When we don’t have a sense of purpose in our lives, it’s hard to stay motivated and happy. This can be especially true for women, who often feel they need to have a specific goal or destiny to feel fulfilled. But that’s not true! There are many ways to find your sense of purpose; below, and I’ll outline five of them. So if you’re feeling lost, don’t worry – these tips will help you find your way.
5. “Life is a journey, not a destination.”
There is no finish line, and there isn’t a destination.
“We do not dance and aim at a certain spot in the room because that is where we ought to arrive at. The whole point of the dancing is the dance”
Alan Watts
Every day we learn something, and learning is the most soul-satisfying endeavour we can indulge in. The soul loves growth by experience. So stay cool, and calm yourself. You don’t have anywhere to be but where you are.
4. Trust yourself
You are the only one who knows what you are looking for; take your time, go inside and find out what gets your heart pumping and juices flowing. When change comes, it is always needed. Although it may feel like a catastrophe and something you never wanted, you’ll see why it happened all in time.
3. Be vulnerable
Vulnerability is the first step to courage and is the foundation of self-confidence. But who really wants to be put in a position where they feel they have no control over anything? It’s a difficult position to be in. It takes courage to put yourself out there and be vulnerable, but it is through these experiences that we grow and learn. When we are vulnerable, we are open to new possibilities and new ways of thinking. We also learn to trust ourselves and our abilities. Additionally, vulnerability can help us to build stronger relationships with others. When we share our authentic selves with others, we create opportunities for deeper connection and understanding.
2. Take the risk
You will never know unless you try. The most significant part of change is that when one door closes, it allows for the opening of others. Life will not leave you without options, but it is your job and choice to take advantage of them when they come. Change is never easy, but it is always necessary. Like energy, if things never changed, life would become stagnant, and the more we can adapt and flow in a state of non-attachment, the easier we can make it for ourselves.
And finally,
1. Be stuck
If you have exhausted all your efforts to move forward with your circumstance to no avail, it is time just to be stuck. Too often, we try to force things when we are bored or unsatisfied, which tends to cause more problems than there were, to begin with. If things aren’t manifesting, it might just be that the universe (you) needs the time to reorder itself and gather the energies required to elevate you onto your newly chosen path.
To keep the energies building for you on their highest possible course, place your disposition into a state of acceptance and gratitude. Take comfort in knowing that you are always exactly where you are supposed to be. You are the creator of your own universe. Embrace your power.
