Why Am I Feeling Lost In Life?
Can Your Soul Speak to You?

I have come across many people who have everything that society says you need to be successful in life, such as a great job, a great income, an amazing partner, children, a big house in a great neighborhood, cars, and social status. Yet, they have this feeling deep inside that something is missing.

They feel unhappy and lost as to why they are feeling that way when they have checked boxed all the things that are supposedly needed to have a successful life experience.

Why do people feel that way? You may be one of these people who is asking Why do I feel lost in life?

You are feeling lost in life because you are not living the path that will help you to fulfill your purpose and soul’s calling, which is why your soul decided to come onto this earth. 

You are here to please your creator, fulfill your divine assignment, and serve the people you are meant to serve with your unique gifts and natural talents that you are blessed with.

You may be wondering what to do when you feel lost. Let’s discuss that next.

What To Do When You Feel Lost?

Turning inward is the best thing you can do if you feel lost in life because all your answers, wisdom, and loving guidance are within you. Your soul knows exactly why you are here.

Pause, breathe, sit in silence, and ask these 10 questions to your soul so that you can stop feeling lost, discover your purpose, and live a meaningful, impactful, abundant life.

I suggest you go somewhere inspirational, like by the lake, to a park, and journal the answers to these questions.

Why Did I Choose To Come To Earth At This Time?

There is a reason why you are here right now. There is something you are here to do otherwise, you would not be here.

Figure out what lesson, evolution, you are meant to experience. Know without a doubt that you matter, are enough, and have the wisdom to fulfill your purpose. 

Discover what your purpose is, develop yourself for it, and then deploy it in the service of others. Ultimately, we are all here to grow, develop, serve others, and please our creator.

What Gifts, Messages, Or Healing Am I Here To Bring To The World?

You have been given unique gifts, which are one of the creative aspects of your creator, to fulfill your purpose.

Figure out what kind of healing you are here to provide and start serving and doing your work before it is too late, and it is time for you to go. Know that you are never alone, and your creator is always available to assist and guide you.

Where In Life Do I Feel Most Alive, And Why?

Joy and aliveness are your internal compass and an indication that you are on your purposeful path.

Figure out when you experience this and all the other true qualities of your essence(soul), like peace, love, abundance, wisdom, divine, pure, and powerful.

Purpose often hides in pain. What injustice or suffering awakens you? Your emotions are guiding you towards the problems that you are built for and meant to solve.

What False Identities Have I Outgrown?

What false identities and limiting beliefs that were created by your false self(ego) have you outgrown?
 
Always remember you are an eternal soul with a body, and all the rest of your worldly credentials, titles, and roles will cease to exist one day. Let your soul be in the driver’s seat and align with your soul identity and qualities.

Who Would I Be If I Stopped Living For Approval, Applause, Or Survival?

Strip away expectations for approval, applause, or survival. It is not necessary that you are enough, matter, belong, and are perfect just the way you are.
 
Spend your energy and precious time discovering your purpose, developing yourself for that purpose, and then fulfilling that purpose before it is too late.
 
So, do not waste your time looking for approval or applause and doing things so that you can survive.

What Truth Inside Me Have I Been Afraid To Speak?

Your voice is part of your purpose. Silence may be safe, but it is not your path. What truth inside you have you been too afraid to speak, and afraid of judgment, and safety?
 
The only person you should care about approving of you is yourself and your creator.  Your purpose is between you and your creator.

What Does A Meaningful, Soul-led Life Look Like For Me?

Ask what does meaningful soul-led life looks like for me. Not for your parents, not for your society, not for your Instagram, for YOU. 
 
What legacy do I want to leave, not in achievements, but in how I made people feel?
 
Purpose is not always what you do, but who you are while doing it. What do you want people to say about you after you are long gone?

What Is My Soul Aching To Become Before My Time On Earth Ends?

You were not born to simply exist. You were born to remember who you are and why you came here. You are here to grow, serve others, and please and obey your creator.

