Do you feel like your life might not be going in the right direction? Maybe you could taken a different path and now your questioning yourself? There are signs that God and the universe like to give you to let you know that you are headed in the right direction. Here are 5 ways to tell if you are on the right path.

1. You keep seeing what you want everywhere
It’s sometimes crazy and sometimes just annoying but have you ever noticed that when you really, really want something or something is on your mind a lot, you tend to see if everywhere? If you want a relationship, you see couples everywhere you go.  If you buy a new car, suddenly everyone has that car. When you want to take a trip to Hawaii, all of a sudden you seen Hawaiian stuff everywhere!

2. Good things happen often
And not just any good things, but weird, random good things that couldn’t be a coincidence. Like when you were talking about your crush and he texts you. Or when you are trying to save money and someone offers to buy you lunch. Or how about that time when you were craving shrimp tacos all day and then you went to a friends house and they were making shrimp tacos! When things like that happen all the time for no real reason, you know you are on the right path.

3. People tell you
Sometimes we miss this or overlook it, but have you ever had a random old lady tell you how talented, kind or amazing you are? Maybe you should listen, especially if you hear the same thing from multiple people. Maybe they are saying you are a good writer? A good musician? Maybe people always say how good you are with kids or how funny you are.

Whatever people compliment you on, listen to them. If you hear the same compliment over and over, well chances are that is true about you. If it’s something that you enjoy or like about yourself, then you are probably on the right path.

4. You get closer to your goals each day
Even though it might not feel like you are making big steps, a small step in the right direction each day is a step closer to you goal. If you want to lose weight, every healthy food you eat and exercise you do gets you one step closer to your goal. If you want to be a good parent, every time you make a mistake and learn from it, you are getting better.

It might not feel like you are getting as close as quickly as you want to or should, but as long as you are moving forward, that is what really matters.

5. It feels like you are
Deep down, you can tell if you are on the right path or not. You know yourself better than you think. What are your heart’s desires and how close to getting them are you? Are you getting a tiny step closer each day? Does what you’re doing each day feel good? Are you grateful and finding joy your life right now no matter where on your path you are?

There is a process for everything and being on the right path is going to look lots of different ways at different times in your life. Sometimes you are on the right path even if something really bad happened. It might be something that you needed to happen so that you can end up somewhere better.

Listen to yourself, listen to the universe and listen to God.
