  • Feeling low became a habit for this generation. The more we grow more we feel this. Sometimes none of the therapy doesn't seems to help. At one point everything feels good but as soon as we start to smile we go sad again for so reasons. I want everyone to be happy in every way they want. I don't know what is life but living fullest with close ones really makes sense.

  • I’m 47 years old & I love your channel. I’m what you would call a “late bloomer.” I’m doing things behind the scenes to create the life I desire. I knew in my 20s that corporate life wasn’t for me, but I was a teen mom & had a family to take care of. So I struggled for years job & school hopping trying to figure things out. The beauty is that all of it is purposeful. I don’t regret a thing. Your channel helps keep me motivated for when I take the big leap AGAIN. Thank you.

  • I'm 25, unemployed and living with my parents. The career I studied was not for me (teaching), and I won't be working on this as it is just not for me. When I had to apply to university I had no idea on what to study, and everyone suggested teaching, I thought I was going to like it through the years, but that never happened, and I now I feel like I just wasted 5 years of my life and I have nothing now. I'm so depressed. A few months ago, I used to be motivated, and started pursuing other career, but I feel so behind and frustrated, I guess I kind of gave up.

I also didn't pick education major and people encouraged me to study that (I wanted something else), but I'm already in 5th semester.. I don't know what to do now.. I just I can make it by the end of January.

    • Scary how exactly similar my situation is. I went through the exact same thing as you - except I didn't even finish the teacher programme at uni. I felt like I wasted 4 years and without even any degree to show for it. At least you graduated, which is something you should feel proud of. There are a bunch of career paths you can go from teaching so don't give up!

    • Same here. I had to go to teaching cause I just loved languages and it was a public college. I even thought that teaching would be a plan B to have money and just literally work, but turns out that to me, the negative parts of a school, is REALLY not worthy it to me, some places are just terrible with teaching and I had VERY BAD and negative experiences with that so I definitely know that maybe that was a sign that that's not for me, specially kindergarten teaching. Bur it is very tough to understand that, cause I thought I WAS the problem for such a long time.

    • Don't be depressed, time spent trying is never wasted. You are young, I'm 34 and still not sure what I want to do. I thought I found something in my early 20s but I didn't look around enough and try enough avenues. I owned a sub franchise for sales and recruiting with AT&T, I liked it but I was working too much, 60-100hrs a week and it took time away from my children. I traveled and had a lot of neat experiences but I can never get the time back with my children, I tried to build a financial life for them. Now I need to find another way. I'm reading The Power of Now she showed the book in this video it is really good. Work with the Now as it is, not against it!

  • You're really inspiring. I once read something which makes me less anxious: Our society thinks that success is only valid if it's "forever". This is not true, because if you felt happy, fulfilled, and passionate about something, for whatever amount of time, it is valid and it is still a success even if you decide for yourself, that you don't want to do this "forever".

  • 0:12 “How do you know what you want to do with life? You don’t. You figure it out as you go. You follow the curiosity and slowly the answer will reveal itself in time.” 1:42 “You have to be able to follow your heart.” 4:02 “Failures are guiding you in the right direction. It’s ok to fail.” 4:11 “Those were failures that taught me lessons and led me in the right direction.” 6:43 “If you believe the pros outweigh the cons, then you’re willing to stick it through and you’re willing to persuade regardless of how difficult it gets.” 7:37 “What makes me come alive? Where do I light up? What do I have the most energy for?” 6:59 “Find that spark” 7:38 Ask yourself, what makes me come alive? Where do I light up? What do I have the most energy for?” 8:22 “What’s important to you in your life? What is your ideal lifestyle?” 8:44 “it’s so important to know those things or at least start to ask yourself those questions.” 8:47 “Once you have a grand vision, of what you want out of your life, then you can kind of work backwards and be like, okay does this step take me closer or further away from that vision?” 10:30 “Your time is what matters and time is something that you can’t buy back. Time is the most valuable asset in life.” 11:29 “If you are going in a certain direction and it doesn’t feel right, don’t be afraid to start over from scratch.” 12:33 Don’t be afraid if your intuition tells you “oh I went a wrong way.” 13:00 Nothing is ever wasted. 13:14 Everything that you’ve ever done in life, experienced, learned is a part of you now and it can be used towards what you’re meant to do in the future. 14:06 Everything that you experienced prior to now you can use.

