life help: I feel hopeless. - Help.com



This post left anonymously

I feel hopeless.

I want to be the best I can be in my life, but I’m not sure how to make decisions. Should I release myself into the will of God/the universe and just let things happen, or should I consciously decide to do things, too? Do I even need to worry about this? How do I know that I’m doing what I should be doing? I just feel completely negative and incapable of even deciding what to do right now, as I sit here in my house.

Make your own decisions, your destiny is under your control and you have to take control of it to build your future coz if you dont then someone else will. and you wont like that. take decisions that fells right to you, do stuff you like and hang out with friends and cheer up. hope i could help.

**Should I release myself into the will of God/the universe and just let things happen, or should I consciously decide to do things, too?**

I guess I don’t see those as mutually exclusive. The YOUniverse that God has created just for you includes your will, your power of reasoning, and that little voice in your heart that knows what you really want to do.

I say plan to achieve what you wish to achieve with the resources the universe puts at your disposal, but be flexible and ready to accept that God’s plan always ends up better than anything we can dream up on our own!
