Feeling Lost? Can’t find your purpose?

We’re all searching for the meaning of life.
Maybe its time to take some action?

Are you lost? Stuck in a dead end job? Feeling undervalued? Not sure what the point of it all is? Then this is the poster for you!

Be passive aggressive – print it out and leave it on your bosses desk! Or get all your colleagues together and form a picket line on the sidewalk!

Riot my friends. Ask for more pay. Start a revolution.

I’m not having a good day

Sometimes you just have a bad day. What do you do to get yourself out of the funk? I have listed a few books at the bottom of the page that are quick reads and great at giving you a kick in the ass.

Nine questions to help you find your passion.

Excerpt From: Richard Wiseman.  “Shoot for the Moon.”

Unfortunately, when life gets complicated and busy, people often forget what puts a spring in their step. If that sounds like you, use this technique to identify your natural passions.

      1. List three moments in your life when you felt especially excited, enthusiastic and alive.
      2. Picture yourself locked in a room where you are only allowed to read books and magazines about one topic. Which topic would you choose?
      3. Imagine that you are financially secure and therefore free to do whatever you like with your life. After travelling the world, buying a house or two, supporting deserving friends and family and donating to your favourite charities, what would you do with your life?
      4. What did you love doing when you were a child? Are there any childhood toys or objects that you have held on to over the years? If so, why?
      5. What hobbies and interests did you once enjoy but are now not part of your life?
      6. Pretend to yourself that that you are in your twilight years. Look back over your life and think about how you wished you had spent the last thirty years. What regrets do you have? What do you wish you had done?
      7. Imagine that you can create something new. It can be anything at all. Maybe it’s a new type of wheelbarrow, a new superhero, a new website or a new way of learning to play the guitar. What would you create?
      8. Have you ever been engaged in an activity and suddenly noticed that time has whizzed by? Maybe you thought that you had been working away for thirty minutes, only to discover that a few hours have passed. What were you doing at the time?
      9. Imagine being given a large board and asked to cover it in pictures that appeal to you. You are allowed to stick any photograph, drawing or image that you like on the board. What kind of pictures would you place on it?
