Begin Living Your Life's Purpose Today

7/12/2016

Many people keep asking what they came to this world for. We all have a need to feel fulfilled and on purpose; we want to feel our lives are not by accident and that there is a bigger plan than what we are living and seeing now.

But when and where do you begin living your life’s purpose? You begin today right where you are.

Types of Perfection

Before I go any further I want to begin with making sure you understand the two types of perfection that exist, according to the Kabbalah, and which perfection type we should strive for when looking to fulfill our lives.

I don’t want you to get too caught up in trying to have the perfect way to fulfill your intention in this life, that is because nothing and no one is perfect.

Static Perfection. Static perfection doesn’t change. God and all angelic and light beings that are not experiencing a physical life are part of this perfection..
Dynamic Perfection. Dynamic perfection is perfection through change. Just like water is perfect through all its changing states, liquid, solid, vapor, so are our lives perfect in all states. This perfection is always changing and not because of it is less than perfect, on the contrary. Perfection is achieved through change, through a journey of self-discovery. All physical beings belong in this category.

So, when you think that you want to have the perfect position, the perfect business, the perfect life, remember that the only true and real perfection is the one that changes. Wanting to be perfect without change is like trying to become the very opposite of our nature; it is a recipe for disaster and dissatisfaction.

Begin today

You can begin living your life’s purpose today. Begin by doing all you can do right there where you are. Begin looking for ideas; begin by being more than what you are right now. No one advances in life unless they are more than they currently are, unless they master their position, their occupation.

Are you doing more than required in your position, business, school, home? You’ve heard that you need to dress, act, do and behave according to the higher position you want, right? Well, the same applies for when you are planning for your life’s purpose. Unless you do your current job better than it should be done, you won’t be ready for the next step.

Do you like what you do now?

Be more you. Begin adding your flavor to what you do, to how you behave, to who you are.
Trust life more. Trust that you are going somewhere and that you are living your purpose already.
Enjoy your days. You have no idea how much you are going to inspire other people who are looking at you. We are all looking for people that love what they do and are not afraid to be who they are; people who trust life and can’t wait to get enough of it. Keep doing this. We need you to keep doing this.

Don’t like what you do?

Find another job. Thank God we live in a free country and we are free to go wherever we want. Do not ever think that you have given so much to a company and that you are not getting anything in return. Companies don’t owe anything to anyone and you don't owe anything to companies. You provide a service and they pay you for it. It's only an exchange of energy.
Follow your interest. Do what interests you, what your soul guides you to. What are some of the things you already do that would like to do more of? Keep asking yourself these type of questions and do the things that interest you more often.
Change your perception. Try to see where you are right now as a training course, a preparation for the next step. Nothing is by accident and one day you'll realize why you decided to get this job, to start this business, to study this major. For now see it just like those in college; there are some courses you might not enjoy but you need to take them anyways to complete the degree you want. As long as you think this way, you will have no problem moving closer to your purpose and fulfilling your life’s intention.
If you have a business, give it a twist. Personalize your business by implementing more things you like, make it more enjoyable, make it more you. Giving more value than what you are receiving payment is for sure a way to make you feel good and generous. You could be kinder than usual, give a discount, provide extra information, etc. Remember, by giving more you receive more.

When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be” –Lao Tzu

Planning ahead

I am not suggesting that you quit your job or close your business or switch careers or move to another town right now. You can certainly do any or all of these but only when you feel certain and secure of the step you are taking.

I don’t want you to leave your current financial security to go in pursue of your purpose. Doing this very thing can actually bring you further away from what you are looking for since you will be focusing again on how you’re going to pay your life expenses. You will be trying to stabilize your quality of life and will not be able to focus on your needs to grow and transform.

I want you to be prepared. Set up a plan and make sure it is something you really want to do. Do you need to do some research? Take same training? Learn more about a new topic? Do so and then take the leap. Are you ready to make a change now? Go ahead, just make sure your footing is firm before taking the next step.

Live life as if everything is rigged in your favor” –Rumi

Don’t get desperate to complete your goals, to fulfill your life’s intention, to live all your life now. I was like this soon after I accepted my intention for this life until I remembered that there is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heavens. Besides where’s the fun in having everything completed now?

Have fun in the process. Enjoy every step. Take a look at yourself and see how you are changing, evolving, growing. Seeing yourself grow is a feeling like nothing else in this life, a feeling you don’t want to miss for sure, trust me.

I'm glad you loved it Dionna! Through this definition we can see that all the changes we've lived are perfect just because they were changes. Lovely isn't it? Take care ;)

I love the simple but important insight that living your life's purpose begins right where we are - right now.

A beautiful reminder to enjoy the process. My life's purpose is to teach women to live gloriously healthy lives and I can fall into the trap of thinking I am not the perfect example of that. Your post really helps me to see that we are all in the process of change and as long as I keep walking forward I am living my life's purpose.

7/13/2016 10:02:44 am

I'm so glad you were able to see that in this post Rachel. Thank you for letting me know :)

Wow, Claudia - the concept of Dynamic Perfection hit me right in the gut. The very idea that we are on a refining journey, and that each step in that journey through change is divinely inspired - rather than a "mistake" - is so powerful. I love the difference between this and striving for perfection: the gentle evolving of Self into exactly what we came here to be.

7/14/2016 02:16:08 pm

Yes, we are on a refining journey and doesn't need to be perfect... we just need to keep living the journey. Thank you Kat ;)

I especially liked this part. "Don’t get desperate to complete your goals, to fulfill your life’s intention, to live all your life now.". On occassion I struggle with how much of my life I wasted but usually sense kicks in and reminds me that I was learning some hard lessons during what I feel was wasted time and hopefully I will be able to use that to help others

7/14/2016 02:23:06 pm

Nothing is ever wasted, Sabra. How would you be able to teach others if you don't get the lesson? When the time is right you will begin helping others. Best wishes for you <3

I love this! This is so what I needed right now! I've always been a perfectionist & have struggled with harnessing that. This is great...thanks!

7/14/2016 02:25:28 pm

I understand exactly what you're saying Alea. I'm also a perfectionist and knowing about dynamic perfection has been a life saver for me. Thank you ;)

I love the idea of planning ahead. Day to day life gets so busy and overwhelming. To pause and be thoughtful is so important.

7/14/2016 02:42:47 pm

Yes, it is very important to know where we are going and to plan our next steps. How else can we know we have reached our destination if we don't know where we are going, right?. Thank you Alison :)

Great article! As a cake decorator I struggle with being a perfectionist! Sad part is that most people don't even see the imperfections that I see lol. I enjoyed reading this!

I believe we need to a little less obsessed with perfection and focus on what really matters and it important to us.

Yes! I believe we all know this at some level but for some reason most people don't know where to begin. I hope my writing helps them see possible options at least..

In this day and age its hard not to feel like you're not doing enough or that you're failing, or that compared to the next person you're doing nothing. I have waves of these feelings, and its hard to stop feeling like that. You've listed some great reminders, I really need to come back often to re-read them!

One day we, as a human race, are going to realize that comparing ourselves to others is never a fair game. Thank you Nazrin.

It's definitely not as easy as leaving your job or moving away,sometimes it takes careful consideration and not just about you. It can affect other people so it isn't that easy. But I agree on what to focus on, but often it is more than your opinion that needs to be considered.

7/14/2016 03:16:03 pm

You are right. There's usually another person's opinion involved in our decision process. But if that person is supportive and really cares for our well being, we should be able to move forward with what brings joy to our soul. Don't try to make big changes at first, small steps are ok... just make sure you're always walking. Best wishes ;)
