Do You Know Your Why?

Share

Your Why is the reason you want to live your passion

Knowing Your Why Matters!

Have you ever felt like you’re making no real progress with your passion, like you aren’t gaining traction, or you just don’t see the results you hoped for?

I have. I used to feel that way a lot!

So what’s the deal? If we love what we’re doing, and we work hard, we should realize awesome results. Right?

You’d think so. But as you know, that’s not always the case. Sometimes we’re working hard…but not doing the things that truly matter. Sometimes we’re doing the things that matter but we’re inconsistent in our efforts. Sometimes we work hard for weeks or months and then lose our drive and momentum. Sometimes we get distracted by something else that seems really, really shiny. We think it’ll help up reach our dream faster but in reality it just pulls us off course because it takes time, energy, and effort away from our dream.

The problem is any of these can slow, stall, or completely derail our dreams!

It’s easy to get overwhelmed and even lose momentum when you’re working toward living your passion. The key is to truly understand your ‘why’. Your ‘why’ is the reason you want to live your passion. Your ‘why’ is what gives you that extra push when things are tough. Your ‘why’ is what you’ll gain by living your passion.

Once I really figured out my ‘why’ I started realizing amazing results!

I used to think my passion and my ‘why’ were the same. So I thought I knew my ‘why’. I was good. No need to do anything extra in that area, Right?

Wrong.

I discovered that my ‘why’ and my passion aren’t the same, not exactly. I discovered that knowing my passion wasn’t always enough to keep me focused. So I kept experiencing slowdowns on my path to living my passion.

Have you ever experienced slowdowns on your path toward living your dreams?

Then you know how frustrating it is!

Once I understood the difference between my ‘why’ and my passion, I got clear on my ‘why’. My passion is helping people create lasting change and better lives for themselves and those around them, empowering others through speaking and writing. My ‘why’ is the feeling I get from helping others—doing as much good in the world as I can—and a huge part of my ‘why’ is having time for my family, being my own boss, and the ability to do what I want, when I want.

My passion is what I love doing. My ‘why’ is what I personally get from doing my passion.

Did you just have an ah-ha moment?

You understand that knowing your passion is critical to your success. Knowing your ‘why’ is critical to creating the momentum necessary to live your passion.

 

I’m still working toward living my passion full time. And I’m getting closer every day! Since I’ve discovered the difference between my passion and my ‘why’, my results have been astounding! It’s like the Universe is lining up people and events to help me on the path to my dreams!

Discover Your Why

How can You Discover Your Why?

A good place to start is by imagining your perfect day because your perfect day will be full of things and people you love. These are clues to your ‘why’.

Read the following questions to prime your mind, then imagine your perfect day.

 

What happens during your perfect day?

What are you doing?

Who are you with?

Where are you?

What are the sights, the sounds, the scents, the textures?

What feeling does your perfect day evoke?

 

Now that you’ve got your perfect day in mind, answer these questions:

What opportunities will living my passion give me?

What can I do when I’m living my passion that I’m unable to do now?

What excites me the most about living my passion?

 

These answers are Your Why. They’re the reasons you want to live your passion. They’re the things that’ll keep you going when things are tough.

Think about your ‘why’ daily. Think about your why when you run into resistance on the path to your goals and dreams. Remember the reasons you’re working to live your passion.

To help you keep your ‘why’ in mind, I’ve created a downloadable worksheet for you. Download it, fill it out, and review it daily.

 

Always Remember:

You Are The Master of Your Destiny!

How do I Know What to Change?

Share

 

Please enjoy this excerpt, ‘How Do I Know What to Change?’ from my book, Break Your Mold: The Art of Overcoming Patterns and Behaviors That Hold You Back.

Chapter 1

How do I know what to change?

How do I know What to Change?

Does that question keep you up nights? You’re unhappy, unsatisfied, or downright miserable with something about your life. You know something’s got to change, but you don’t know what…

You might think the answer to “What should I change?” would be easy. If you’re overweight or out of shape you can see what must change. If you’re financially broke you “know” you need more money. Physical problems are tangible, measurable.

But What About the Root Cause of the Problems?

Physical problems are often symptoms of something else. If it was as simple as saying, “I’d better get in shape.” Or, “I’d better make more money” than more people would easily overcome their problems.

