Know your role

Life avails roles to people. These are our various abilities, coupled with the opportunities to use them. How we come to know our roles in life depends on individual curiosity. You are not born with full knowledge of the abilities you have; a curious mind explores life and discovers them.

Hopelessness, frustration and dissatisfaction with the life you are living; these are signs of a person who has not identified his or her role in life. When you know your role in life, living makes sense because of clarity, and the loads become enjoyable to carry.

To find out your own role in life, you need to be curious enough to explore your being. Find out what it is that makes you happy, discover the skills you currently possess, know the skills you are happy to acquire and then identify how you can use them to achieve something in life.

You also need to be willing to try new things. Keep an open mind and look for opportunities. With each new skill you acquire and each ability you unlock, new opportunities are availed to you.
