I want to have meaning in life

If you want to have meaning to life, then you must take meaning from life.

Try immediately, after reading this, to consider the moment you're in. Think about nothing but what your senses tell you, stop listening to your mind if it isn't present in the moment. Practice getting to that place in your mind where you're aware, present, and concerned with your surrounding.

The point of this is to become more proactive about your immediate situation, in each situation you find yourself in. How?

By trying to always be present, or at least become present, and opening up your senses, you will be more in tune with your environment. You will begin to stop alienating yourself from experiences and once you stop alienating yourself from experiences, you can start affecting your reality. Why?

The reason why you do this is to start getting what you want and to stop waiting for what you want. There's simple things that you already do this for, like being too cold, or being too hungry. They're typically things we can't avoid experiencing, and wanting to correct immediately. So, we just do it. We affect our reality to get what we want.

You practice putting yourself into the moment, practice using all the input to find things you want, then practice getting what you want.

Before this mindset evolves, what you experience the most is your mind's pragmatism. You consider different things, like "what if I embarrass myself? What if she doesn't like me? What if, what if, what if?"

What if you didn't think about any of that shit at all? What if all you were thinking when you walk up to a pretty girl is, "This breeze is so nice, and the sun on my face, and is that her perfume I smell?" Then you just stroll over there and say what you want, do what you want, and enjoy your life.

Take meaning from life. No one is going to give meaning to you.

If you arent out for validation or approval, i must ask....why are you posting this message...in this exact subreddit? this is awfully contradictory to the validation you are not seeking. what exactly is the context of the message you are trying to get across here?

First of all.. the more you think about this urge of getting in a relationship with someone the more you'll suffer on a daily basis and you'll just be sad because its not happening and when you finally meet a possible partner you will rush into a relationship too fast and you will just not pay attention to any red flag even if the girl has lots of them and that relationship will be worse than being single. My advice: Its wrong to set your life goal to get in a relationship.. what is best to do is find something you enjoy doing like gym , dancing, any other sport and focus on that ( my advice is to pick gym because it will make you look better and it builds a tone of confidence). So just focus on whatever your passion is and at some point you will meet a girl youre gonna like and you will be able to have a healthy relationship with her. I was in the same boat with you.. picked gym and kyokushin karate.. best decision of my life Good luck bud

Wow I feel the very exact same as you. 21 here though but everything else is just about the same. Don't need a girlfriend to be happy, but would sure be nice to feel some intimacy, and seeing as how I've yet to experience it yet, I'm starting to question if I ever will.

You want contact with the feminine, maybe a way to start could be getting in touch with the feminine side of yourself. Do something which calls for emotional literacy, connection, creativity and a little wildness.