In conclusion, you are feeling lost in life because you are not living the path that will help you to fulfill your purpose and soul’s calling, which is why your soul decided to come onto this earth. 
 
You are here to please your creator, fulfill your divine assignment, and serve the people you are meant to serve with your unique gifts and natural talents that you are blessed with.
 
You also know what 10 questions to ask your soul to stop feeling lost in life and start living a purposeful, meaningful life.
 
You do not have to have all the answers today. But start asking the right questions. Sit with them. Honor them. Let them work through you and change you.
 
Your purpose is not out there. It is in here, buried beneath the noise, beneath the fear waiting. So, take the time. Sit in silence. And remember you are not here by accident. You are here by divine design.
 
Ask your soul. Follow your truth. Live on purpose.

Is It Okay Not To Want To Retire?

Most people choose to retire from their work at some point in their lives because that is what has been normalized by our society.
 
However, you may not be one of these people. What if you never want to retire? Is it okay not to want to retire?
 
It is okay not to want to retire if your work fuels your passion, you love the work that you do, believe that it is making a difference, impacting and transforming lives for the better and it is aligned with your mission, purpose, calling, and divine assignment that you came here on this earth to fulfill.

You will want to continue to do your work and serve others, at your chosen capacity, with the unique gifts that your creator has given you until the day that you take your very last breath.
 
You may be wondering how to derive fulfillment and joy from the work that you do. Next, let’s discuss some ways that will enable you to do that.

How To Make Your Work Feel Fulfilling

We were taught to find a job. Climb the ladder. Make the money. Get the title however no one asked, Does your soul feel alive when you work?
 
That is the real question because real success is not about profit or performance. It is about alignment. It is about waking up every day and knowing you are building something that matters to your soul.
 
Fulfillment in your work does not come from what you earn. It comes from what you embody, and that happens when you infuse your calling and spirit into everything you do. Here are some ways for you to begin to do that.

Redefine Work As Worship

Redefine your work as worship and use every opportunity to serve others with your calling. When your work becomes an offering, not just a task, you tap into something divine.
 
Ask yourself, how can I treat every client, member of the team, or product like sacred service?
 
Always intend to leave people better than you first found them. See how you can help your customers by creating products and services, experiences, and using your unique gifts, in alignment with your purpose. 

Turn Your Pain Into Purpose

Your struggles were not random. They shaped your mission. Ask what I have overcome that I can now help others with.
 
Fulfillment, meaning, abundance, and prosperity will be your byproduct and reward when you stay on purpose and serve others.

Let Your Gifts Guide Your Goals

What you are naturally good at is your soul showing you the way. Ask What do I do effortlessly that brings others light? There are things that you do that come naturally to you that others find hard to do.
 
You have been given certain aspects of creativity from your creator. Use them to serve others because that wisdom, and creativity are within you for a reason.

Make Values Your Work Plan

If peace, love, truth, and integrity are not part of the strategy, it will not feel like home. Ask what values will I never compromise for profit?
 
Let your values filter every decision that you make, no matter where you are. Do not do anything that is not in alignment with your soul and your creator.
 
Always live in alignment with the qualities of your soul(essence), which are peace, love, kindness, abundance, joy, purity, divinity, wisdom, and power.

Prioritize Alignment Over Achievement

If success costs you your spirit, it is not success. Ask am I building something that feeds my ego or frees my soul?
 
Always make all decisions based on your alignment and not achievement because the worldly titles, status, roles, and applause, are all going to not matter one day. 
 
If you live your life and do work in alignment with your soul, then that is going to be beneficial because your soul is everlasting and eternal.

Connect To The Creator Before You Create

Start with stillness and listen inward. Let divine guidance lead your decisions. Ask what my soul feels called to build today.
 
Your creator is always available to guide you to do your work until the day that you are done. Recognize the loving guidance through your intuition and many other available signs.
 
When you bring your soul into your work, your work becomes more than a job. It becomes a movement, a ministry, a mission.
 
People do not just buy your services. They feel your energy, sincerity, and truth. That is what they remember. That is what fulfills you. That is what lasts.

