Living Your Life Purpose !!!

“Your purpose in life is to find your purpose and give your whole heart and soul to it” 

― Gautama Buddha

“Efforts and courage are not enough without purpose and direction” - John F. Kennedy

This article tries to give you some insights to understand  or to help you to progressively think  the concepts mentioned below: 

Who am I?

Why am I here?

What is life?

What is purpose?

What is life purpose?

Why should live my life purpose?

Who am I? 

Common answer flashes in our mind gives name, full name, title, role in family, role in society. Irrespective of these all answers, you still have a lot to say, think and discuss. This question makes you to get identified by something and give answers such as name, designation, role, profession etc. The very nature of this question is to questioning nature. This is common question that people may ask while wondering about human existence. This kind of questions may lead to many answers and each answer made up with the impressions on one’s mind by parents, life situations, teachers, school environment, friends, culture, media, other people, country and society at a large. In this article let us just refer ourselves as human beings instead of identified by our names, last names, family names, caste, nationality, colour, religion. Since the best name that we can give (as per my understanding right now) is to call a creature like you and me is HUMAN BEING.

Why am I here?

I am here to do many things.

·         To prove myself and my strength

·         To create a better society by my training and coaching work

·         To take care of my family and friends

·         To support and help people in possible ways

·         To build home, enjoy luxury vehicles, create best places for my family and friends

·         To create a better company, wrote books, develop audio video programs

·         To serve for the plants, animals, human beings

• To leave this world a better place than earlier

These may be answers. Based on the world that you have seen and life you experienced, age you are in, kind of environment and other conditions of life, you get your own list of answers. Don’t worry about what you answers you get too much. Look at this scenario. There are around thousands of creatures and 700+ crores of human beings on this planet. Crores of might have already in the past and crores of people will be born in future. It is the nature that creates. That means everyone is created (birth), by eating food we are accumulating this body (live and develop body), then at some age we die (death). What happens to our body when we die? There must be an energy by natures creation in creating us, all of us including creataures, animals, birds, plants are a forms of the energy in a unique way. When we die, the creations energy might have gone into some other form and all that we developed (body through eating food) only remain. Anyway the surprising, exciting, great process of this universal creation is great expression. In such case , why to worry about why am I here. When we are here we are a an energy in human being form. With this understanding why don’t we use this life energy when we are alive? Can we make this life more meaningful, fruitful and joyful for all of us instead wondering why we are here?

What is life?

Life is an expression of energy in a specific form within specific time.

That expression can be a natural dynamics happening in the environment, creating a living being, making shifts in the universe through various energy transformations. Here the form refers to human being, bird, animal or any creature. When life is created (something is born), energy is taken in a form and when that living being is died energy takes different form. The time between the creation and death is called life. End of the life (when we die) is also considered as an energy transformation. Again there is a question that positively moves us all. When there are around thousands of millions of creatures in this world and we are fortunately a living beings who can control, understand and think what we want and do what we love, why don’t we use this life energy to pursue of ultimate purpose of life?

What is life purpose?

Life purpose is the driving force of human existence. Acting on your life purpose enables a you to express your life energy, ultimate love and innate potential to serve the deepest needs including certainty, joy, peace, growth, security, adventures. Purpose is not just like fuel for motor cycle it is life energy like oxygen for human life cycle. Your purpose gives value clarity, big picture of life, peace and balance between current responsibilities and dream life. If you live with conscious understanding of your purpose, the activities of your life can also serve your unconscious needs enabling you progress much better. one operates at the at the level of life purpose, he can work beyond the mediocre life such as earning money, getting recognition, having luxuries while appreciating the value of life, people and services.

How to find whether you have a life purpose now?

If you are living a most celebrating life you have ever known irrespective of your life situations, if you get up every morning as an expression of your life energy, if you feel you are living with love, passion, exuberance, energy, and excellence; you are living your real purpose.

Why should you have a life purpose?

Some people may think I am not worried about having a purpose. These kinds of people may say

·          I don’t care about having a purpose

·         Anyway life may turn based on situations and we cannot except what happens next 

·         Life is meaningless. There is no point in trying to assign a meaning

·         Only great people like Mahathma Gandhi, Bill Gates, Nelson Mandela, Mother Theresa, Edison, Oprah Winfrey have purpose and we are normal human beings and we cannot or need not to have purpose

·         Let me try to enjoy my days as I want or get a job or get some money then I will work on my purpose

 

What do you think about these statements? These are all beliefs that one might have developed through social conditioning. Imagine a life of those who live their purpose and those who don’t even realise the value of life and purpose lived for some time. Imagine two people born in same conditions and lived for same number of years. Whom do you think would have celebrated the life at fullest in inner and outer world? You can even take examples of those whom you can observe in your own community and those you may come across with your life. Who do you think make a living and who celebrated a life?

 

Look at the people around you. Have you ever known people who truly, really feel like they are alive? Those with a great smile on face, a great energy aura surrounding their presence, bright, widen and sparkling eyes, make intelligent quality conversations with exciting and inspiring words all the time. These are the people passionate about their life purpose and the purpose is their DNA, oxygen and obsession.

On the other hand, there are some people who takes life as it come, unaware or unidentified with their life purpose, pseudo-satisfied with what they get in life, indulge in negative thinking,  complaining, and dissatisfaction. These people face look dull, with less or no brightness in eyes, low energy levels and talk mediocre or disempowering words.

What kind of life are you living now? What kind of life you want to spend throughout your life?

If you are not living the life you want, you must be living the life that society wants for you. Would you like to live entire life disconnected to what your real life meant to be?  As long as you don’t have clarity on what your life purpose is, chances are you are living the purpose imposed by the society. What option you choose? Invest your life energy aimlessly as most of the people in this world do or living the life purpose. Would you want life to be decided by experiences or you want to decide and experiences of your life?  

The benefits of finding and living your life purpose:

 

1.    You can enjoy sense of inner strength, meaning, belongingness and fulfillment in life. Instead of wasting time, questioning why life is like that, you can make the best use of your life energy. The power of managing your life energy in purpose bring ultimate fulfillment.

2.    You will be charged by passion, innate talents, unfolded energy level based on the situations in life, you will start thinking positively and progress towards life irrespective of life situations.

3.    You can gain the single, powerful direction and focus for your life like as a radar that guides you through your life’s choices, decisions and actions. You also will understand those areas that can unnecessary take you off from your life purpose and hence will have a greater freedom to choose to not to indulge in things that don’t matter for you.

4.    You can enjoy freedom and freely select what you want for your life. The people you want in your life, the places you love spend your time, the kind of conversations you want to make, work, things and all that need for a celebrating life.

5.    You will get clarity and  it instantly gives you clear direction. Your mind can make a difference between what that’s most important and what not. You’ll be in relationships that match what you want. You’ll take on projects and actions that are in accordance with what you want. It’s the start toward living a life of your highest alignment.

6.    In the process of passionately living your purpose leads you to achieve excellence. Like joining in play school at the age of three, joining in LKG when we are five, getting married and produce children; society or our culture has not talked anything about achieving excellence through purpose in a formal way or as a way of lifestyle such as adopting to use of cell phones, computers and internet. Still making the way forward and getting schedules and actions with the activities in line with your purpose makes you an energy in action. Purpose serves as a vision and mission of the company. It works as inbuilt operating system with life time warranty for human system.
