How to know what your Purpose in life is by Joe Benjamin

Jan. 11, 2011 - PRLog -- http://www.JoeBenjamin.info  What I call your life’s purpose is your life assignment, maximum potential and that rewarding thing that gives you fulfilment. The real reason why you were beautifully created!  This is your destiny and dream. Your purpose in life is tied to your passion and gifting.  For you to be the best in what you do in every facet of your life, you need to identify your true calling, your strengths and what you love to do. It is a sad thing that many times our natural abilities and talents always go unused. It’s really a waste, if you get to the end of your life and you haven’t done what you were born to do.

Look at yourself and ask yourself, what was I born to do? What contribution can you make to the world with your gift? Remember give and you will receive, when you give your gift to the world you will receive. You can get everything you want in life if you can help enough people get what they want. I believe that one of my gifts is to make people realise who they are and what they can give from their gifts to the world and make a living with it.

Here are a few questions you can ask today to identify your purpose.

- Ask yourself, what do I love to do?
Separate what you like and what you LOVE!

- Look back in your life as a child. What did you always want to be?
Many times it happens that as you grow up, the cares and needs of this life makes you lose your purpose. Revisit your childhood dreams.

- What are your natural strengths? What are you good at?
Every person is different. So what is that thing that makes you unique or stand out from the crowd.

- Ask your friends and family, what they think you are good at.
Usually they are really honest about things!

- When was it that you were last thanked or appreciated?
If you haven’t recently been thanked for anything, you are NOT  walking in your purpose.

- What problems frustrate you in the society?
Think about it this way, if there is something you had the power to change what would it be? What is that thing you can’t stand?

I have many tests and questions I use, whenever I am coaching my private clients. If you still could not find an inclination to your purpose with these questions, get in touch with my office for an in-depth personal assessment. I know you may be asking, now that I know what my passion is, what next. When you know your PURPOSE, you then need to add skills and knowledge and practice to your talents and gifts. This way you will be the very best in what you do.

Start doing what you were born to do from today and the first step can be getting a mentor or hiring a coach. There is power in your purpose! There are pounds in your purpose! There is profit in your purpose. There is problem solving in your purpose! There is praise in your purpose. There is providence in your purpose. Find you purpose today! http://www.JoeBenjamin.info
