How to Discover Your Life Purpose in About 20 Minutes How do you discover your real purpose in life? I’m not talking about your job, your daily responsibilities, or even your long-term goals. I mean the real reason why you’re here at all — the very reason you exist. Perhaps you’re a rather nihilistic person who doesn’t believe you have a purpose and that life has no meaning. Doesn’t matter. Not believing that you have a purpose won’t prevent you from discovering it, just as a lack of belief in gravity won’t prevent you from tripping. Here’s a story about Bruce Lee which sets the stage for this little exercise. If you want to discover your true purpose in life, you must first empty your mind of all the false purposes you’ve been taught (including the idea that you may have no purpose at all). So how to discover your purpose in life? Here’s what to do: Take out a blank sheet of paper or open up a word processor where you can type (I prefer the latter because it’s faster).Write at the top, “What is my true purpose in life?” That’s it.

(Source: reginabrett.com) How To Figure Out What You Want In Life It’s so much easier to know what we don’t want in life. Society has trained us pretty well to think this way. We protest against war, against hunger, against murders, etc... Not surprisingly, we forget to fight for what we want. Maybe you're in a career that you wanted five or 10 years ago but it’s not making you happy anymore. Or maybe you attempted different career paths, but didn't find much success. Or you're in the middle of grad school and feeling that this is not what you want. Why did all of this happen to you? You're simply ignoring your inner guide! You’ve been too focused on chasing a specific outcome (such as money or title) that is not aligned with your unique strengths, values and passion. The same concept is applied in every single area of life, such as spirituality, career, relationships, wealth, and so on. But when you pause every now and then to check-in with your inner guide, everything will fall into its natural place. It’s not easy to find time for yourself, I know. 1.
Ways Adults With Asperger's Syndrome Can Improve Their Social Skills I've read quite a bit about Asperger's Syndrome, in books and academic articles, but also through a ton of forum posts by people who have it. Below is my synthesis of what seems to help them improve their social skills the most. I'll just be talking about very general ideas. I'm not going to reveal some earth-shattering secret to improvement that everyone else seemed to miss or anything. People with Asperger's Syndrome (AS) can definitely make progress their social skills. Figure out where you stand when it comes to your social goals and values I've read at least two dozen research journal articles that lay out the curricula for therapeutic various social skills training groups, and this never seems to come up. People with Asperger's Syndrome often have extremely mixed feelings about the idea of improving their social skills. Someone else may decide that some aspects of socializing rub them the wrong way, but they're willing to be pragmatic and play along to get what they want.
28 of the best pieces of advice about life you'll ever read Have the courage to live a life true to yourself, not the life others expect of you. Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity. “There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self.” Don’t make decisions when you’re angry. “Never argue with a stupid person, they’ll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.” Only pack what you can carry yourself. Remember you’ll always regret what you didn’t do rather than what you did. “You’d worry less about what people think about you if you knew how seldom they do.” If you blame it on someone else, don’t expect it to get better. “You can be the ripest, juiciest peach in the world, but there will always be someone who hates peaches.” If the grass is greener on the other side, there’s probably more manure there. Don’t give up what you want most for what you want now. With regards to the opposite sex: If you look hungry, you’ll starve.
How to Stop Worrying: Self-Help for Anxiety Relief Why is it so hard to stop worrying? Constant worrying takes a heavy toll. It keeps you up at night and makes you tense and edgy during the day.
