Discover Your Life PurposeWritten by Andrew Lawrence
Everyone has a life purpose; a unique and special something each of us is supposed to do in LIFE. A life purpose is not a specific job or career, it is much deeper and much more fulfilling. Now, you can uncover your own life purpose. You can do it easy, fast, modern way, using a modestly priced online program, or you can uncover your own life purpose using more difficult (but free) old-fashioned do-it-yourself method. If you want to save a few bucks and try doing it yourself here's how ... There are 3 main parts to your life purpose ... motivations, life principles, and service to others. Step #1 Motivations First, list at least 5 activities you like to do most. Next you list actions required to do your favorite activities. Use only "action verbs"; action verbs are words like: create, nurture, restore, catagorize, communicate, etc. Then, narrow action verbs down to top 3 choices. Step #2 Principles Next you list ideals that you, personally, believe in most strongly. What you stand for. Come up with as many as you can think of (5 or more if possible). Then you choose single most important principle to you; your guiding principle.

So you have set your goals for year. Congratulations! I have come to believe most of us set our goals for incorrect reasons. We set goals for short term objectives. Most of these objectives concern materialistic wants: money, and physical things. Let's look at a slightly different approach. Start with deciding what your life should be. Take some time to define your life five years from now. Here are some questions you might ask yourself. 1. What am I feeling? 2. What types of people are around me? 3. What are my surroundings like? 4. What am I doing? 5. Where am I going? 6. Where have I been? Notice there are no questions dealing with money, or named places, or named people. The answers to these questions will provide you with attitudes, feelings, values, perceptions and other non tangible ideas that make life worth living no matter where you are, who you are with, or what you are doing! If we have created a lifestyle that we like, then physical part of our lives will fit right in and accompany lifestyle because it has to! My suggestion is to look at lifestyle you want to create, and set your plan to achieve lifestyle instead if physical side of life most of us set our goals to achieve.
