You Have a #Purpose in #Life? Can You Find It?

#Purposeful living is being vulnerable. It’s being open to criticism from others but confident in your gifts. It’s having a mindset of being OK with not being a part of the crowd because you understand that you were created to be set apart for the universe.

It’s the selfless understanding that your life was never yours, to begin with, but it’s a life used to be a vessel to help others. It’s not pursuing a life full of wealth but pursuing a universe full of wisdom. When you’re meandering through life without cause you’re solely existing – not living.  Sincerely living makes all the trouble worth it.  You have reason to wake up and move forward with your day.  Reason outside of surviving, that is.  Heading to a place you work wholly to make money is surviving.  Loving what you do and doing it because you love it is what I consider “living.”

When you’re trying to find your purpose outside of work, no one is paying you for it. No one is promoting you. Nobody is bringing you into their intimidating office for performance reviews every few months.

That’s why it’s hard. That’s why it’s so difficult to find a purpose outside of your career. No one is telling us if we’re doing it right or wrong. No one is showing us the ropes. There’s no training program for finding your purpose. There’s no ladder to climb up. You don’t go straight up or straight down. You move in zigzags, with no one there along the way to say that you’re doing great, or you need to work on this, or you’ll get promoted once you accomplish that.

Finding your #purpose is up to you, and that’s why it’s terrifying. Do not stress yourself out by convincing yourself that finding your purpose is just one more thing on your never-ending to-do list. Because here’s the surprisingly freeing news: finding your #purpose does not have an endgame. It’s continuous. It’s always happening to you. You are always going to be finding your purpose and you’re never going to stop.

You can’t find the #purpose and meaning I’m incessantly referring to until you step outside yourself.  For me, it took (still is taking) a serious search within myself.  I evaluated my past, my mistakes, what made me cause them and what I can do differently.  Now I love helping others. Helping others makes me feel good about myself, but that’s exactly what brings me contentment and keeps me on a straight path.  My clear #mind and love for service are in part what led me to translate the real meaning of my aspirations.  I don’t just want to be famous.  I aspire to  have a talk show on television,  knowing that show could potentially be someone’s favorite part of the day.  I aim to write things which may inspire thought, change perspectives or simply entertain, I aspire to share the same stage with Mel Robbins, Lisa Nichols among others.  I can finally acknowledge these goals as my real purpose.  In regards to my childhood abuse living my purpose is to help other women/girls live a meaningful life without clinging to their past, learning to embrace those scars of their past.  Outside of the program I simply want to bring joy.  I have to be somewhat self-seeking, but I absolutely must consider others far more than myself.

I know you may be scared, but you have a purpose and you matter so don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Believe in yourself with all you’ve got and you’ll prove to yourself just how much you truly matter in this world.

No longer will I let years pass wondering “what if.” No longer will I allow another idea to grace my brain without entertaining the possibility of making it a reality. No longer will I allow another a moment to pass without encouraging those around me. Dive deep every day and discover a part of you that makes you live fully once the "career" you have comes to an end!
