ezine20090729_armstrong Do you ever feel like you’re driving on autopilot and your GPS stopped working, so you’re not sure where you’re headed? Are you wondering how to get in touch with your life purpose?

Stop looking! Your dream or life purpose is not somewhere “out there” – it’s inside of you. It’s already there. Look at your passions, your talents, and your natural gifts. What do you love to do, right from the bottom of your heart? What are you good at? And how can it benefit the people around you? Find a way to do it and share it.

Dreams and life purposes are about sharing, about what you can do for the world with your passions and talents. It’s doing, not looking. For instance, someone who liked to make quilts started connecting to others who liked to do the same thing and together they started a movement that provided security blankets for thousands of sick kids in hospitals.

Life tends to lead you in the right direction. Through the events, and people in your life, even the stumbling blocks, the Universe is providing you with a road map. Listen and pay attention. Then take action. Do something that feels right. As Dr. Martin Luther King said, “Take the first step in faith. You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.” And know that with each step taken, the next becomes apparent.

“Life is a journey”, points out Paul Agliata. “It is less about the people, places or things we want as our goal, and more about the feelings we are eager to experience.” His video explains it beautifully and talks about the importance of appreciation:

Don’t think about it too much. Dreams and life purposes are something that comes from the heart, not the mind. Follow your vision and your passion. Take action with all the excitement and energy and joy that you have in you. The outcome you desire with all your heart is yours.
Do what you really love… and you will be unstoppable.
