Are You Living Your Best Life?
Although human beings only get one life to live each, many of them do not really live their best lives. This can be a bit of a haunting, depressing thought – with one precious life to live and experience everything the world has to offer, what happens if you aren’t living your best life?
Learning how to live well and determining if you’re doing everything you need to do to live your best life can feel overwhelming. In some cases, it requires you to make some major changes to ensure you’re doing everything you can to make your life the best. However, there are some important aspects to consider when you reflect on your current life and what it means to live the best one possible.
It’s important to remember that everyone’s definition of a “best life” varies greatly.
The world of constant social media updates can lead to some very unrealistic ideas about what someone’s “best life” should look like. When you see a regularly-updating stream of graduations, new houses, promotions, fancy vacations, expensive purchases, and more, it’s easy to experience the fear of missing out (FOMO) and feel like you aren’t living your best life.
In this situation, it’s important to remember that everyone experiences special high points in their lives – these aren’t events that happen every day, so of course they’re instantly social media-worthy.
Also, it’s important to remember that what constitutes “living your best life” to you may not align with everyone else’s idea of the same concept. Living your best life is unique to your specific needs and preferences. The most important part of living your best life is to do it in a way that makes you feel satisfied and happy.
What are some questions to ask yourself if you’re trying to determine if you’re living your best life?
Understanding whether or not you’re living your best life can be difficult to determine. Often, living your best life involves a lot of variables and details. To better organize your thoughts and reflect on the matter, consider the following questions:
- Do you feel like you need to accomplish something before you can live your best life?
Sometimes people place limits on themselves, believing that they can’t truly feel happy or live their best life until they meet some sort of requirement or standard. For example, some common limits include…
- “I’ll feel happier when I drop 20 pounds.”
- “I can feel successful once I finally land my dream job.”
- “I’ll be living my best life once I’m married and have two children.”
…and so on. Limiting thoughts like these may stop you from living your best life in the present because you feel like you aren’t going to feel happy or satisfied until you meet those ultimate goals.
- Are there any parts of your life that don’t feel quite, right?
People are meant to change as they develop and grow as human beings. This will mean that parts of your life may begin to feel uncomfortable or not quite right anymore. When this happens, it’s important to identify what’s feeling “off” so you can change them to better suit your current needs. Not changing these parts of your life as you develop can stop you from living your best life.
- Is there anything you’d love to experience more frequently in your life?
Do you feel better when you spend some time outdoors? Do you enjoy meeting new people? Do you get excited when you learn a new skill? If so, find ways to incorporate more of these experiences into your everyday life. Prioritizing what you enjoy and what makes you happy is one of the best ways to ensure you’re living your best life.
Make it a great day!
