Discovering your Passion and Purpose may be easier than you think. You can’t create it, because it is what you were created to do. Let’s go back to your birth. When you were born, your parents were open to anything and everything that came your way. You immediately began seeking to find the things in your life that was of special interest to you. If they gave you something that you did not like, you threw it down immediately. You could not speak, but you let them know, I don’t like that. And in your own way of communicating, you said to them, give me something else. Some things you gravitated to, and other things you did not, you had no interest in them. We began discovering our passion from day #1. Mom and Dad don’t know it, and you don’t either. As we continue to mature, we begin to find those comfort levels that says “I am here”. By the time we set , and begin to enjoy them as we choose our life careers. Everyone born has a purpose, so if you find people that tell you they have no purpose, it is because they have not sought to find it.
Many people today make it their mission to go out into the world and seek value and purpose in their lives. The problem is, most of them do not know where to start. Not knowing what your purpose is, can sometime be frustrating, but as you evaluate your gifts and talents and the things that motivates you, you are going in the right direction. Some people find their purpose early in life, and other a bit later. Whenever it happens, there are a few things you can do to know.
Have you ever looked at an object, and wondered what it was, what it does, or why someone would want it? Well, every thing created has some kind of purpose or value. This helps us stay focused in finding our true purpose.
The first thing you should do to find your purpose is to develop a relationship with God. Why? Because He created you. Get to know Him and He will give you direction and guidance for your life. Learn how to talk to God through prayer. Don’t be shy, just ask Him what His plans are for your life, and believe it when I tell you, that He will reveal it to you if you are listening.
You must be patient, and still to hear Him talk to you. So, when you are talking to Him, turn off any noise, and avoid distractions. One thing can have more value than the other, but it has a purpose for why it was created. Nothing creates itself, not even the world you live in, although it was created before you were born. When people realize that they have purpose in life, they are more motivated to stand up and make a difference. Your purpose gives you hope, joy and love for others. Everyone’s purpose is different, so there is no need to be jealous of someone else’s. Your purpose will influence your behavior, personality and relationships.

“Happy Birthday” to Me
What does the Word “Celebrate” mean anyway? Well, today it can mean almost anything. In my household growing up, we celebrated the big and the little things such as: 1) Loosing 5 lbs on a diet plan; 2) Passing a test, or making a good grade; 3) We even celebrated every Friday of the week that we arrived at work on time.
The Dictionary defines “Celebrate” as: to do something special or enjoyable for an important event, occasion, holiday, etc. So, you see you can celebrate an occasion anytime you want to, and surely you can do it alone. I run into so many people today that shares with me on their birthday, they did nothing, because they did not have anyone to do it with.
