What brings you joy?

What makes your heart sing?

What are you doing when you lose all sense of time while you are doing it?

These are indications that you are living (in that moment) in purpose. Living in purpose brings an authentic alignment with your inner joy. When you do these things often and share them in your own unique way with the world around you, then you are in alignment with your Soul. In other words, you are connecting to and aligning with that part of yourself that is the truth of who you are. This is beyond the roles you play, the masks you wear, the personality you present to the world and most importantly it is beyond fear.

Experiment with random acts of kindness and find your purpose

This week is all about random acts of kindness. Begin this week by asking yourself, “what can I do today to bring peace to someone’s day, a smile to their face or happiness into their heart?”… and then answer this question based on what brings YOU joy and makes YOUR heart sing.

You can also ask;  “How may I serve?” or “How can I help?” But make sure you aren’t asking from a sense of duty, a place of  people pleasing or craving acceptance. “Service” is helping from a place of alignment with your own gifts and talents. “Purpose” is to serve and help others in a way that honors and expresses your unique & individual talents! Whether you volunteer your services or get paid for your services – the alignment is the same. Your alignment come from that place of joy inside of you and from that place you will always show up as your best self!

Whether your talent is

• Cooking
• Teaching
• Singing
• Listening
• Taking care of others
• Making others laugh
• Compassion
• Making others feel special
• Gardening
• Organizing

if you love and enJOY doing it – it is your purpose.

My belief is that we are all spiritual beings (Souls) having a human experience and your Soul came here to live out and fulfil many purposes and when you find yourself in that place of joy or timeless awareness – you have found and aligned with your purpose.

When you are in alignment with your purpose – you feel it and you know it!

Purpose isn’t necessarily a big important major accomplishment; although for you maybe it is and that is a beautiful thing. Living your purpose can be as simple as being at peace in your life or as big as saving countless lives. What ever you are doing, if you are doing it with joy – it is a beautiful thing. No one can dictate to you what your purpose is and only when you are in alignment with the joy you feel while doing or being it – will you even understand it. Quite possibly you may have many purposes, many talents, many gifts and many unique ways of expressing it. No person is better for having more.

Sadly some Souls live the majority of their life in the ego-mind of fear, lack and limitations and never even find their joy, or the many purpose’s they may have come here to express and live out.

Make sure you aren’t one of those Souls 😊

Where to begin?

How do you discover your purpose, talents and gifts?

1. Consider all things that you love to do.
2. Make a list of all the things that bring you joy when you are doing them. Try some new things too!!
3. You now have a starter list of your unique talents and gifts. If you are having a tough time making your list – give it time and take a few days to tune into what you really enjoy. Remember the law of least effort – when you try too hard – you can miss things right in front of you. This is all about tuning into what brings you joy and the process of enjoyment occurs when you lose track of time while in the act of doing something.
4. Now, how can you use these talents, gifts & joys to help others?
5. The answer to that, is your next best step!

It is important to recognize that the ego-mind questions “What’s in it for me?” but the Soul asks “How can I help?” Shifting this internal dialogue moves you beyond the ego and aligns you with your heart-centered Soul space. The space of your joy, purpose and ultimately your pure potential!

Simply smiling at someone or giving them a compliment can be of service and fill you and others up with joy.

Being of service can take shape in many different ways. There is no right or wrong way to serve or help. Basically, if you are in joy and creating joy wherever you go – you are in purpose. If you are in peace and create peace wherever you go… you are in purpose. Get the idea? 😊 What could you do today to bring laughter to someone’s day?

For no reason other than to tap into your inner potential & joy – do random acts of kindness and feel the joy in doing them!

Essentially isn’t this what life really is all about? I believe it is!

Namaste my friends;
