How to find your purpose in life
The rising consciousness has started to sow seeds into people's minds about finding their life purpose. The question "what is my life purpose" is now on everyone's lips. Many people have asked for my help to find their purpose, so I wanted to write down some of my advice so that everyone can read it.
At the moment, everyone is reading books about finding their purpose in life and asking for help from psychics, teachers, and life coaches. Even if a gifted psychic could tell you your purpose, the purpose wants acceptance within. It wants you to live and breathe it. It wants YOU to connect with it and choose it. It wants you to be it. It is not something you see in your mind, as it lives in your soul. Everyone has it and was born with it. However, you forgot everything, including your purpose when you incarnated into this planet as a human. Thus, the rising consciousness collectively is now helping you to remember again.
Your life purpose becomes like THE northern star on your journey
Your work and purpose often walk hand in hand, but the purpose is not only your profession. It is so much more than that.
Your purpose in life is the Northern Star, shining the brightest light while guiding you on your journey. It lives within you – it is that inner spark you have for sure felt a few times. Your profession (and hobbies etc.) are the tools that help you navigate under this star.
It is good to understand that you and me both have a place on this planet, so we all can be abundant when living our purpose. It is nothing away from you, when someone else connects with their purpose. As soon as you deeply understand that we are one, we are here as a community and we are here to help the Universe create its destiny, your mindset changes towards being in service.
That mindset change might make you leave your old job. Or change the way you deliver your work. You might change your hobbies, and what you do in your free time.
Now the question “what is my purpose” changes. It becomes all about how can you be in service to others and be a part of the greater destiny of the Universe.
Even when you manifest your purpose from the service mindset, your toolset will keep changing as the only thing constant is change. Actually, when we grow and our energy vibration rises, our life purpose will evolve as well. So try not to be too attached to the way you manifest your purpose via the work you do, as it will change! And allow the purpose to evolve with your growth.
Finding your northern star
It might take some time to connect with your soul’s purpose. Just like in everything in life, it is more about the journey. Oh, I get it; you might have heard that sentence so many times that it has become already somewhat annoying! But once you understand your purpose, you realize that the same journey continues that you have walked this far. But now the guidance has evolved, you are more connected to the path and thus makes you feel different.
So, how can we start connecting with your northern star?
There are many ways to connect with it. Simply the more you work on yourself, the more you heal yourself, the more you connect with yourself, the more apparent it all becomes. Because layer by layer, you dig deeper within. And the deeper you dive, the faster you connect with your soul. So, rather than keep asking, “what is my purpose” I would encourage you to stop searching. And create space for it to show up. Why? Because, when you search, you usually do not see what is in front of you. So instead, take a scuba diving trip towards your soul in meditation and start connecting with your purpose.
Here’s what you can do. Find a quiet place where you do this meditation. You can sit or lay down. I would encourage you to play something calming from Spotify. During your meditation, focus on directing your attention to the below questions. Perhaps, you will need to do a few meditations. Give yourself time. No one has found the answers in one go.
1. Who am I?
2. What brings me joy and makes me shine right now?
3. How can I be of service to others, this planet, and the Universe?
Remember to be open, my dear, as your purpose might be (just) one word, like LOVE. As you think about LOVE, you realize how many different ways (all those tools from the work you do to volunteering) there are to deliver more love to this planet.
