The future....
Recently I have been putting a lot of thought into my future and what I want to achieve. Whether that be next year or in five years, I have a pretty strong idea of what I want to do. So I have planned out exactly what I want to do as a carer, the places i want to travel to and where I want to go to university etc. Now this may sound like I'm in an ideal situation, but trust me I'm not. I may sound really organised, but I couldn't be more unprepared.
Right, so seeing as I have no idea what could happen tomorrow, I certainly have no idea what could happen in a few months time either. Virtually anything could unexpectedly prop up in my life, which could affect any one of my plans. So this means that a part/all my future plans could go down the drain. This will then leave me not knowing what I'm meant to do with my life.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, don't stay focused on one life plan because it will leave you devastated if that doesn't go ahead. Try to be more open minded with your future and take the most of any opportunity thrown your way because it could really give you an advantage in the future. Of course I'm not saying don't think about your future and plan it at all. But what i want to stress is that life may not take you where you want to be, so think of various life choices rather than a solid straight path.
Last year, GCSE results day didn't go exactly how I wanted and it left me feeling really unmotivated and stressed out. Now if i had been given this advise to be more open minded with my future, it wouldn't have affected me nearly as much as it did. I wish I had thought of a plan with various paths rather than one straight one.
The best advice I can give from this is that take each day as it comes and let the future plan itself with your daily choices.
