Drifting can happen to anyone. It’s not just a problem for young people; it happens to people of all ages and career levels.
Drifting happens for many reasons. Some people are unaware of what’s going on in their life or what is at stake, they’re distracted by a hobby or career, overwhelmed with responsibilities and commitments, or deceived by their own minds.
