I feel like I am stuck in a rut and a hamster wheel. What do I need to do to make myself happy and more in line with my purpose in life?
Ah, the classic “hamster wheel” feeling—going round and round, seeing the same scenery, and making no progress. Here’s the truth: feeling stuck isn’t because life is against you; it’s because, deep down, you're avoiding a little discomfort for the sake of a comfortable, predictable rut. And that’s understandable. But here’s the thing: true happiness and purpose are rarely found within our comfort zones.
So, let’s start changing things. First, ask yourself: What am I avoiding? Are you stuck in a job you secretly dislike? Spending time with people who drain you? Holding onto habits that don’t benefit you? Be honest in identifying what’s draining your energy, because that’s what’s keeping you stuck.
Once you’ve identified a few things that bother you, guess what? It’s time to face them, not avoid them. Start small if you need to, but do something new that moves you toward the version of yourself you want to be. Pick a goal that excites you—maybe it’s learning something you’ve always been interested in, or starting a passion project that lets you express your creativity. And if you don’t know what that is yet, great! Make it your mission to find it, and let that search help you break out of the rut.
Also, ask yourself: what legacy do you want to leave, even in small ways? Purpose isn’t just a big, mystical mission statement. It’s built, day by day, with small, meaningful actions. Define one value that truly matters to you and move in that direction.
Here’s your bottom line: happiness will require some uncomfortable changes, but the payoff? Feeling alive. So, are you ready to stop being the hamster and start running free?
