How to find your purpose?

You don’t need a magic formula.

In fact, you just need answers, like…

• Why did you start this journey?

• What did you hope to learn?

• What did you hope to accomplish?

• What did you hope to gain?

• What’s stopping you now?

• For whom are you doing this?

Let’s get some answers with today’s Baby Step.

BABY STEP

Let’s take a moment right now and re-state the purpose you chose when you started this journey with me.

Do you remember it?

Is it written down?

That’s okay. The details of it are not nearly as important as the mindset behind it.

And even though it seems difficult to put your needs first (#Mom Life), this is the only path to fulfillment.

Lots of people believe their Purpose (capital P) is some grand scheme they are meant to uncover then live out for the rest of their days.

I disagree. I believe the Purpose of life is to simply enjoy it.

What else could it be? Every other aspect of our lives is in a state of perpetual change. And yet, the only constant seems to be how we perceive those changes. Are we happy despite the chaos or are we allowing ourselves to become a part of the chaos?

Hmmm.

So, again, I ask you: “For whom are you doing this?”

Because, ultimately, you must decide your purpose is to do what makes YOU happy.

Today’s Baby Step will get you there little by little by little:

I am doing this for me.

Keep practicing. And over time, that will get easier and easier to say. Then watch your happiness grow.
