Mindfulness Daily Check-In January 24, 2018
Nothing is a waste of time if you use the experience wisely. ~Rodin

Hi everyone I hope we all are doing good today. And if not hugz
A lot of us have been through a very terrible life, some lost many loved ones, some have a lot of major health/mental health issues, some have issues financually. We all have gone through our own "hell" right? Some times that really dents our vision/beleif in why am I here? What is my purpose in life? Well can you believe mindfulness can be 1 thing that helps you find this? Yes I'm telling you truth
The two greatest days of your life are the day you were born, and the day you find out what your purpose is, but if you dont know what your purpose is than you dont know why you are here, and it can be hard to keep going.
I struggled daily to figure out my purpose, but it wasnt until I took a step back and realized that my purpose isnt figure-outable from my head that I found a way to get there. I thought to myself, Maybe the problem isnt that I dont know what my purpose is; the problem is the way I am trying to find my purpose.
So how can Mindfulness help me find my purpose in life?
1. Take Some Action
You cant think your way into finding your life purpose you have to do your way into it.So instead of overthinking it on Will this work out? Should I try that? What if I dont like it? What if I dont make money at it? Start taking steps toward your goals and start trying new things. This will help you get out of your own way. I struggled for years trying to find out what my purpose was. This cycle only created a deeper lack of clarity. It wasnt until I started doing that things changed for me.
2.Think From Your Heart Not Your Head
Your heart is your best tool to access your true purpose and passion. Ask yourself what you love? Start taking steps to do what you love. When you are inspired and connected to your happy self, inspiration floods your heart and soul. When you lead from your heart, you are naturally more joyful and motivated to explore. By doing what you love, you will be inspired and gain insights into what brings you the most joy.
3.Break Up The "ONE"
Many of us struggle because we try to find that ONE thing that we are meant to do. But trying to find only one thing is the reason why we feel like something is missing. The notion that we have only one thing we are meant for limits us from fulfilling our greatness. Take me for example; I have six different job titles. Im a state medical caregiver, a budgeter, a cook, a vet, a teacher, a supporter, and each thing I do brings me joy, but none of these are my purpose, they are my passions. So start getting in touch with your passions! When you lead a passionate life you are living your life on purpose.
Passion + Daily Action = Purposeful Life
Consider that the real purpose of anyones life is to be fully involved in living. Try to be present for the journey and fully embrace it. Soon you will be oozing with passion, and you will feel so purposeful and fulfilled you will wonder how you lived life without it. Enjoy the journey into your own awesome life.

@RumpleSteeleSkin
Rumple, that looks so nice - you put a huge smile on my face. 😊
@RumpleSteeleSkin thanks for reminding us of the importance of finding our purposes in life. And they do change so letting go of old ones is part of mindfulness too. Yes this is something I need to keep looking at all the time.
@soulsings
HI Souls good to see you
Yes-letting go of old ones sometimes can be a challenge in itself. But I believe if you really notice what your passions are there lies the purpose
@RumpleSteeleSkin I think we agree. For me I choose my passionate choices as goals and it is easier to let go of old goals and just "follow my bliss"! [Joseph Campbell]
@soulsings
oh wow Souls I really do like this
@RumpleSteeleSkin wonderful!
@RumpleSteeleSkin
Such an amazing thoughtful thoughts Rumple. Loved it. Yay!!
I second with each and every word of yours.
And, I am looking forward to know your secret of creeating such awesome and lovely posts.My purpose defined clearly. I am ready to learn and explore. 
I sometimes think my purpose in life is to serve as a warning for others
@Longing4peace I think of it as everyone is my teacher and I am part of everyone else's teaching team.
I always told my daughter, "You can pick the easy way or you can pick the hard way. Either way you will learn but the easy way you learn from other people's suffering and the hard way you learn by suffering yourself.
If others are learning from your suffering then they are going the easy way. Good for you for helping them!
