Everyone has a purpose in life, and within that purpose lays a unique talent just waiting to be expressed and shared with the world. If you’ve ever witnessed someone living their life’s purpose, it’s inspiring to see—they exude happiness. Having the same experience for yourself is pure bliss. If you haven’t found your purpose, that’s okay, you will.
What is purpose? Purpose defined is the reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists. Why live your life with purpose? The most basic question everyone faces in life is Why am I here? What is my purpose? Self-help books suggest that people should look within, at their own desires and dreams. This course will take you step by step, day by day, through the process of figuring out what, exactly, it is you're meant to do.
Some people have a clear vision of their purpose early on in life—it’s as if the path was laid out for them and they simply had to take the first step. For others, the vision is unclear and the path elusive. Even those who seem to know the way have, at one time or another, asked themselves the same question you ask yourself: Is this the life I was meant to live?
I’m one of those people whose stepping-stones have been elusive. I’ve spent years searching for the answer to what makes me happy. As a result, I began to recognize and appreciate a specific set of core concepts for expanding potential and moving into alignment with my purpose. I found these concepts to be quite impactful and I still put them into practice today. I now share them with you in this program, with the hope that they can help you navigate your path.
Are you so busy that you “don’t have time” for the things you long to do? Does your day begin with alarm, snooze, alarm, shower, dress, run-out-the-door-no-time-for-breakfast?
Now, imagine a life where you get up, make your favorite beverage and enjoy your daily quiet time before you shower and get ready for the rest of your day.
Did you just breathe a little sigh? That’s the feeling you can have every day and all you have to do is becoming intentional about living a life of purpose.
In today’s busy world full of distractions and a race or more and more material wealth, we often find that something is missing. No matter how hard we work, how much money we have in the bank, how big our house is, and how fancy of a car we drive, it never quite seems to be enough. That’s because we’re busy chasing the wrong things and focusing on the wrong stuff to live a happy and fulfilled life.
Living Life With Purpose is about helping you step out of this way of life and embracing one that will bring you happiness and fulfillment. Does this mean that you have to give up your secure job with health benefits and your cozy home? Of course not. Instead it’s about making small changes and shifts in both perception and action to bring more meaning to your life. Think of it as a short guide to help you figure out what it means to life more intentionally and then figure out what specifically this means for you.
Along the way I’ll help you think about what you value, what’s working right now and what isn’t. There will be plenty of opportunity for reflection and of course chances to make changes in how you live your life. While there is no magic pill, there are plenty of simple tweaks and changes you can make that will improve your quality of life and that of those around you.
While we will mainly focus on you throughout this challenge, you don’t live in a bubble. The changes you make by living more intentional, no matter how subtle they may be, will influence the people around you and close to you. My hope is that it will have a positive impact on your relationship with loved ones.
Above all, I encourage you to use this challenge to change your own life for the better. Use it to make you think about living with more purpose. Use it to look at what you do in all areas of your life with fresh eyes. Use it to live your life to the fullest and make every minute count. There is nothing better or more important than a life lived well.
In the long run, I’d like to use this challenge to encourage you to try and then continue to implement and keep using these things and ideas that help you live a more meaningful and fulfilled life.
