purpose is . . .
the reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists. It is important to understand that our purpose is discovered, not set. When we attempt to set purpose to achieve a goal, we are often left empty. Think back at the last time you set a goal and achieved it. How did you feel?
​
I have felt joy for the moment, but it is usually followed by emptiness. I have been left asking myself, “now what?” The reason this happens is that true purpose is something that each of us has been born with. When we serve our purpose and accomplish a goal, we activate our joy and fulfillment.
Once you know your purpose, it is easier to make choices about your life. It will become easier to understand why you do the things you do, and why you step away from the things you step away from. Knowing your purpose will help you understand just how important it is to trust your gut, that intuition, that knowing is reliable. Trust yourself. Your purpose is connected to your heart. It is engrained in your soul. You were created for a purpose. Connect to it, and live the life you've always dreamed of.
