I believe there are a few steps to take in order to avoid a ‘middle life crisis’.
It all comes down to meaning, it comes down to creating a life that is meaningful - it is about living deeply.
Meaning which comes from feeling real connected to ourselves -it is about being authentic and true to ourselves and welcome all of us.
Meaning that comes from feeling real connected with people -it implies being authentic and honest.
Meaning that comes from doing a job that is meaningful to us, from doing what we love, from doing what brings us joy, from doing a job for other people, from living our calling.
Meaning that comes from connecting with what we truly are, Beingness -it implies letting go of the ego, of what we are not.
This would cause us to find profound peace and connection with All That Is.
