Are you a Captain America, a Katniss Everdeen or a Forrest Gump?
Actually, if you were any of them, you’d be leading a pretty great life when it comes to living in your purpose.
⭐️ Captain America put up a strong fight for the week.
⭐️ Katniss encouraged people to break through barriers to achieve what they wanted.
⭐️ And Forrest spent his life standing up for what is right.
These are just fictional characters though.
How does that relate to us?
Well, we learn so much about the world from stories and learning about our Purpose is one of the greatest things we can do, in my opinion.
And these stories show us what is possible.
However, these heroes weren’t just out for themselves, everything they did was for the good of others. And how people went on to live their lives in a different way after being in contact with these heroes was the real success story.
However, there are quite a few misconceptions about purpose.
🚫 Some believe it’s a goal we set ourselves.
🚫 Some think it’s a motivational statement we repeat to ourselves.
🚫 And some think it’s something we do.
I believe our Purpose is much more deep rooted in us, it’s our reason for doing what we do. It’s something we believe in that is consistent through most of our life. It’s a core part of what makes us who we are.
And from that, it’s very difficult to ‘do’ your Purpose.
❌ So, our job is not our purpose.
❌ Playing our sport is not our purpose.
❌ Being rich is not our purpose.
But we can be the person who will achieve our Purpose. And we can grow and build and develop that person. And by being that person, the people around us will begin to feel and know what your purpose is.
Our Purpose in our lives will remain pretty constant, but the activities we do to express it can change as we move through our lives.
However, our Purpose will thread through all these activities and we will continue to inspire and affect the people around us and even around the world.
🌟So, do you know what your Purpose is?
🌟Have you thought about it and know what the consistent theme is running through your life?
🌟Do you know how you want to affect others during your life?
If so, please share it in the comments, I’d love to hear about it. 💕
And keep making a difference. ✨
