Live Your Life's Purpose

“A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write if he is to ultimately be at peace with himself. What a man can be, he must be.”n n —Abraham Maslow

Each one of us was born for a definite purpose. Some of us find out what it is quite early in life, others do so later while others remain uncertain for quite a while before finding out.

Do you know what your purpose is? If your answer to this question happens not to be in the affirmative, there’s no need to panic. This article will help you to determine what you particular purpose in life is.

In accordance with the Law of Being, you were born to have a happy, enjoyable and fulfilled life. However, in order for you to achieve this end, you must live your life’s purpose.

Your purpose is linked to the special talents with which you were born. Therefore, you must find out what they are, develop and use them to the best of your ability.

Instead of nurturing our own God-given gifts, many of us prefer to admire and imitate those of others. We do not appreciate that we were born to do something outstanding in our life. As a result, we end up living our lives vicariously through our heroes and heroines. Unhappily, many of us choose to have a passive existence.

You should be aware that you are a spiritual being who is blessed with limitless possibilities. Indeed, you have a personal call to greatness. This latter is as unique as your DNA. Know that there’s something in this world that you were born to do very well.

As a unique creation of God, you were born with special talents to enable you to give full expression to the world. You must use them to this end. The Bible says, “Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee…Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them.”

Refrain from having more appreciation for what the Creator has given to someone else. Rather, you must align your innate talents with your purpose. By taking this important step, you’ll be setting the stage to live the life you were born to live

Whereas people can help you to develop your special talents, no one can tell you what your real purpose is. To find out what’s your purpose, you must focus on your talents and nurture them while you listen to your inner voice.
By your purpose, I do not mean a profession. However, it’s a fact that your purpose can lead to something by which you could earn a livelihood. I guarantee it! In any event, your purpose is something more fundamental. It’s your raison d’être or your personal calling. Something you love to do very much and you’re very passionate about. That which gives you such great satisfaction you never get tired doing it. It’s a joyous expression of who you are.

There are many people who spend their life going through the motion just for the money. They are able to afford many of the things that money can buy; however, they will admit to you that they do not like what they have to do to make the money. Therefore, they do not look forward to doing it the next day and the days that will come after that.

When you’re living your life’s purpose, you love and enjoy what you do. Oftentimes you lose track of time while you’re doing it. You do not want to take a break from it. And you can’t wait for the next day to dawn for you to get back to doing it.

We were all born to make a significant contribution in our life. There’s something that each of us was born to do very well. And you’re no exception.

Finding out what your purpose is should not be burdensome. Think about the things you’ve have accomplished, to date, whether as part of a group or by yourself. They don’t have to be earth shattering. Recognize that everything happens in good time. The important thing is how you felt while doing them.

Therefore, at this point, just try to recall the skills you utilized the most and your feelings while you were engaged in the effort(s). This simple exercise will provide you with clues about what your natural talents are.

Next, pay attention to that which stimulates and energizes you to the fullest. Think about what it is that you like doing so much that you do not even think about the passing of time while you are doing it. While you are on a break from it, you’re so excited you can’t wait to return to it.

You should know that in all of creation, there has never been anyone like you. Your talents, desires, insights, and ways of doing things are unique to you. When you find out what is your true purpose in life, you will feel it and you will know it. There will be absolutely no doubt in your mind. It’s not what others may think about it that’s important it’s how it feels to you.

So, like others before me, I urge not to die with your “music” still in you. Find out what your purpose in life is and do it with love. Share it with the world and you’ll receive fulfillment and joy. And your happiness will be enhanced.
