Have you ever noticed time and time again that you have embarked on a new direction, only to see it fizzle or you become sidetracked, as you become aware of something, more enticing. You might wonder why, these seemingly wonderful gizmos, magic pills or 'quick fixes' come your way only to fizzle without warning. Then before you can come to grips with this disappointment another wonderful gizmo, magic pill or 'quick fix' comes to your awareness. It is a never ending cycle.
Are you wondering what to believe, what to do? The answer seems elusive and inexplicable. Many people chalk this phenomenon up to 'bad luck.'
There is an answer. These seemingly wonderful solutions to life's travail come from without. Media advertising—TV, radio, print, and coupons have become your main source to learn about the latest get rich, cure every ill or have easy solutions to difficult issues. The media caters to the advertisers, not the consumer. To make matters more difficult the media uses society's favorite sports figures and actors/actress as spokespersons. These 'heroes' are doing something we admire and we decide to be like them.
For many people most of their initial stimuli for the things they pursue come from without. Someone is doing something they admire and they decide to be just like them. So begins the pursuit of becoming someone else. While this is not true for all undertakings for most people, those who do are simply chasing fortune or status without consideration for who she/he is at the core of his/her being.
The soul's sole purpose for being here is for spiritual awakening to whom one truly is. One's unique self. The most wonderful success anyone can have is a connection with the gift of living one's life with gusto and using one's unique talents and gifts. Nothing is better in life than living as the person you truly are and using your unique skills, talents, and gifts.
An important question to ask yourself, "What do I like most about myself?" Many people answer that question with a plethora of adjectives—pretty, kind, generous, good sense of humor, etc. While these attributes are important, we need to go to a deeper and more expansive level. The ultimate in life is living it as you truly are. Living your life with grace, peace of mind, integrity and knowing that you are making a difference.
We all make strides in our desires for wealth and wonderful things. But when the clouds of doubt clears, only then will you realize that helping others achieve their dreams is one of the most profound keys for your success. When you accept and embrace this poignant truth, then you are free to reach deep within to find your greatest and most meaningful and gifted self. You might remember hearing, that when you can teach someone else what you have learned, you are a master. Therein, lies this poignant truth.
Your special qualities now stand prominent whereas before you could not see your special skills, talents and gifts.
What a joy to finally connect with who you really are and to know that no one on the planet can fulfill your unique destiny. Your search is over when you discover what is special and unique about you. What a joyous moment to think it was there all the time waiting for you to just believe.
The answer to life's questions lie inside you. All you need do is look, listen and trust.
