You have seen all the games. You have been there every second since a puck has dropped on the ice. You watched every move, praised every goal, and protested every penalty. You’re living these same emotions together with other nationals of your country. Then it happens! Your country is the new World Champion! This euphory of a win takes over every cell in your body, turning you into a beast roaring voice of the victory. You were part of this achievement; of course, you were because you stood there cheering every step of this journey. The following morning, your head feels twice the size, and yesterday’s hype gradually fades away. Returning to your daily routines and work feels tacky, and there is nothing to fill out this empty hole that has started to grow inside you. There is a sleeping desire inside every one of us, and you need to wake it up to feel the bliss of your success.

Define a clear goal

The Finnish Men’s National Ice Hockey Team had one goal: to win the World Championship, and they did it. The motivation behind each individual team member is always unique. However, training, diet, and daily routines have been carefully planned to support this same goal.

Perhaps the hunger of Finnish players was even bigger this time. The entire world was watching these games through different glasses than ever before. The need to show on home ice and bring hope to these surrounding circumstances must have been high. The Finnish Team succeeded well in their mission. Despite this cruelty that we’re all sensing around us, the good spirit won yesterday.

When you have a destination, you know where to go, and you can plan your steps to support that vision. In contrast, you’re drifting around in the endless sea when you don’t know what you want to do, killing your precious time and arriving at a random destination.

Find the Passion Inside You

I admire people chasing their dreams as their entire appearance is shining most genuinely when they tell you about what they do in their lives. It’s more painful to follow your whole life seeing everyone else doing what they love than experiencing the temporary pain of changing your life. If you feel stuck and struggling in your own life, there is no other possibility for happiness than to figure out what you truly want.

When I started my self-development journey, I became overwhelmed with all the new information and possibilities that opened up before me. However, gradually when I tried new things, I found my way back to writing and art. My sleeping creativity was born into its glory when I concentrated on building my talent in these areas.

Your life doesn’t need to happen to you; you have the power to make your happiness. We all are talented at something, and though we can learn to do anything, the most genuine passion can be found by following your heart. Either you know that you have it and haven’t taken action yet, or you don’t see what you want to do. When you start searching, I promise you will find your way.

The Best Time to Start is Now

We’re hiding behind excuses for not taking action with something meaningful in our lives. Most of us fear failure and what other people think. When you get over yourself and get angry at all those excuses that have kept you stagnated, you can start building your new future. No matter what you did or how well you did it, there are always people who don’t like you. You need to tell yourself, ‘Fuck it!’ and start to live a life that truly feels like your own.

You don’t know about tomorrow, but you have this moment. If I held your hand next to your death bed, asking, did you accomplish your dreams? What would your heart answer to me? You can find your purpose through profound self-search. Stop watching people around you, and start making your dreams come true.

With love,
