What to Do When You Have No Idea What to Do: 15 of the Best Ideas
- Stop fighting it. Just accept you are having a fuzzy, confused, indecisive, non-action oriented day.
- Talk a walk. Or a run.
- Do mindless tasks.
- Learn something new.
- Borrow a brain.
- Try meditation.
- Do something creative.
- Help someone else.
What if I have no passion for anything?
If you think you have no passion for something because you aren’t achieving certain things in it, think again. There is no need to put pressure on your enjoyment of a passion by insisting that, if it really is a passion, you’d do X, Y, or Z. Just enjoy the process of doing it, whatever that may be.
Do you have to find your passion to take action?
Before you read on, grab a pen and a blank sheet of paper and write down the answers to each question, because it will help you eliminate some of the overwhelm, uncertainty, and fear. And always remember, you don’t have to find your passion in order to start taking action. Many people make it into another excuse.
Why can’t I find the energy to keep up with my passion?
Nobody will always be able to find the energy or motivation to keep up with a passion all of the time. Life happens. You get busy. You find you are struggling to commit to something you believed was a passion. So you write it off as something you must not be that passionate about after all.
Do you have to be passionate about one thing to succeed?
Society tells us that being passionate about one thing will drive you to success. I hate to tell you but that is BS! I am not passionate about any one thing, but a lot of things, and I am fine just that way I am!
