hi everyone
hope everyone is doing good…this is my first ever thread here (life 1)…
I’ve just graduated from highschool…n for me college is a big change..im starting a new phrase of my life..n i need to prioritize everything from most important to least imporant..right now my life is a complete mess…My current schedule goes something like: wake up @10:30, eat breakfast, raom around the house, watch tv, net,cook something if mom wants me to, do homework (around 2:00),eat, go to college @ 6:30 (im taking evening classes), come back home 10:00, eat, watch tv and go to bed. I seriously need to take the hold of my life..i guess being independent (i live at home..I comute as it only takes 25 mins to get to college) means loads of responsibilities..and im so used to listening to instructions that i can’t operate on my own..weird..huh? I dont do anything constructrive except for 2-3 hours (when im studying) like i dont pray, dont read etc.
So im just curious to know how do you all priortize your time? and what do you think is YOUR purpose in this life? are you just living it b/c u have to? living it for someone? living it to please Allah? or ???
what is your purpose of life? there is obviously a reason why are all brought into this World…is there not?
And i want to know about you n your life…so please dont tell me how i ought to live my life ..i 've listened to all of that:) -im not talking about how we all should be living our live (Islamically)..rather how we are living right now..
nothing...bas mazay karo aur abadi mein katir khuva increase karo aur pir jab old ho jao to beard rekh lo aur islamic ban jao aur pir mutliple visa par heaven yeh hell fly kar jao..
First of all, you need to set your priorities straight.
What is the one thing in the world you would like to do the most?
I am in a similiar situation as you are. I am currently going to college for a bachelor's degree, but that is not what I want.
I have always been an avid cricket fan, and dreamt of being a cricketer one day for the Pakistani team. Everyone I know tell me that it is too late to pursue a cricketing career. (I am 20 years old) but I am keep working hard on become a better player, and hopefully can fullfill my dream one day.
Try to find something you like and try to achieve that goal.
Also the inclusion of religion in my life also helped find out more about myself. I am a much more secure person and now I know what I want to do with my life.
^ You don't have to be on some national cricket team to get fulfillment...
You can coach kids how to play cricket, or young adults. :) Try coaching, you might actually like it more...and it can be a good side-activity to your main career.
Its not just about playing cricket, which I do everyday, its about the Passion for playing for my country and representing the name of Pakistan in the international scence.
I know its a major risk, that if I leave college and go to Pakistan and join some academy, but you always have to take risks in life to achieve happinness.
I am not a big fan of 9-5 work shifts and coming home to my family and pretty much spend my whole life in this fashion, I want to do new things and travel around the world and be famous.
