Although you seem to be living a picture-perfect life, with a “dream” job, a well appointed home, and all the comfort anyone could dream of, you’ve been feeling empty, uninspired or bored.
What gives?
Before you berate yourself for having unreasonable expectations, there may be something very legitimate behind your unhappiness.
Here are 7 reasons why you may be unhappy, although you seem to have everything.
1. You’ve built your life for appearances
Could you have been blinded by prestige and recognition?
Pursuing important or prestigious sounding objectives, titles, and accolades has always been a driving force for you.
However, if you tend to see your endeavors through the filter of how others will perceive you, you may have been following someone else’s success blueprint—a success blueprint that is not adapted to your true inner calling.
In other words, your life may have been built for looks but not for your deeper aspirations!
2. You haven’t been true to yourself.
Like many women, you may have been conditioned to doubt yourself and ignore your better judgment.
As a result, you tend to operate as an approval junkie who’s accommodating to a fault, and allows others’ visions and needs to take precedence over your own.
Ultimately, this could have led you to build a life misaligned with your true aspirations and leaves you feeling uninspired.
3. You have wandered in the wrong direction
Could your unhappiness be caused by you having gone off-track?
Whether you’ve climbed the wrong ladder, chosen the wrong profession, or gotten stuck in the wrong role, somewhere along the line, the successes you’ve achieved don’t truly hold meaning for you.
You’ve wandered off in the wrong, and your life is in need of a realignment.
4. Your big heart has been playing tricks on you.
You have a big heart, and you love helping others. This is a beautiful trait.
Unfortunately, if you also have a tendency to succumb to Superwoman syndrome, get lost in other people’s drama, and allow your rescue missions to sidetrack you, you’re likely to find yourself entangled in other people’s battles and neglect your own.
Obviously, when your soul calling takes the back seat for too long, you eventually begin to feel unfulfilled.
5. Imposter syndrome has held you back.
You’re a bright and talented woman who is known for her fierceness… in her career!
When it comes to your true aspirations, it’s a whole other story.
The novel you’ve been secretly working on is never good enough, and it’s never the right time for the business you’ve been dreaming of launching.
You hide your gifts out of fear of judgment or of not being good enough.
And you remain secretly unfulfilled.
6. You pick the wrong fights
You’re determined to stand your ground, and you don’t let others walk all over you.
Unfortunately, this could have led you to pick the wrong fights and remain in the wrong situations when you should have thrown in the towel and moved on.
7. You’ve made too many compromises
You’re afraid to make waves, and you try hard to get along with everyone… at all costs.
And this has taken a huge toll on your well-being.
Whether in your professional or personal life, you’ve been making too many compromises, and the trade-offs are simply too high.
Keeping the peace has thrown your life out of balance, and it has been costing you your soul and your happiness.
Reclaiming bliss: what’s next?
I know it’s a huge blow to realize that your life was built on the wrong foundations and that you will need to make significant changes to reclaim your bliss.
I have been there myself, and I know firsthand that it is not a pleasant realization.
Two options:
From there, you have two options.
– You can pretend everything is fine, find ways to numb yourself, and keep a stoic face in the midst of your misery.
– Alternatively, you can make changes and realign your life with happiness, joy, purpose, passion, fulfillment, and all that wonderful juiciness!
It’s your decision.
If your choice is A, no need to read further.
If your choice is B, then here are some suggestions.
Your best next steps!
Reigniting your life starts with identifying the deep causes of your life malaise, or your life misalignment.
Did you recognize yourself in any or all of the 7 reasons I shared above?
If so, you will need to upgrade not only your life, but also your mindset for lasting results.
A career change, a new certification—those types of superficial adjustments, won’t be enough if you have a tendency to let yourself down.
Luckily, although the kind of mindset upgrade needed to level up may sound like a big ordeal, it doesn’t have to be.
It’s simply about expanding yourself to take the space you were meant to take and embody all the qualities you were meant to embody to create the life you truly deserve.
This is basically about returning to yourself.
You already have the answers; you simply have to retrieve them and allow them to lead your life.
And the good news is, you don’t have to walk it alone.
