Infusing Presence into Life Purpose

Jun 24, 2024 11:01 pm

Do you ever wonder what your "Life Purpose" is? I know I have. Question like:


  • Why are you here?
  • Who and what are you?
  • What life is about?
  • How can you make the best use of your slife?
  • What must you accomplish before you die so you have no regrets?


If you have a powerful life purpose, you have a reason, a goal, and a justification for being alive. Purpose provides structure and guidance to life. When you succeed you feel worthy and valuable.

When you fail, you may question whether you are on the right path. Should it be this hard? Isn't the universe supposed to support you?


Life coaches will tell you to pursue your vision no matter what. Keep seeking the solution! We are reminded of the story of Edison and the thousand ways he learned not to make a light bulb. We are told to be like Edison and never give up.


Did you know that Edison may never have succeeded if the black inventor, Lewis Latimer, had not joined his project and given him the solution to a long-lasting bulb?


Spirit can help us with the tension between success and vision. It invites us into a completely different paradigm.

What if your life purpose is to wake up to your true, authentic self, i.e. simply be the best you?


What does that mean?


It means taking action that "feels" right to you i.e. take action that is inspiring and satisfying in and of itself without regard to the approval or acknowledgment of others.


But wait, if you don't consider the reactions of others, how do you recognize success?


This is not a stupid question especially if you have spent years seeking the approval of others. You may not know how to recognize what feels right inside because it was never important. That was my story. I had to awaken my self-awareness after so many years of focusing on the needs of others.


This is where Spiritual work and presence come in. They provide the communication line to the inner you. They help you recognize what "feels right" and will inspire you with plenty of activities to try out. Maybe you don't even have to choose just one.

There is another key to fulfilling a spiritual purpose, i.e. service. Spirit reminds us that we are all one, all connected. To be truly successful in life, you must be of service to others, i.e. use your gifts and talents to uplift others. When we all do that, we all succeed.


This is very different from the "me first," or "me-me" approach to life. We've been doing that particular life experiment for quite a while now. You may have noticed that it has not been working very well for you or most of the rest of the inhabitants of this planet.


Are you ready to try something different? Are you ready to pursue a purpose that is satisfying and inspiring to you and serves others?