In conclusion, you now know it is okay to not want to retire if you feel passionate about and love the work that you do, believe that it is making a difference, impacting and transforming lives for the better and it is aligned with your mission, purpose, calling and divine assignment that you came here on this earth to fulfill.
 
You also learned about how to make your work feel more fulfilling by redefining your work as worship, turning your pain into purpose, letting your gifts guide your goals, making your values your business plan, prioritizing alignment over achievement, and connecting to the creator before creating.
 
You will want to continue to do your work and serve others, at your chosen capacity, with the unique gifts that your creator has given you until you take your last breath.
 
You were never meant to separate your spirit from your success. You were never meant to silence your calling to play it safe.
 
You were born to build something eternal from the inside out. So, go ahead create a business that feels like prayer. Do work that feels like purpose. Live aligned. And watch how fulfillment flows.
 
When your work becomes your worship, your success becomes your service. And that is fulfillment.

8 Steps To Transform Your Life

There comes a moment in your life when you realize you do not want to continue to live the way you have been living.
 
If you are craving peace, purpose, and something deeper, then here are the 8 steps you can begin to follow to transform and live a more fulfilling life.

Become Aware

The very first step to any transformation begins with awareness. You cannot change what you refuse to see. So, stop. Feel. Observe. Ask yourself: What’s not working in your life? This moment of truth is where your new life begins.

Set An Intention

Set an intention not just for what you want to transform and do, but who you want to become. Say it out loud. Intention gives your life a compass and direction to follow.

Decide

Decide. Not half-heartedly. Decide with your soul. Most people do not lack ability. They lack decision. A true decision cuts off all other options.
 
Decide what kind of rituals and habits you need to start doing to keep you progressing and moving forward towards your desired transformation.

Recognize

When you decide, life starts sending signals. Little whispers. Divine winks. Recognize them. You’re being guided, supported, and celebrated.
 
You are never alone, your creator is always here to give you signs and loving guidance via your intuition to help you continue down your chosen path.

Let Go

Letting go is not giving up. It is making space. For peace, alignment, and miracles. Release what no longer serves the version of you that you’re becoming.
 
There may be things that you have acquired that are not helping or serving you. It could be that you have been letting your false or ego self drive what you do in life instead of your soul. 

Expand

Now that you are lighter, life expands. You start seeing possibilities. You take risks. You trust more. This is the part where you start to live.
 
You have to take the right actions, habits to reach your destiny.  Figure out where you need to expand and grow. Acquire the skills and tools you need to acquire to get to be who you need to be.
 
The more you grow, the more you can serve your purpose in a bigger and better way, so figure out what those areas are that you need to expand in.

Have The Discipline

None of these changes will stick without discipline. Keep showing up for your soul, for your joy, for your future.
 
Have the discipline to continue to do the work on yourself on your purpose and have rituals and goals and habits every single day even if you don’t feel like doing those.
 
Make sure you do them and have the discipline to do that and keep the momentum going, because when you stop, it’s harder to restart.
 
If it is small habits that you do every day, make sure you continue to have that momentum.

Celebrate

Do not forget to celebrate. Every step. Every breath. Every win. You’ve come so far. Don’t skip the joy.
 
Celebrate wherever you are your small wins your big wins however you have grown and who you have become in the process always celebrate that you may not be at the end because healing is never linear there’s ups and downs.
 
So always know that it may not be easy it might be messy in the middle as you are transforming but the work is required for you to get to where you want to go which is living a fulfilling life.

In conclusion, you now know that when a person transforms, they turn inward and begin to consciously align with their essence, soul, and higher self, which has limitless potential and capabilities.
 
They begin to discover their purpose, why they are here, who they really are, where they have come from, and who they are here to serve.
 
You also learned the 8 steps you need to take to begin to transform your life, which are awareness, intention, decision, recognition, letting go, expansion, discipline, and celebration.

So, are you ready to transform your life?

The people who judge you are too scared to chase their dreams. Fear of judgment keeps you caged. The right people will be inspired by you, so focus on them.
 
