Life is already stressful enough. When we are in elementary school, grownups ask us what we want to be when we grow up. Because our experience is confined to the context in which we were raised, we tend to respond to what we've seen so far: a police officer, a fireman, or a doctor. Maybe we're lucky if our parents are attorneys, engineers, or scientists because we've had a lot more exposure to those occupations.
When we are in college, we are supposed to select a major that will help us decide what we want to do with the rest of our life. By this point, we've been able to go beyond our parents' experiences and live fairly independently, broadening our horizons and gaining a better understanding of what we might want to achieve.
We are not taught that purpose is something that finds us rather than something that we seek. Many individuals enter a career and initially like it, only to discover years later that it drains them, takes time away from their family, and limits their financial prosperity.
We are ever-changing beings, and what we enjoy now may not be what we like tomorrow.
Some might call that unstable, yet you are physically different now than you were yesterday; would you call that unstable? No, because you comprehend physicality's physics. Our thoughts and hearts function in the same manner.
It's not a job we're looking for; it's our purpose, our passion, but such things don't fit into a box and don't have a title. They just exist within you and come to life when the road you're intended to travel illuminates one step at a time in front of you.
Your task is to relax, be generic in what you desire, and feel the sensations of having that item right now, enabling your path to be shown to you and guiding you straight to your actual self.
You have the option of forcing your course by following the steps outlined by the people who came before you.
Children between the ages of 4 and 5 attend Kindergarten and use 98 percent of their creativity (Infinite Intelligence). Kids drop down to 30% by the time they are ten, in the fifth grade. By the age of 23, that figure has dropped to 2%. What transpired?
Individuals who used 2% of their creativity began educating people who used 98 percent of their creativity, thus demonstrating to the youngsters how to not be themselves totally and freely. Humans, unlike animals, rely on reasoning rather than instinct after we reach a certain age and are educated by the 2% to be "practical" in life. That is, achieving the top grades in school, attending college, finding a career, and so on. There is minimal focus on discovering who we are as individuals via the use of our imagination, often known as creativity.
I've done a lot in my life because I believe in free expression, creativity, and that the impossible is only an opinion. I'm a writer, film producer, leader, mother, wife, entrepreneur, founder, singer, strategist, speaker, healer, energy reader, metaphysician, and a lot more. I never have enough room in my profile to convey everything about myself since nothing defines me. I am everything.
You can be suffering with your mission since it hasn't yet been fulfilled.
Every day, my mission seeks and finds me.
I've been successful at what I've done by just following the positive feelings that have been offered to me on a daily basis. I ask for what I desire and let the journey take its course. There is no need to feel pressed. I'm just splurging on The Art of Being. It's so much simpler and more purposeful.
When I realized that what I was looking for was looking for me, I let up of attempting to find my purpose. Life began to lead me exactly where I wanted to be, exactly where I needed to be, and I am so grateful to be here.
For years, I strived to be the perfect student, daughter, friend, sister, employee, and boss, only to discover that I had learned to satisfy everyone around me at a young age, but had never learned to please myself.
We can relieve the stress of attempting to define something that does not exist. Your mission is to be yourself. You are the whole embodiment of your mission. It is just to be and let what you desire to come to you. That's all. That's it.
