In this never-ending age of lock-downs and restrictions on where we can go and what we can do, here in Australia we've faired better than most, even though in the southern state of Victoria, they've had to endure more unnecessary lock-downs and mask-wearing more than in the rest of the country. Where I live in Queensland, we've had very little to contend with for the past few months. Yet still, everyone is just so sick and tired of restrictions and not being able to live our normal lives and all the protests and empty supermarket shelves.
Yet prior to any of this happening, I wrote a book called Mission Critical For Life, and this book is all about how having a mission can help you live your own life on your own terms. And it turned out to be perfect for living in this dystopian society we now find ourselves in.
In this book I covered:
1. How having a mission means you can go home and close the door on the rest of the world and work on your mission. I even explained what a mission is and how you can discover your own. This information has been super helpful for so many people over the past year and a half.
2. How simple it is to make sure you have enough money so that you can stay home and not need to come out or go to work for a year or more. Having this financial security can be helpful in so many ways. Not just because you don't have to worry in case you lose your job, but also because it gives you emotional security knowing that when things get too much you can survive for months or years. This also provides self-esteem.
3. Having a mission and being able to turn to it means that you don't need friends. I find socialising emotionally draining and I can only be around other people for short bursts of time, and even then I'm glad to go home and be away from them. And having my mission to escape to, means that I'm not needy of other people's attention.
Mission Critical For Life also dives even deeper than this and shows you exactly how having a mission can improve your life in ways you can't even imagine.
Most people spend their time looking at how to "fill" their time every day after they've finished working at a job they hate.
But having a mission means that you won't have to work at a job you hate or work for a boss you can't stand. And best of all, you won't be running around looking for time-wasting activities, or being needy of other people or wondering how to "fill" your time. Instead you'll be "spending" your time doing something you enjoy.
And if you'd known all this during these past few months when we've all had to stay home more, then you could have been making the most of it by spending your time on your mission.
All those who bought the book faired better during this dark, unusual time in our lives because they were happy to stay home.
The good news is that it's not too late.
You can still get your own copy of Mission Critical For Life.
And once you read it you'll realise how simple it is to find your own mission and start living life on your own terms.
