The 10 Hardest Questions You Can Ask Yourself About Your Life
March 10
Some nights I can’t even sleep because I am overwhelmed with excitement to see so many people I love and cherish deeply all together. I’ve never done a blog before, but I thought it might be nice — and kind of therapeutic — to do one leading up to the big celebration in NOLA. I’m not sure what the rhythm will be. This might be the first and the last entry, LOL… but here’s a start.
Planning this NOLA celebration has thrust me into a lot of self-reflection. It has me pondering my journey in personal growth over the years and reflecting on my life philosophy. Sixty years on this planet… what did I do, and what did it mean?
I sought out the top ten most important questions one should ask themselves in life. It’s a harder exercise than I thought! I challenge you to ask yourself these questions. Apparently, answering them can help us live a more conscious, intentional life. I’m not sure if I’m eager to share all the answers, but I will share what feels right.
— Ten of the most important questions a person can ask themselves, according to expert advice and self-help sources:
Am I happy? (And if not, why?)
For what in my life do I feel most grateful?
What am I avoiding or fearful of facing about myself? (Used to identify the core issue.)
What does success look like for me?
What is my deepest value or purpose?
Who am I becoming as a result of this chase?
What is the “worst” that can happen? (To face fears and assess risks.)
What patterns in my life keep repeating, and what is triggering them?
Am I living the life I want, or the life others expect of me?
If I had a week left to live, what would I do?
