. The first step to getting back on track is realizing what your priorities are.
Understand Your Motivation and Put It in Writing:
When you understand what you are lacking, you can see it clearly wherein you are driven to live and succeed without the help of others. You get this from intrinsic motivation since you KNOW that you have to accomplish what you're doing.
Be A Planner Because They Never Lose Track Of Time:
While you should always aim higher, don't let your journey cause you to forget who you are, therefore think and strategize to get into your zone of endurance building . Dream on, but also stay in the here and now and consider what kind of effort and commitment you need to make in order to realize your future ambitions. The other great reason to plan things is the harder you work the more you realize what you used to think was hard work, is not even close to what you’re capable of !
Life is Definite with Limitless possibilities:
Though my perspective has shifted while writing this particular piece and I now understand that life happens for me and not to me, I still don't know what the future holds for me. Everything that occurs in life has a purpose, and everything that occurs in life is fleeting. Even though I don't always handle obstacles well, my outlook on how I handle them has evolved. I now have a strong sense of purpose, which is a great motivator. Always remember this - You are the master of your own Mind!
