Should there always be a goal?
What if you seem to have achieved all your goals in life, but no new ones?
The answer is not to get upset. The absence of global goals at any period of life is NORMAL!
Surely, you have small goals: to cook a new outlandish dish, wait until the end of quarantine, lose a couple of kilograms to the body, or something else - is the example clear?
But the global goal: to buy a new car, build a house in Canada, become a movie star … (let's call it “GOAL UP”), it must “mature”, its birth cannot be rushed. Otherwise, it may be an incomplete or incorrectly formulated goal. And then you can go to her and not understand why endless obstacles stand in the way, and every action aimed at achieving the goal turns into a quest. Give this process time. After all, the difficulty of finding a new goal can be caused by its irrelevance.
Irrelevant goals - goals that do not correspond to your level of development, are not identical to your personality - this is the “UP Goal”! Its appearance is an incentive for personal growth, the acquisition of those qualities, without which it is impossible to achieve this global goal. You need to be ready for changes, for the fact that changes will require efforts from you.
Not everyone wants to change something in themselves, because our brain at the subconscious level believes that the way it is today is the best, even if you consciously assert otherwise and the way it is does not suit you personally. It is important to track this moment, this state. Otherwise, instead of setting and achieving your “UP Goal”, you can spend your whole life on achieving someone else’s goals disguised as “Common Good”, for example, or other options to your taste.
Summing up, we can say that there may not be a goal and this is normal. If you just now discover that it never happened, this is also normal, perhaps you are just participating in the achievement of someone's goal. And if you discovered this and want to set your own personal goal, this is a solvable task. But not very fast. Sometimes you may need the help of a specialist who will help you systematize your existing life experience, prioritize and lead to setting a new goal or even several goals! Thanks to this, your life will sparkle with new colors!

Last weekend with her eldest daughter I watched the world-renowned fascinating science fiction thriller "The Butterfly Effect" (with all four endings for the film).
