ON PURPOSE
by: Mark Thompson

What do you consider a natural yearning within you? I would
jump out on a limb to say that your answer to that question
would be the same answer that a great number of people on
this planet would have. Let's think about what drives people.

What changes their behavior to achieve a deep rooted goal?
What are the things that people chase for a lifetime
(sometimes)? What is it that you could get excited about
and see yourself doing for the rest of your life?

Is it to earn a ton of money? Is it to serve your fellow man
in a very unique way? Is it to love your family as much as
humanly possible - to take care of them like no one else can?
What is the Natural Yearning of the Human Spirit?

All of the above probing questions can be answered by this
one fact. 

Take any group of people who have made seemingly automatic
transformations in their lives and analyze the common
factors. Among them would be a sense of purpose. 

Purpose is a driving force that propels an individual to
stay up late and get up early. 

Purpose is the food that feeds the natural yearning of the
human spirit.

Purpose is a deep thirst for an individual's accomplishment.
Not only for accomplishment but for meaning - a meaning that
seems to pull, push, guide and lift one out of any situation
or circumstance that is not consistent with the definition of
his or her goals and, more importantly, who he or she is not.

If you don’t have a purpose written out for your life, your
missing out on a very key tool for living success.

Writing down your life purpose is a great way to review why
you’re doing what you’re doing and consistently stay focused. 

Your Purpose should be written with positive potential
poised and positioned as a predictable probability.

In other words:

1.  Spend at least 20 minutes in a quiet place relaxed and 
     focus on what your purpose is.

2.  Write your purpose.

3.  Don’t try and make it a perfect purpose/goal.
   
None of us are perfect and there’s no sense setting
   
yourself up for a fall.

4.  Make it a concrete purpose.

5.  Make your purpose attainable. 

6.  Take at least 1 step each day to fulfill your purpose.

Remember, this is your life’s purpose. This is what you’re
about. There is no other person that can or will realize your
purpose like you will. 

Your purpose can and probably will change in some degree each
year. Do an annual audit and see if your written purpose needs
a revision. It may. That's okay. It's your purpose. 

Make it worthwhile and make it yours.

Give it 100% every day.

Note: Review your purpose on a daily basis for the first 3
weeks after writing it. Beyond that, review it once a week. 

Spend time writing your purpose. Focus in a quiet place for
at least 20 minutes before writing anything. This is important.

Also, when writing your purpose, it can be as long or as
short as you want it.

The main thing is to actually write it down.
A great guide and more in depth reading on purpose is in the
book Forward-Living: Your Formula For Living and Loving Life.

Get it, read it and live it:

Enjoy your newly acquired purposeful life!

Until next time keep looking and living forward.