  • Thank you, I needed this. I turned 30 last year & I've been with this cycle of not knowing what to do with my life throughout my 20's. As someone with a lot of different interest (it can be hard to pick just 1 thing). I decided to dive in to one area at a time & give it the attention it needs to see what fits and what doesn't (like you mentioned in the video). My current focus is Art (painting, digital & traditional), to go along with that I really need to work being consistent.

I've picked many things over what i like simply because i fear i would have less opportunities in the future. i know i still have lots of time but it's still something that stresses me out daily and to know that you've felt the same but figured it out eventually brings me lots of comfort

I hate waking up to stressing myself out in order to make someone else money, plus the workplace toxicity and toxic managers. It’s just not worth my mental wellbeing. I want to paint, learn about making pottery, travel, visit museums, see different things because I didn’t have the opportunity growing up to do anything but work.

I think many people dont ask these. I have been on the same path as you while working through being a survivor of C- PTSD. My goal has been to come through this: to realise me. My journey, however, has been different from yours because I didnt try things and I didnt have the right process to come through my condition. Yet, I have began to come through and to find answers and directions. Youre right, the pursuut of finding are dream life isnt easy. And its true, what we want❤ reveals itself if we go forward and listen along the way to what feels right and what sparks us. Ive recently learned to create something everyday and from there direction and answers reveal itself. I feel pressure around money. Im much older than you, yet I have learned that doing things just for the money creates problems. Bless you.

  • Dear Aileen , I've been watching your videos for so many years , I think I first started watching at 16-17 , a time where I was lost and didn't know what to do after finishing high school. I was lost but found a way that I liked a little bit so I took that way. Pandemic came and life turned upside down. I grew up and now I'm 23 , after trying a certain path I realised I am unhappy. Nothing has changed since I was 17 , I still want the same things but I lack the bravery and courage to choose to take risks. I need take action, but I am so fearful of wasting my time. Your video really helped me and gave me comfort though , maybe a sign to finally make the choice to follow my heart? I wish that next time I comment on a similar video I can tell you that I finally made the brave choice of following my heart and beginning my journey towards my dreams 💕 Sorry for the long text , just needed to get things off my chest in this positive community

  • In high school I always wanted to get a job in the video industry (KZhead or Hollywood) but due to my trauma from my dad constantly being laid off and then later being raised by my single mom making only minimum wage, I decided to go to college to get a good stable job. I now have a government job that has amazing work/life balance and pays really well, but I know it's not what I want to do forever. I've finally healed enough of my limiting beliefs/trauma so that I can pursue videography and feel safe doing so, and my current job has been an amazing foundation for enabling me to do this! It pays me well so I can afford expensive video equipment, and it gives me a lot of free time to work on this side hustle. Would never in a million years change getting a degree and getting my current job! I don't regret it for a second, even if it means changing paths later on.

  • I have heard a saying that when you think more about "what should I do", the energy you transmit to the universe is full of "I don't know what to do", so the universe will let you immerse yourself in "you don't know what to do". Because we are all part of the cosmic energy, how we treat the opposite energy in us determines how we view the positive energy in our life. Thank you for the video, the energy of many people will become more stable because of this video, stability is the basis of all possibilities, and anxiety in it is the last thing we need.

  • I'm 25 and from Wales, UK. I've been to University twice, both times feeling certain that was the path i wanted to take. Unfortunately they didn't work out and i didn't feel like they were the paths for me. I left my most recent endeavour a little over a year ago now. I'm currently in a very depressed and uncertain place. I hate not having structure in my life as before this i've had plans to do things. At the moment i have no plans but i know i want something more than what i'm doing now. Thinking about what career to take is honestly so draining and i feel a lot of pressure around myself to succeed and to be more. I'd love to be someone who was certain about the life they wanted but i'm not that fortunate. It's very tiring 😮‍💨

I am 39 & can relate to your personality type as well as having tried many different paths only to find what works & what doesn’t. I am still learning how to trust my heart & intuition despite the what-ifs or fears. As a highly creative & sensitive person, I am finally seeing how it’s ok to create my life as I go, just like I do with creative projects. I don’t like the feeling that I’ve “wasted time;” but maybe that doesn’t really exist anyway, because we are constantly able to re-create things. Thanks for the inspiration I needed right now that I’m on the right track, especially if I always follow what lights me up inside. ☁️🤩☁️

Think about things that made you happy when you were a kid. Think about the activities that you wanted to do after school. And try them again to see if these are things that still bring happiness to your Life! Sometimes these just go, and you don't even realize that you're "losing" a part of your true self!
