Where You Want To Reach

Everyone wants to reach somewhere or else but What IF some of us want to reach nowhere in particular in their career.

Is it OK or is it that bad to not tie your life to some goal.

When I changed my job I met few people who have the aim on their first day to get this and that position and then there was me who don't even know what position she wants to reach in future. For a few moments I felt dumb but then I thought, is it really necessary that if I am doing some job or something, then I have to reach the particular position in it.

I always think that I just want to get experience and grow myself with it. Not to reach somewhere, but to make myself more skillful and more better person which can help me in my life and I will eventually reach somewhere where I belong and to reach there doesn't mean I have to know the destination. I am more of a person who go with the flow and if doesn't like the flow, then will try to change it, but I was never sure enough about my destination though.

Now I think that not being sure about where to reach in my career, is it that bad??

Some big people said long time ago that you have to tie your life to your aim or goal, so you can get succeed and reach where you want. Your life should consist some kind of a goal and blah blah blah.

I don't have any particular goal. I just have some thoughts and I just want to learn. I have hope that whatever I do if I do with my whole being then I will learn something new and grow myself with that experience and will reach somewhere eventually. I tie my life to no particular goal. I tie my life to living in the moment, living this time and I am OK with it.

People who love to reach some particular position are also great because they know what they exactly want from life and they try to achieve it by taking effort, but then people like me also exist who don't have any idea about which position they want in their career and I guess it's OK to not know. You don't know where your destiny will take you no matter how good your plan is. That doesn't mean you stop taking efforts, but it's just mean that destiny does matter in some situations and though you know your goal or not, but you have to take effort to move on somewhere, which I am taking.

So the moral of the story is that I still don't know my goal and I am around 27-28 years old, but yes, I am taking effort to be good in whatever I am doing right now and if all goes well then I am sure I will reach where I belong though I don't have any good career plan but I have hope and faith on my efforts. And I am quite sure I am not the only one who don't have any career plan or pre-decided position to reach and If you are one of them then it's OK. Just breath. Do whatever you are doing, but keep moving forward bit by bit. 

You will eventually get somewhere and hopefully it will work for you. Because not all believe to tie their life to the future goals of career, some of us believe to tie their life to present moment, present time. Not everyone wants to fight with the flow to reach their destination. Some are OK to going with it by taking their own pace.

So I guess it's OK to not know where you want to reach, but you should keep moving so you can reach your unknown destination at the end.