You cannot let fear of judgment affect you because then you give your power away.  Instead of worrying about others judging you, focus on finding ways to please your creator and worry about fulfilling your purpose before it is too late. 
 
So, let people judge you, they do not understand your purpose. Your purpose is between your soul and your creator.

I Need To Have Everything Figured Out

Clarity comes from action, not from overthinking. You don’t need all the answers, just the next step. The path unfolds as you move forward.
 
There is no such thing as perfection, so always know you have to trust and you have to jump with fear in one hand and faith in the other. 
 
Show trust that the universe has your back and that life is happening for you. Do not let perfection paralyze you and keep you from taking the actions required to fulfill your purpose.

Failure Means I Should Quit

Failure is not the opposite of success; it is part of it. Every setback is a setup for a comeback. The only real failure is giving up.
 
Failure and mistakes are not bad. They are feedback, guidance, and results. They are teaching you something and perhaps guiding you to try a different path or take a different route. 
 
What you learn can be taught to others.  Everything that happens to you has a purpose and is in divine order. You are being developed for your purpose. 

My Dreams Are Too Big

If your dream does not scare you, it is not big enough. You were given your vision for a reason. The impossible is only impossible until someone does it. Why not you?
 
Your life has infinite possibilities. Always remember that and take the steps to move towards that vision of your life, it will pull you to move forward.

In conclusion, you now know that it is bad to habitually make excuses because it prevents us from trying new things in life moving forward, and being accountable for the impact of our actions and behavior on ourselves and others.
 
It also impedes our learning and growth and keeps us from taking the responsibility to create a meaningful, purposeful, and fulfilling life of our dreams.
 
We often make excuses because we feel hopeless because we believe life is happening to us. It causes us to experience stress and anxiety and affects our self-esteem and image negatively.
 
You are also now familiar with 10 of the most common excuses we use and how to shatter them and live your dream life.

10 Ways To Use Your Unique Gifts To Serve Others

We suppress them. We do not believe that we can help anyone and are capable of creating prosperity. Here are 10 possible ways to use your natural gifts to serve others and attract all the abundance you deserve.

Own Your Gifts And Stop Shrinking

Share What Comes Easy To You

There are things that you do effortlessly that others struggle with. This is a sign of the unique gift that you have been blessed with.
 
For example, if you love writing, speaking, organizing, or creating, start offering it. People will pay for what you do naturally.

Serve First, Prosperity Follows

Money follows the value that you add in the market place. The more you serve, the more you will receive. Offer help, share knowledge, create solutions, and watch how doors open.

Teach What You Have Learned

Your struggles were not just for you they were helping you develop and then serve others in a bigger and better way. Turn your lessons and transformations into books, courses, mentorship, or coaching. People need your journey.

Align Your Passion With Service

The secret to unlimited prosperity? Doing what you love in a way that helps others. Love art? Sell it. Love fitness? Train people. Love speaking? Inspire others.

Monetize Your Zone Of Genius

You deserve to be paid for your expertise. Turn your gifts into a business like consulting, freelancing your services, or selling digital products/ services.

Expand, Do Not Limit Yourself

Your gifts can take many forms; explore them all. A singer can teach music. A writer can do copywriting. A speaker can create courses. Think bigger.

Surround Yourself With People Who See Your Light

Your environment can amplify or diminish your gifts. Stay close to people who believe in your potential and distance yourself from those who make you doubt it.

Use Social Media To Amplify Your Gift

Your audience will resonate with you and is waiting for you. You just have to show up and begin serving.

Believe You Are Worthy Of Prosperity

No one will value your gifts if you do not first. Step into your power, know your worth and claim the prosperity meant for you.

Does God Talk To Us?

There is no one better than God, our creator, to guide us in all aspects of life, especially when we face difficulties and challenges. We have been created in his image and are, therefore, just like him.
 
We have the responsibility to reflect and represent him on this earth. Is God available for guidance? Does God talk to us?
 
