Your Purpose

January 5th, 2007

We just did a radio show about finding your purpose. It was wonderful because it reminded me that finding and living my purpose is really simple: When I am feeling great, when I am taking action that makes me feel good, when I reach for a higher feeling thought that makes me feel good–then I am fulfilling my purpose.

Oftentimes in my life I have struggled and thought that the struggle would get me somewhere. Like I had to resist certain things in order to get what I want. Well the answer is a lot different than I thought. The struggles in life are the things that I do that make me feel bad. The actions that I take that make me feel uncomfortable. Like smoking. I was a big smoker back in the day, and it took a long time to quit….like years. It was a struggle and yet I never realized that all I had to do was to stop smoking!

I know it sounds too simple. And yet it really is that simple. Stop doing the things that make you feel bad. When your spouse, co-worker, friend or family member says something or does something that you dont agree with–you don’t have to fight back. Just let it go over your head. It’s their stuff after all. It’s their point of view that they are talking out loud. You don’t have to take it on board. Let it go.

Your job  and my job in 2007 is to give up the things that we don’t like. Give up the things that make us feel bad and go with the things that make you and I feel good. That make us feel that life is amazing. That remind us that we are amazing. It doesn’t mean that we can now sit on the sofa, eat chips and watch TV–no reaching for the higher feeling thought or action means taking action. It means thinking a better thought, taking a better action, and then slowly, bit by bit you will realzie that you are in fact amazing. That your life is amazing, and that your purpose is to be amazing.
