I feel like life is pointless. How can I find meaning in my life?

At times, life can lose purpose and become pointless. This is especially true with depression in my experience. Finding that purpose is not easy. Reaching out to loved ones, and talking it through can help a great deal.

Life is pointless, we are here in this world because of pure luck/accident. So, we can be anything we want. Of course, because we live in society, there are rules to follow and duty to undergo. If you make sure of following the rules (not hurting other people, etc.), if you look at what you like in life, you can have an idea of what you want to do and how to get there. What you want to do will be your goal and purpose. How to get there will become your actions and that's how you'll be able to find meaning in your life: pursuing things you like to do/achieve.

Please don't hurt yourself. Is there a family member or friend who cares about you? What do you or used to enjoy? What productive things do you do? Perhaps look into some spiritual and or religious service. Perhaps attend a religious service. Volunteer. Go out into the community. Do you have a pet or child? You're breathing and your heart is beating. That is your purpose. Do you have and goals or dreams? What would you say to a friend if they had your issue? Go into nature. Breathe fresh air. Exercise. Smile. Don't give up. You're here for a reason.

At some point in everyone's life, we feel this way. You are not alone. Find a passion to occupy your mind/time. This can be meditating, music, sports, or even writing. Finding a passion can really change your state of mind.

There is so much meaning in every life- we just have to find it! For some people it's easy- they find something they love to do with no problem at all. But others need to experiment with different things, you'll eventually find something you're passionate about and that's where the meaning lies!

Lets see if i can answer this question well Life is pointless it is up to you to give it a point ...... that can be a huge thing like curing cancer or something small like reading all you can ....... you can stick to a point for years or months or devote your life to it .... the meaning you find in life is the meaning you give it

Life is full of challenging mountains to climb. The world is full of peer pressure and stressful situations from society to live inside this box of working 40 hours a week to pay bills. These responsibilities can make anyone feels pointless when struggling to find meaning. There is so much more to life my friend! People say we only live once in life, but that is so far from the truth. We live every day of our lives and only die once. The next morning when the sun rises is a chance to make a new beginning! The willpower to start the next chapter is just three words away, “I want more!” A switch to see the world in a whole new light is inside of you. Humans often put their dreams off to the next day, but it’s never guaranteed. Dreams are meant to be chased every day with the passion that burns in our hearts. It takes a little urge to fight for change to kindle the bonfire of desire in us. Your soul is beautiful is going to set the world on fire one day! Take the small step to the rest of your life and want a little more today!

Try to look for something that makes youse happy as a person and stop thinking about others and just think about yerself for once

As humans we are social beings, meaning that a huge part of our lives involves other people. To find purpose in life, we should work to love and grow ourselves, but even more importantly than that, we should find something greater and outside ourselves to focus on. Show your friends and family that you care for them, or involve yourself in a job or form of community. Even if you don't naturally feel like a "team player," try to find the people you click with and a mission higher than yourself. Start off by identifying your passions or interests and expand on that. For example, if you like writing, try to write on your own, but take it a step further. Ask yourself, "How can I take this to the next level and serve something greater than myself?" Maybe your friend could use some help writing her essay, maybe there's a writing club at school, or maybe you could submit things online or the newspaper.

Find things that draw most attention to you. Find something that makes you feel good. For example i found that helping others, gave me a purpose and a meaning to this life. Its also one of the reasons i joined 7cups as a listener.

Trying to start with the little things, searching for hobbies, friends and/or relationships, the higher you climb, the harder you fall so finding a balance that brings you happiness should do the thing

Think of a time when you were the happiest you ever were. I know it might be very difficult, but just think hard. Now use that as motivation to find meaning and live for that happy moment.

Sometimes the purpose or meaning of life is to be happy and contented with who you are and to live without judgement and prejudice.

The true meaning of life is all written in the holy Bible. Read and understand it and you will understand the meaning of life

maybe asking myself why I am here? and start to write down my hobbies my strength based to my child or adult experience I gained from other or that I have by born and start think what I have now and What I want to be in my dream and start to have my plan and break it down one by one so that I have purpose that makes meaning to my life and to know why I'm pointless these days

life comes with many struggles, that is true. it may seem pointless, and in many ways. but you have to look past that, and see that there is more to life. there is so much to see, so much to expierence. sure life seems a little tough right now but whos to say it wont get better? you just have to look past all the bad.. and see the good

Try looking for the good in life, not the bad. There will always be struggles but at the end of those struggles, there is a finish line.

Try finding new things that'll give you motivation to go onto the next day. Find something to look forward to every day. Even if it's just little things like taking walks or playing with your sibling(s).

Volunteer your time to a cause you feel passionate about. Giving back to others is an excellent way to find meaning and purpose in your life.

First of all: Your Life is not pointless! You matter and you’re loved! Try out new things to motivate yourself. It can be just like drinking an self made smoothie every day. Because that will keep you on the road. Or do sports. Try to workout. Or simply call a friend and watch films and do a beauty night when you’re a girl! When you’re a boy you can do a mask as well. Girls and boys are equal and to be honest, everybody loves the feeling after a Mask! Or simply do that alone and don’t care about what anybody thinks about you for some hours! Go dog walking or babysitting. Ask your neighbor if you could help them with something. You’re loved! And you have to believe that!

Setup goals in your life. Your goal could be making a difference in someone's life, becoming a better person, working hard towards your first million dollar, etc etc. Look for what you like and extract goals accordingly.

Life does not have any meaning, it’s you as an individual that creates the meaning to life depending on your perception or how you choose to live the life that has been given to you to experience.

The meaning of life can be found in the relationship you form with others and yourself. If someone makes you happy, then make them happier. Same for yourself, do things that make you happy.

Everyone has their own journey in life and finding the meaning of your own is a difficult task. First, ask yourself what is it that you are specifically looking for. What is the void you are trying to fill. Some people find the meaning of life in friends, family, employment and other things they accomplish. Others feel a more spiritual meaning in their existence. No matter your meaning as a whole, know you make a difference to those you love and who love you. Sometimes, love is just as big as a legacy. Good luck in your journey!

Life is innately pointless, that's why you have to find your own. Trial and error my friend. Find something that works for you, whether it's helping people, understanding yourself, or helping the planet, and follow through.

1) Dream about something you really need or want. (ex.get into a relationship) 2) Set a strategic (long-term) goal. (ex. To marry the one) 3) set short term goals.(ex. Get fit, read books about relationships &love..etc) 4) Monitor and follow your achievements. 5) once you achieve it, dream again and repeat the cycle.

Finding meaning in your life can be done if you try to think about things that matter to you, things that you wouldn't give up on your life for. That's when you find the meaning of your life. It can be different things. Sometimes is as simple as just being you. But that means that you live your life as yourself and that you don't give up until you've achieved something that makes you feel happy and satisfied. It can be the smallest thing. The greatness doesn't matter really. What matters is you. You are the meaning of your life.

Find and do the things or activities that makes you smile, laugh and makes you feel good. Something that you look forward to doing the next morning and the next day, and the day after. Find those activities that resonates with your soul.
