Discovering Life's Purpose

Have you ever played that game where you connect the dots? Once you finish you are able to see the outline of some figure. Sometimes it’s an animal or building or person or even a flower. For the most part you never truly know what it is until all the dots are connected. Well discovering your life purpose is similar to that experience with the dots.

We go through life working various jobs, experiencing different events, meeting a variety of people, suffering, enjoying, and just living life. Sometimes it takes a combination of all these different events, people, and experiences in order that we might understand or realize our purpose. In other words we have to connect the dots of life to see the full picture.

There are those rare individuals that come into this life already knowing what their life’s purpose. This happens at an early age, and it can be as early as two or three years old. They just begin t walk into their purpose and begin fulfilling their destiny. There’s just something that they love to do at any early age. It gives them enthusiasm and passion and excitement from childhood and it carries them on through life. They immediately begin to position themselves for their purpose.
So they were able to cheat the dot game. They could see what was going to be formed before the dots were connected. They knew the path that was to be taken and begin to fulfill their assignment.

You see our steps have been ordered and sometimes it takes a life time to see where we are headed and sometimes it’s so apparent right from birth. Why is this? Well this is how we fit into the grand scheme of things. Your journey to find your purpose may just light a fire under someone else and get them going to find their purpose and it can have a domino effect. You just never know who is going to be changed and motivated by your words and actions or who you are going to change and motivate while you are on life’s journey. There is no happenstance or coincidence, in fact everything lines up just the way it should.

During life’s journey to find your purpose you should ask some questions. Is this the place that makes me the happiest? Is this the place where I can have the biggest impact on humanity? (not necessarily). Is this the place where I will be able to utilize my talent and ability to their full extent? Does this get me excited, enthusiastic, focused, and charistmatic? Am I passionate about this venture? Would I do this for free? Do I just love to do this? Do I come alive when given my opportunity to pursue this venture? Does it line up with my values? Chances are it’s your purpose if you answered yes to all of these questions, or most of them.

After you discover your purpose then you begin to attract more of the following into your life:

• more success
• more balance
• more money
• more time off
• better relations
Have you discovered your life’s purpose?
