Focusing on Your Life and Finding Your Life Purpose

What is the meaning of my life? What is the meaning of life altogether? Why am I even here? We hear this expression everywhere. It's on television, it is in the music we listen to everyday, and we hear people talk about it all the time. So what is the meaning of life and what purpose do you have to do with it?

Well, it depends who you ask that to. Try and ask three different people that same question. I guarantee you will get three different answers and that is okay. There is no good, bad, right, or wrong way about it. It is simply we all have different perception of life and we all had different experiences with it.

Even though we could all go through similar experiences, how we react is entirely up to us. Therefore, every experience is unique just like you. Have you wonder why you are here? Is it you would like to make differences in the world and use your creative gifts along with it? We do have a mission that we chose to accomplish before we were born and that mission is what we are doing right now. Some of us have a mission to put a smile on a stranger's face or becoming a speaker at a conference that talk about your creative gifts.

Coming from a spirituality point of view, after I have been doing some researching and reading from books about spirituality topics, the meaning of life is to serve. Now, that could be serving God, the Universe, angels, or whomever you choose to serve to. Bottom line is to serve, help others, show love, bring kindness, and using your gifts to make a positive difference in the world. We are all here to learn with whatever lesson we chose to bring before we were born. We brought karma from our past life to finish with whatever we didn't finish before in that past life and we chose our parents, siblings, family, friends, spouses, pets, and house we live in, and so forth. In order to perfect our soul, we look for those perfect teachers to help us grow and advanced. We all have different life lesson to accomplished and in order to do that, well you are already doing it right now by living.

Whatever crossroad and roller coaster ride you experiences, it is another hurdle you need to get over so you can perfect your soul. So yes, the tougher the lessons are, the more knowledge you gained from that experience. Now, what do you learn when life was easy? I thought so! We never really learn anything when life was easy. Now we are not meant to go through these tough obstacles on our own. This is why your spirit guides and your angels are there to help. All you do is simply just ask for them to help and they will be right at your side! You can say, think, yell, or write for them to ask for help. It doesn't matter how you ask for help, just matter asking! There are also outside help as well to make sure you are getting over these hurdles. Always, always ask for help when you need to because there are beautiful souls are there that want to help people just like you!

Life is about finding your creative gifts that have been hidden away inside for years and bringing it out to the world. Life is also about being at service to people and helping them out as much as we can. We do have the power to bring a smile to a stranger's face or to create peace among ourselves and others. It is all about making a positive difference to the world. Have you had a stranger given you a warm smile in the morning before you had to start work or start school? Did that really made your day and felt like you were on cloud nine the whole day? Now imagine doing that one kind thing a day to a stranger, a family member, or a friend everyday! What a wonderful difference you can make to that person's life. It all about bringing love and happiness to show that the world is not negative and there is really kindness out there. It really does conquer everything.

But you may ask, "Even if I'm nice to someone, they are still being negative toward me?" That can be a tough situation to be in but it is another lesson you are going to have to learn. This is a great example of shining your light to get rid of the negativity or not letting it bother you. Of course, one's immediate response in this situation is to be negative right now but that doesn't do any good, right? Next thing you will know, there is an argument taken place and we don't want that! What you can do is to send love and light to that person and continue to be kind. Yes it may hurt but being positive always out weight the negative.

We need more of that positive energy to bring love and kindness to the world. And that where you come in! We hear all of the greatest teachers being treated so horrible to where most of them get picked on or getting hurt. But what do these great leaders do? They smile and continue to move forward. They continue to do what they need to do with their life and bring that difference to the world. They forgive the people that cause them harm and understood they were acting out of fear. This is how many great leaders and teachers accomplished the unaccomplished. They understand life is not easy but they trust themselves to where they understand they would be walking the world alone. But, they knew they have a mission in life and that is to be at service. They understand that they will have to face pain, deal with loss, heartbreak, and even death. They never gave up. Would you give up accomplishing your life purpose? Of course not. Nobody would.

