Living Juiced = Living Your Purpose and Passion

Want to know the ‘secret’ to success?The secret to a life of fulfillment?

Being aware of, and living and sharing your purpose.

Yep, that’s it! Sound too simple?

Perhaps, but it’s amazing how simple it isn’t, and how many people don’t.

Deep down each and everyone of us has been given an intense yearning to live a life of purpose, to make a difference. Wanting to live a life of significance is a fundamental human need.

Yet all to often we take that job because ‘it’s a good one’, and it has ‘benefits’ and ‘job security’ and all of that stuff. We start a business because we are ‘good at ______’ or because ‘it will make a lot of money’.  Even if we start out passionate about that job or business, we lose sight of that ‘purpose’. We forget why we are here, or what our intention is.

Take some time to refocus on your ‘Why”. There are a zillion ways to make money, why do you do what you do?

As women, and more specifically as moms, we often lose sight of “Us’ to. Me becomes Mom-me and whether we choose to stay home, or work, the focus is rarely on fulfilling our hearts desire. Perhaps you believe that your purpose IS raising and teaching your children. That is great if it is, but do you feel fulfilled?

Do you have an empty space in your heart, or ‘gut’ that is gnawing at you?

Ask your self, “If I could do anything in the world, and money and time were no object, what would it be?”

You might think it would be vacation, golf, or travel, but once the novelty was over, you would want to do something! Perhaps it IS golf or travel. If that passion is deep within you, start asking yourself “how can I? How can use this innate passion to serve the world in some way?”

It’s been given to you for a reason. Now, it’s up to you to discover it.

Go do it! :)

What is YOUR purpose? Passion? I’d love to hear about it!
