Why can’t you figure out what to do with your life? Books, blogs and gurus haven’t helped. Now what?
This Blog Has Six Parts
There are six different categories of articles in this blog. You can think of them as parts of the “what to do with my life” puzzle you may have struggled with. I’ve described them briefly below.
Your Life Purpose
If you’re like me in my former life, you don’t believe your life has a purpose. It doesn’t seem to make a lot of sense after all. For one thing, it sounds suspiciously like somebody’s already planned out your life. Leaving you to mindlessly follow it…..like a robot. To say the least, it isn’t obvious who’s written that plan either. All in all then, the idea of a “life purpose” doesn’t fly with most folks. But truth be told, everyone really does have a reason for being here. Your purpose and mine is to grow like a seed, eventually blossoming into a unique and mature human being. Essays in this category will explain why “growing the proper direction” is your Purpose in Life.
Passion Tests
Browse the net a bit and you’ll soon discover “passion tests”. They’re supposed to help you figure out who you are, by revealing something you’re drop-dead passionate about. Something you’d dedicate your life to doing…..even if you didn’t get paid for it. But all the tests in the world won’t help, and the reason is simple. Your passion is hidden inside and afraid to come out.
Unless you learn what’s holding back your true calling….and remove it…..you’ll never know what to do with your life. That brings us to my “passion tests”. They won’t help you find your heart’s true desires either. They’re not supposed to. Other parts of this blog do that. These tests are symptoms of a disease keeping you from growing “Your Way” to succeed beyond your wildest dreams. Read them slowly and examine yourself carefully. If you’ve got the symptoms, you’ve got the disease. But don’t despair. The whole point of any checkup is to find signs of sickness…..so you can heal yourself. This blog can help make you whole again.
Why You’ve Lost Your Bliss
This part of the puzzle is the most important. It explains why you haven’t got a real aim in life. Here you’ll discover a single fear that keeps ideas about who you are from you.
Take this fear away and your very own heartfelt dreams flow back into your life again. Learning how to do this is called “manifesting potential”. Yes it’s the same “manifesting” you hear self-help folks talking about, except for one thing. Removing this inhibiting fear from your life is the real deal. Once you know your heart’s desires again, you can turn to the gurus to help achieve them.
How To Find Your Dreams
Everything written in this section is about how to take away that fear I mentioned above. It really is the “how to” part of the blog. How to succeed in life. How to find what you’re looking for. How to become all you can become. How to be happy. Lots of “how to”.
Your Best Life
Think of these posts as carrots hung out in front of your nose. They describe facets of real, true-blue, authentic happiness you get by following the How To” advice above.
Things like self-esteem, a sense of purpose, authentic riches, and many, many more. Things you’ll receive by learning how to be yourself.
Who Wants to Change the World?
If you’re passionate about saving the environment, peace-on-earth, animal rights, human rights, or other “big missions” designed to make the world a better place, you’ll want to pay special attention to this part of the blog.
Why? You’ll learn that all these ills have one root cause. If this single seed of discontent isn’t dug out and exterminated, there is exactly ZERO chance your good efforts will succeed. In fact, the futility of trying to save the world without knowing the source of sickness is pretty much like this. Imagine you’ve come down with a bad bacteria bug that’s potentially fatal. You have the runs, a high temperature and throw up every five minutes. Doctors have drugs to keep you from going to the bathroom, bring your fever down and stop you from getting sick. But penicillin that would kill the bugs hasn’t been discovered yet. So there you are in the hospital surrounded by the finest physicians. They dope you up with all those drugs. And? Your runs subside. Your temperature goes down. You stop throwing up. Then you die. Same sort of thing with all those “big missions” trying to save Mother Earth and Mankind. Without getting to the root of our sickness….the band-aids won’t help us.
