When it comes to living a life of purpose and destiny, it requires ALL of you. Unfortunately, there can be an inner saboteur that gets in the way of you really taking a risk to stand out and shine.

What I found from working with thousands of people is that it is essential to get into right relationship with your ego and your soul.

If you are not addressing the needs, conce
s, and fears of the ego you will never live your Soul Purpose because the ego will attempt to trip you at every step of the way.

To live you Soul Purpose, you will be asked to take a leap of faith. And if you don’t have your ego on board with your decision, you will never have the strength, courage, commitment, and determination to take that leap.

Purpose gives your life meaning and sense of direction; it is the organizing principle for creating the life of your dreams. Imagine it as your internal compass; it will guide you to your true destination (DESTINY).

Purpose is the thing in your that you stand for. It inspires you and drives you. Purpose helps you imagine your future because it focuses your mind on what is most important.
So, here’s the first step in getting into right relationship with your ego so that you can begin to seek your Soul Purpose.

1. Write down a list of all of the reasons, conce
s, and fears you have for why you should not go after your Soul Purpose. Be thorough here. It’s important that you write down every one.

2. For each reason, concern, and fear, write down the condition that needs to be satisfied in order for your ego to go along with living your Soul Purpose.

Example:

Fear:

I won’t make enough money.
I don’t have what it takes.
Condition:

I need to earn a minimum of $1500 per month by November 2010.
I need to feel good about myself and like I am making a difference.
As new fears come up, write them down and list the condition for that fear. As long as you are able to meet the conditions, then your ego will be on-board with your direction.

Remember: You can’t do this without your ego. If you don’t know what your Soul Purpose is, your ego will block all communications with your Soul (so that you can discover your purpose) unless you’ve addressed your ego’s fear.

You ego will constantly tell you “I am not” when your soul knows that I AM.

When you learn to integrate your limited self (ego) with your greater self (soul), you will be well on your way to enjoying your greatest life! When you discover and live your Soul Purpose, your entire life will become magical and “soul-satisfying”.

My 8 week Soul Purpose Accelerator multi-media program includes a powerful Soul Dialogue Process that allows you to learn to integrate your ego so that it feels safe, as well as meditations, exercises all designed to bring clarity and confidence as you walk the path of Purpose.
