The Path
Once you've found your path in life I think it's important to establish anchors and rituals, things that help you stay on the path. Acknowledging that there are cyclical periods of not being on it, only allowing greater perspective and overview.
It is apparent that a few decades ago that was much easier. Although technology serves us well today it also laid bare all the other possibilities. Things we could be, things we're missing out on, goals we haven't achieved yet, skills we haven't started working on. The 21st century brings with it many different forms of distraction, perhaps even inability to focus with the constant bombardment of information.
The anchors and rituals allow for keeping a strong sense of direction. And literally help you anchor yourself to your path. For me it's books, podcasts, breathing drills, meditation, training and talking to like minded people. I used to veer off of the path frequently eventhough I felt I had strong resolution to be on it. The combination of not having cultivated enough self discipline and not having any anchors or rituals made for a lot of back and forth.
Find what anchors and grounds you.
