How To Find Your Next "Right Move"

The next "right move" is something we are constantly thinking about, and trying to obtain.

In all of our life stages, we are searching for the next step to lead us to our next great relationship, or the next great job that we can find in life.

No matter what we are going through, or the situation, each of us have that point in our lives that we don't know what to do next.

Here's my advice: get up and take action, because nobody is going to get up and live your life for you! Most people nowadays feel entitled and sit around whining about how they need a new job, or how they're not happy in their relationship. Somehow, they think complaining will make everything better.

I promise you, just sitting around talking about your next idea or what you "know you need to do" will never get you to the point you need to in life. Self pity is a dead end road. Life doesn't follow a set of rules or have any kind of pity for you. You have to work hard to set your path.

So make that challenging choice, the one that scares you the most. Choose the one that will shake up your life and make you do roller coaster spins when you stay awake at night thinking about it. Challenging our conscious mind to accept reality, embrace change and the unpredictability of life, is one step in finding the next "right move" in your life.

The hardest part for most people in making this move is figuring out what they love and truly want in life. Listen more to what you want, and less of what the world wants from you. Before anybody can believe in you making the right move, you have to believe in yourself and know who you are: you are the only version of you in this entire world and that is your power.

Making an important decision or choice in your life can be overwhelming, so sometimes we choose to do nothing--and we become paralyzed rather than being liberated by having the power of choice. So instead of making the hard choice, it's easier for us to just drift along, hoping that life takes us down the right path.

If you aren't happy with how your life is going, don't stay stuck: do better.

Having a life vision, and knowing what path you want your life to go down is key in building the foundations to building belief in yourself.

There will be times where you won't know what to do next, or might you make the wrong decision, and that's okay. You can seize these wrong decision as an opportunity to experience life and you are empowered to make another choice--hopefully the next "right move".

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
