Self-fulfillment is an inside job which gives us the fuel, the energy to continue pursuing our purpose despite all the setbacks. We naturally do not feel self-fulfilled when we constantly try to push things to make it happen or when we are on a job or a career that we don’t feel inspired by but do it anyway because we do not dare to leave our comfort zone isn’t it?
What’s the purpose of living on this planet after all? Eat, sleep, get shit done and repeat?
To find your unique purpose and sharing your gifts with the world by making a living from it is what we all are born to experience but the question is how many of us are even aware that we are not here just doing stuff but also to reflect and find our purpose to elevate the world’s consciousness in our own way and in our own time. Unfortunately, not many of us.
When we start to own our power as a human being and realize that we are not here by a coincidence instead we are here in this lifetime on purpose, the whole game begins to shift.
What is that secret sauce for staying on the track of pursuing a purposeful life?
1. “Pursuing a purposeful life”starts with figuring out “why” we are here in this lifetime and this is a journey and not definitely an overnight success. As our purpose and the way we serve others will evolve in the extent we grow as a human being, what we align ourselves with will definitely shape this journey as we call life.
2. “No attachment” to the outcome and knowing that as long as we have the full faith that whatever happens in our journey is what we need at that moment to grow, we can only go forward from that place. In other words, having the full faith in the universe that we are always divinely guided will eventually take all the pressure from us to constantly think about the “how” because the “how” will reveal itself when we are ready.
3. “Enjoy life”. It is as easyas it sounds. Pursuing a purposeful life does not mean we are supposed to be very serious and always be on alert. The more we enjoy this journey and everything that makes us grow,the better it will always be.
Living a life led by desire is our birth right, it is what we are meant to experience as humans, it is definitely not a luxury.
What was the reason that made you wake up in the morning and how motivated are you to deepen the meaning of your existence?
