What would you like to do?

It’s an excellent question.  Stop an ask yourself “What WOULD I like to do?”  Are you doing what you like?  Is it difficult to do what you like?  Do you feel selfish doing what you like? Or is doing what you like impractical?  Do you even know what you’d like to do?  Are you afraid that doing what you’d like to do will disappoint you? 

Clearly this is such a rich subject!  So many questions involving something that should be so simple, and not just simple, natural.  Isn’t there a kind of atavistic feeling that doing what you like to do is what you should be doing all the time?  Doesn’t it feel like that’s the reason you’re here, and that not doing what you like might prove to be one of your great regrets as you leave this mortal world. 

It’s worth exploring; the what and whys and the hold backs.  A good start might be noticing when you’re doing what you really want to do.  You might be surprised. I think we tend be a bit romantic about what we THINK we want to do.  But that’s another discussion.  

Enough talk.  Go and DO.  

Use this mind map as your guide!
