Everyone likes to feel useful. Everyone needs a purpose. Good news: you already have one!
You may not know what your purpose is just yet. Or maybe you have an idea, but it just hasn’t fully taken shape. Perhaps you’ve found your purpose and are already living it—in which case, Congratulations!
Regardless of where you find yourself, the truth is, you have a purpose. And when you uncover it, you’ll be able to live on purpose.
In his book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, Stephen Covey said
What truly matters most to you in life? What do you want to be, to do? It’s never too late to examine this, and what you discover is a direct portal into your values.
This clearly points to your purpose and the benefits you’ll have when you are living it!
But just because you have a purpose doesn’t mean you’ll suddenly be thrust into the limelight or made to change professions. It’s not necessarily like that. Your purpose may be public—meaning you agreed to do something that puts you in front of others—but your purpose may also be simply to hold peaceful energy for the planet—for example, by gardening in your back yard.
Your purpose may become your paid profession, or it may be something you practice in your spare time, or it may be something you do in the background in all aspects of life, like Being something— Peaceful; Loving; Compassionate.
The one thing that seems to be common among Purposes—the lasting ones, the ones that keep calling you back—is the element of helping or serving others in some capacity or another. Another thing Purposes seem to have in common is that when you’re engaged in yours, you’re likely to be more present and in the moment.
And best of all, your Purpose is something that you will absolutely LOVE doing!
In this episode, Tommy & David help you to remember the importance of having a purpose, and guide you through a process to uncover the one already within.
