CREATING YOUR OWN VISION

Have You Ever Asked Yourself Any of These Questions?

What is the purpose of my life?
Why am I here?
Where am I going?

Life is full of peaks and valleys. When you’re in the valley, you might not see the value of it until later when you look back and realize all you’ve learned. That all by yourself you are a complete and perfect creation. A person with a purpose! The journey it takes to discover that purpose is the difference between making a living and making a life. If you don’t know your purpose, hurry up and find one! Knowing who you are and what you are meant to be gives you the energy you need to create the life that will make you happy.

Many of us have been brainwashed into thinking that having a beautiful home, a high-powered job or immense wealth is the only true definition of success. This might work for some people, but fortunately we don’t all fit the same mold. Likely or not what works for others often leaves us feeling frustrated and sad because we’re not really doing what we enjoy. Don’t believe me? Just look the lives of some of the world’s most successful people. Walt Disney wanted to make people happy. Donald Trump wanted to build wildly successful hotels & Mother Theresa wanted to care and comfort the poor. Their success was achieved because they discovered the joy of having a definite purpose in life.

As they say, “watch and learn” even though we’re all struggling with our own issues, everyone we meet has something to teach us. If a person exasperates you and causes you to blow your top, then you probably needed to work on patience. That’s why it’s imperative that we create our own measure of success and then develop a personal strategy to achieve it. Being careful not to confuse our purpose in life with our personal goals. Although goals are crucial to achieving any kind of success, left alone they can become empty and undirected. You may set hundreds of goals, in a lifetime, but there is only one true purpose in life and that purpose should be the underlying core that gives your goals direction and meaning.

Remember, no one is more important, worthy or special than you. You have talents that no one else can offer. There is a special goodness and love in you. Never treat your own emotional, physical and spiritual health as an afterthought. Instead make your own well being a priority because it is truly YOU that makes the difference!
