In many of the readings I do, my clients ask me what their life purpose is. It’s one of my favorite questions because, really, who doesn’t want to know why they incarnated!
But sometimes people fear they have no purpose. So I want to explain what I’ve encountered so you get a better understanding of this thing we call “the life purpose.”
I have found after reading for thousands of people that some people incarnate with a specific purpose, and it’s practically encoded in your DNA. Growing up you’ll have a strong inkling or predilection for achieving your directive. Everything you attract into your life will support the drive towards this purpose. So much so that once you achieve it you’ll look back on life and say things like, “Yes, I always knew I was going to be a ….” Or “It never once occurred to me that I wouldn’t achieve this goal. I’ve just always known.”
Drive. Passion. Talent. Skill. Opportunities. It will be like heaven and earth aligned perfectly and you achieved your goal.
And that’s great. I see this with folks who are teachers, healers, communicators, scientists. There’s an unstoppable energy, like a stampede, towards a goal. Not only are they capable of achieving it, they’ve also seemingly “lucked out” in some way and been propelled towards their goal at light speed. That’s because the universe, their higher self, and their guides are all behind them pulling strings and getting things done.
But what if you aren’t one of these people? What if you’ve been drifting, passionless, unable to even figure out what you want to do or even what you’re good at. You squeak by, you try lots of different jobs and nothing excites you. You fail a lot. You meander. Your life is sometimes up and sometimes down. You’re just wandering through life, unknowing of your purpose, no drive and seemingly no opportunities.
Well guess what? You have a life purpose too.
Life is meant to be experienced. You’re here to have fun and explore. Your job is actually to simply be happy. It’s society and convention that drill into you that you have to find a career, settle down, have passion and drive. We’re taught it’s the only way to succeed.
But the truth is that some souls incarnate simply to play in the sandbox of life. They’re not here specifically to have an impact or change the course of the world. They’re here to experience life. To share, to learn, to grow. And honestly, that’s purpose enough.
Do not let society judge you. And don’t judge yourself.
Yes, some people decided to incarnate to have an impact, to change the world, to get their hands very dirty. Let them. Sit back with your bucket and shovel and just play in the sand. Along the way you will learn, grow, and experience. And your life will be just as purposeful as anyone’s.
Put joy, love and compassion into the world. Share the journey. Do what you enjoy. Drift from one joy to another. Don’t hurt other people.
Make your own personal castle in the sand. And if the wind or the water knock it down, build another.
Whether you came here for some grand purpose or to simply experience what life has to offer, you are an important and valuable piece of the greater puzzle.
