j0439318What is purpose?  This is the time of year when many of us ponder “what is our purpose?”  We look at where we are this year as compared to last and find that much of what we didn’t want is still here and much of what we said we wanted is still not present.  Could it be that we think we’re doing one thing and discover we’re just continuing old habits expecting different results?

Dictionary.com defines purpose thusly,

1.       the reason for which something exists or is done, made, used, etc.
2. an intended or desired result; end; aim; goal.
3. determination; resoluteness.
4. the subject in hand; the point at issue.
5. practical result, effect, or advantage: to act to good purpose.

We started our 45 Day Challenge with the question “who are you really”.  Why are you here, what have you done this year that added value for you and others and what will you do differently next year?  Using the definitions above, or make your own, determine how you’re doing on this challenge and in unveiling your purpose.

Day 43 do always as much as you can, in the way you can, in order to leave your community more beautiful and beneficial than you inherited it.

Part II

You’re no longer the person in charge or the go to person in your workplace; so the challenge now becomes, who am I really? It’s okay to be undecided about what you want out of life or who you’re becoming.  There are many ways of unleashing your authentic self and allowing your passion and purpose to unfold.

Looking deep into you heart is one of the primary steps for allowing your passion and purpose to surface.  This might be difficult for you if you are a logical person who lives by what you think you should be or by what others like you to be. The allowing process is the perfect time to listen to your heart. Your heart’s desire comes from the soft inner voice of your authentic self; the real you.

Listening to your heart allows you to hear your authentic self. You know it’s your heart talking because it feels right. Your heart’s desire is usually what you love to do.  This represents your passion. Doing things with passion and purpose is fun and is accomplished easily and effortlessly.

You’re infused with joy as you do things that are your passion.  This doesn’t mean that you want have difficulties, curves, detours and obstacles.  These “hiccups” make it more challenging, but don’t be stopped by them.  There may be barriers to try and prevent you from reaching your goal.  Think of this as a test because your heart’s desire will find ways to overcome these barriers.   Remember this: the universe supports people who are embracing their passion and those who are following their destiny.

How does it feel to live passionately?
