• (1 vote) Hi, I’m having trouble setting my life straight.
  

  You’re doing good to recognize that same routine has become monotonous. It is perfectly natural for your motivations to change. Asking yourself to enjoy a predictive routine is no less than being a grumpy-stubborn-old-fart set his his/her ways. You obviously enjoy the fresh feeling of a new day and need something to keep you looking forward.
  
  When I found myself in the same doldrums as you, I picked up a lot of new things. I didn’t expect to enjoy them, I expected find out if they were my thing. I promised myself to do something new and give it full opportunity to become a hobby and interest. If an activity turned out to be lame, I ditched it and moved on. Five years later I know I enjoy golf, skydiving, camping, learning music (piano), swimming, running, dating, and traveling. Each of these activities lead me to new people and new experiences which improved either a physical skill or a social skill but were mentally engaging nonetheless. Extremely engaging, I should say. Try something. When you know it’s not your thing, move on to something else. No harm, no foul. It’s the movement in any direction that you seek. Your interests and personality will guide you.
  
  You’re on a good path. Perhaps you’re not really looking to set your life straight.. perhaps it’s the meandering that keeps your mind thinking and your spirits soaring. Best Wishes. -L

  You have plenty of time to screw up; don’t be in a hurry to turn bad. There’s nothing wrong with being a decent person for as long as you can. Happy Birthday!!