God most definitely talks to us. However, it is up to us to open the door to receive his messages by believing it is possible and creating a quiet space so that we can hear his guidance.
 
The more we can recognize, listen to, and follow this guidance, the more we will be able to live our true, meaningful, purposeful, and fulfilling lives.
 
Everyone experiences God’s communication differently. For example, some people hear his voice and guidance, while others see his messages written on a screen.
 
God can also speak to us through his creation, like other people that he places in our lives, and sightings of certain animals that we see, which represent a message from him.
 
He also uses dreams, desires, visions, events, and circumstances to convey his message and guidance to us.

Are Friends More Influential Than Parents?

Children grow up so quickly and they soon go out into the world where they are influenced by many different things competing for their attention like the media, peers, teachers, etc.
 
Do parents always have the most influence on their children or are friends more influential than parents?
 
Most parents are the children’s most significant influence and role model up to a certain age when there is less opportunity for outside influences to take over. However, whether that continues to be the case throughout their lives will depend on their relationship with their parent(s).
 
If the child does not feel securely attached to their parents and has parents who are either absent, neglectful, very judgmental, or non-accepting, making them believe they are not enough and are constantly comparing them to others (siblings, friends) then the chances are higher that the parent’s influence will become less and less trusted over friends who are more accepting and not judgmental of them.
 
So, how do you remain influential in your child’s life so that you can always be approachable, trusted, and available to guide them when needed? Let’s discuss that next.

8 Ways to Make Sure Your Kids Seek Your Advice (At Any Age)

Every parent wants their child to feel like they can come to them for advice when needed. However, let’s be honest many kids grow up and stop seeking advice from their parents. Why?
 
Because trust and connection are not built overnight. Here are 8 ways to create an environment where your children not only value your advice but actively seek it no matter their age.

Listen More Than You Speak

When a child feels heard, they will come to you again. Most parents rush to give advice, but children need to feel understood first. Instead of interrupting, ask, “Tell me more.” Validate their emotions before offering guidance.

Be A Safe Space, Not A Judge

Your child will not come to you if they fear punishment or judgment. If your child thinks you will overreact, they will turn to someone else for advice. Create a space where they can tell you anything without fear.

Admit When You Are Wrong

Vulnerability builds trust. When you own your mistakes, your child learns that wisdom is not about being perfect it is also about learning. Saying “I was wrong, and I have learned from it” makes your advice more credible.

Share Lessons, Not Just Rules

Kids do not just need rules they need the ‘why’ behind them. Instead of saying, “Do not do that,” explain, “I made this mistake when I was younger, and here is what I learned.” Personal stories make your advice stick.

Respect Their Independence

Your child is a person, not a project. If you try to control every decision, they will rebel or shut you out. Instead, guide them with wisdom, then let them make choices. When they trust you respect their autonomy, they will keep coming back for advice.

Lead By Example

Your actions teach louder than your words. If you want your child to value your wisdom, live it. Show kindness, humility, and integrity in your own life, and they will naturally seek your guidance.

Show Them You Trust Their Judgement

The more you believe in them, the more they will believe in themselves. If you constantly question their choices, they will stop seeking your input. Instead, say, “I trust you will make the right decision, but if you need help, I am here.”

Always Keep The Door Open

No matter what they do, they need to know they can always come home. Even if they make mistakes or pull away, never make them feel unwelcome. A child who knows they are unconditionally loved will always return for advice when they need it.

In conclusion you now know most parents are the children’s most significant influence and role model up to a certain age when there is less opportunity for outside influences to take over.
 
However, whether that continues to be the case throughout their lives will depend on their relationship with their parent(s).
 
You also learned 8 ways to make sure your kids always seek your advice (at any age) like listening more than speaking, not judging and being a safe space, admitting you are wrong when justified, sharing lessons not just rules, respecting their independence, leading by example, showing them you trust their judgment and always keeping the door open.
 
The foundation you build today determines whether your child will seek your advice for life. Start now. Listen more, judge less, and always keep the door open!
