If you eliminated all the people in your life asking you questions, pressuring you, and telling you what to do – where would you be?
At one point in your life, you’re going to have to fake it until you make it. That point in your life might just be now, in your 20’s, when you literally have no idea what’s going on.
You don’t want to be living at home. You don’t know where you want to work, let alone get anyone to hire you. You thought you got everything together in your four years of college, but now you’re faced with a whole new challenge that no one prepared you for. Yeah, you knew you had to get a job and you knew you had to move home and you knew life wouldn’t be as fun – but you really didn’t expect you to hit you this hard.
People you graduated with are getting jobs and you see them announce it on Facebook. They’re posting pictures of their new apartments and awesome lives while you’re sitting on your couch binge watching another TV show and hoping your mom comes home with food.
Not even the people who look like they have it figured out actually have it figured out. I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone in my life who 100% has their life together. No one does, we all just keep going along with whatever is thrown at us. It’s okay to not know what you’re doing because literally no one else does either. We fake it until we make it until we kind of realize what we’re supposed to do with our life and how to get there.
So calm down, take your time, because you can do it. Just like everyone else.
Love it! You are so right. Sometimes I think I will never know what to do with my life. But as you say we have to keep calm and then we’ll see that we can make it. And I also think that we should never have our lives totally planned. It won’t work out a 100% anyway and where would the adventure be?! xx

I agree! The more you plan, the more things that seem to go wrong. It’s more fun to not know what’s going on 🙂

No-one has got it all worked out, we’re all just doing our best and taking each day as it comes.