Since you want to be able to help others by using your gifts that you are born with, it is possible that you can be able to do that. There are thousands of people on this planet right now helping others with their gifts and that could be a teacher helping a student understanding math to a scientist discovering the next big thing so he can show it to the world and make history. It does not matter what the title is, all it matters is that these people are doing what they have been dreamed about doing since they were children. So yes, it is possible and yes you do have the time to make this dream into a reality.

Think about the stuff you like to do, a hobby you invest your free time in. It could be writing, photography, designing, singing, acting, and the like. All of these wonderful creative gifts are a chance where you can express those gifts to the world by doing what you love to do and helping others. You can write a book for readers that are involved in the supernatural to taking pictures for a young model who is hoping to make a career out of it and to bring a lot of laugh to the audience when you are up on stage performing your best. Wouldn't you love to make a career out of those hobbies you spend so much time on? Have you sat and day dreamed about it in class? Well, now you can make those dreams into a reality!

The hardest part of every project is getting started. Think of a time when you were in school and had to create a science project. You were overwhelmed by all of the work that is sitting right before your eyes but you knew deep down inside it's going to be finished by the due date. So you chose to work on that project a little bit day by day. Then on the weekend, you invest a few hours into that project. You continue to do this until it was due and next thing you know that project turn out to be a beautiful masterpiece!

This is exactly the same method for getting started on your life purpose. In the beginning, you probably feel overwhelmed by all the work and not only that, but you are probably feeling scared. "What would my family and friends think about this? Will I have enough time? I don't have the money to do this! I can't make a career out of it, I have bills to pay!" It is perfectly normal to think of these thoughts because you are stepping into the unknown and going into something you are not familiar with. You are stepping out of your comfort zone and now you are probably second guessing yourself, right? Many great authors and inventors probably thought of the same things you are thinking about but they were able to dismiss those thoughts and believe in themselves. Look at J.K Rowling for example. She uses her imagination and her writing gifts to make the best selling books and now movies, Harry Potter!

You can ask God, your angels, or your spirit guides to help you getting started. You could simply just ask "What steps should I take involving my life purpose?" Now pay attention to the signs. You could see, hear, feel, or think of those signs. We all have those gifts and two of them are our primary and secondary gifts. Opportunities could come up or a class that can help your creativity all of the sudden open up. Take advantage of those opportunities! That is the small step into creating the future you have always wanted.

When I first started writing this article, I was nervous because I felt that nobody wanted to read this and I was worried about not having enough time to finish it! So I turn to my angels and ask them for help. They showed me that there is not stch thing as time in their world and it's a shame that humans are measuring time now in order to feel rushed. They also told me to work on my project a little bit everyday and continue to do that. So by not worrying about time, money, and getting it done, well you are reading it right now! Trust me, I was in your shoes not too long ago but it is possible to get started on your life purpose work and make it happen! Have faith and believe that you will accomplish it!

Here are a few fun exercises that can help you out. You can create a vision board by cutting up pictures from magazines or the internet and put them on a huge poster board you can get it at a local store. Put up what you desire and what you want in your life on that board. It could be money, to a new job, a new car, or simply focusing on your life purpose, for example to be a dancer. You put up people dancing on that board and you choose a location you would like to live in and whatever else that you would like on there. Then put it somewhere where you can see it all the time so you create that feeling of already becoming a dancer. Feeling and believing are very powerful when it comes to creating what you want in your life.

You can also write down a list of the qualities of what you desire. When I was looking for a new job, I wrote down the qualities of a new job and wrote down how much money I want to make, how far it is from my house, and so forth. Then I wrote the date that I want this job by, either being hiring or already working and I put that paper in my drawer. I trust that the Universe will take care of it for me and went along applying for jobs. Always and I mean always, I get the job I wrote down on that paper. I believe and have faith the Universe took care of it and it did! The fact that I trust and let go of my worries speed up the process. You can do this exercise with anything that you want! Remember: let go of the worries and give it to the Universe and trust that your wish will come true because it will!
