Good Morning Gentlemen,
"Listening to your heart is not simple. Finding out
who you are is not simple. It takes a lot of hard work and
courage to get to know who you are and what you
How does a person find the time, space, inclination and
direction to understand his or her self and unique purpose?
What seems to stop the flow of true, natural, purposeful
action?
Your purpose is your gift to the world. It is a sacred
source for you to connect with and contribute to others at
a deep and powerful level.
I have heard many times from clients in all walks of life,
"Yeah, but how do I do it? How do I live aligned with my
purpose?"
I believe it begins and ends with Courage -- the Courage
to trust your heart, trust your values, and to trust
yourself.
It takes courage to open up, to ask for what you want and
courage to face your truth. Some say it takes courage to
be real and to be authentically You.
So what stops us from being real, from living on purpose?
In my own life it has been fear. The fear of showing
vulnerability. The fear of being judged. The fear of
rejection, fear of failure, fear of being alone, fear of
the unknown, of uncertainty, and in the end, it seems to be
the fear of losing my "life".
I have come to realize (and of course you must arrive at
your own conclusions) that no one, no situation, no
experience, can take away my purpose. Eventually, one way or another I will die. But, in the process of living, I am the one responsible for identifying, connecting to and
living my own purposeful life. A life and a truth that
belongs to this moment only, to this opportunity to live
fully.
