What gives you direction in life?

When I face a tough decision or need direction, I first turn to my inner self. I’m no meditation guru or spiritual master, but after five decades of life, I’ve built a rich tapestry of experiencessome joyful, others painful. These memories serve as my guide, helping me navigate choices with clarity. Next, I consult my inner circle: my wife and son. Their perspectives often challenge my own, offering fresh angles I hadn’t considered. Do I always follow their advice? Not entirely. I cherry-pick what resonates, blending their insights with my own to craft a balanced decision. Living in a family means decisions ripple outward, affecting everyone. Compromise isn’t just a strategyit’s a necessity for harmony.

Activities or hobbies you’ve outgrown or lost interest over time

The list of activities and hobbies I’ve outgrownor simply lost interest inwould be a long one. I have a habit of diving into new tasks with enthusiasm, trying them out for a few days, and then dropping them the moment they start to feel dull. Before you judge me, let me explain. The sales pitch for these activities always sounds thrilling, promising excitement, fulfillment, or even hidden talents waiting to be unlocked. And I fall for itevery single time. But after a few attempts, the reality rarely lives up to the hype. The excitement fades, the novelty wears off, and I move on. Thankfully, I don’t apply this habit to my relationships with peoplethere, I’m much more intentional. But I digress.
