Thursday Motivation
What is this life all about? Why are we here?
As kids, we just want to play and have fun. As teens, we want to be popular and “included”. As young adults, we stress ourselves out trying to find the right career path. As we move closer to our 30’s, we strive to be knowledgable at what we do, and use that to pursue our career.
At some point in this time, we achieve knowledge and greatness in our work and we wonder what it is all for. Why am I doing this? What’s my PURPOSE?
Purpose is not necessarily your passion. Purpose is about your calling; why you’re in this world.
-What doesn’t happen if you don’t do it?
-What special gifts do you bring to your village?
-What do others look for in you?
I believe we are called to give our gift to others. Your purpose is to share your talents with others. Ultimately, you find being compassionate to others with your gift answers the call of “Why am I here?”
We want to be happy, and happiness I believe happiness is found in giving. Not money, but yourself.
A teacher is always teaching.
A pastor is always shepherding his flock.
A firefighter is always protecting his community.
Does your daily interaction with others fulfill your purpose?
Look at your day today. Are you getting enough opportunities to live out your purpose? Successful people do because they make their purpose a priority. Find ways to live out your purpose with each person you interact with today.
If you’re stuck and don’t know your purpose, don’t worry, it takes time. If you want to brainstorm or talk to someone, I am here to listen. My purpose is to help others, so, let me help you!