That’s bad enough. But what if you don’t know what has to change. You just know something is missing. Maybe you desperately want a better life but don’t know how to find it.

You might wonder how to change your life. Or you’ve made changes but don’t know how to make them last. You might even know exactly what’s got to change but deep down, you’re afraid you’ll fail, you’re afraid of what you must face, or the pain of changing… You might even be afraid you’ll succeed because even though you think you want something better, you’re comfortable with your life.

So you never try.

Change can be scary and overwhelming. It’s like looking at a 1000 piece puzzle scattered on the floor. From a distance all the pieces seem identical. It’s easy to look at the mess of pieces and think, “I’ll never figure this out!”

Many people turn away at that point because trying to figure things out seems impossible. But the truth is this, Impossible is almost always in your mind. Some people look at the mess and think, Wow… this really sucks! I’d better get started. But then they take action.

They find the border pieces and fit them together. When that’s done they start building from there. They might not know what they’re doing or how to get where they want to go, but they keep at it. Instead of thinking of the puzzle as an impossible mess, they focus on finding the next piece. Soon the missing pieces fall into place and the puzzle takes shape.

Before they know it, they’ve finished! But the person who said, “I’ll never figure this out.” is still staring at the pile thinking it’s impossible…

The main difference between those who overcome life challenges and those who don’t is the ability to take action despite fear. When you don’t know the solution to something, it’s easy to feel fear or overwhelm. Fear stops many people from trying. They don’t know what to do…so they put it off or worse, they give up.

Giving up guarantees you'll never succeed.

There’s One Thing About Giving Up. It Guarantees You’ll Never Succeed.

Makes sense right? How can you succeed if you quit?

Those who work the puzzle anyway recreate themselves and change their lives.

Why?

They persevere and take action. That’s why.

Remember this; Imperfect Action always Beats Perfect Inaction. When you fail to start because you fear failure you ensure you won’t succeed.

But we’ll come back to that later.

As you realize, you must do something to get results. But first you must know the results you want. What direction should you point yourself? After all, does walking south help when your destination is north?

No!

So figure out where you’re headed and remember to aim high! If you aim low you might hit it, but will that really create the life you want?

Once you know where you’re going you’ll identify things that interfere with your journey. Those are things you must change.

How do you do that? I’m glad you asked.

Let’s start with a simple exercise. For the next two minutes, think about your perfect life. Imagine your life if nothing held you back, if all your dreams came true.

Got it?

Good. Now answer the following questions: (Download the My Perfect Life Worksheets from the link Below to Do the Exercises)

(If you truly want to change your life, It’s important that you do all of the activities in this book. The print version of Break Your Mold has places for you to write directly in the book. Since this is the electronic version, that isn’t an option. Instead, you can use a journal, a notebook, the downloadable worksheets, or even get your own copy of the Break Your Mold Workbook.)

What is A Life by Design?

Share

Life by Design

What is a Life by Design?

A Life by Design is a life that’s consciously shaped, a life where you decide where you’re going, who you want to be, and then you make it happen.

Many people live like marionettes. They let society, peers, work, addictions, history, and many other factors pull the strings of their lives. They never try to shape their lives because they learned to believe they have no control over their destiny. Since they believe it, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. They become cause and effect mechanisms, living in a reactionary state instead of a proactive state.

How can you live in a reactionary state and consciously shape your life?

The truth is, we are all masters of our destiny. We all have the power to choose the meaning we give the events in our lives. The meaning we give things shapes us and shapes our lives because it’s our personal reality. Our personal reality shapes the thoughts we have, the choices we make, and the actions we take. That shapes our destiny.

Some people would rather let other things—people, events, chemicals, society, their personal history—design their lives. They’d rather sit back and say, “It’s not my fault. Look at everything that’s happened to me. That’s what caused me to be how I am.”

But not you!

You’re reading this. That means you’re working to consciously create your life. You believe you can shape your destiny!

Every Day is another chance...

One of the first things I learned when I started on the path of personal transformation was that I needed to have an idea of who I wanted to become. So I spent a few days writing a personal blueprint, a master design for my life. Then I read that to myself every morning and night. I read it out loud and focused on how I’d feel when it was reality.

In time I discovered that I was becoming the person I wanted to be. I still have areas I’m working on. I still make mistakes. And in truth, as I step up to every new level of awareness, I discover ways I can continue to be a better person. Then I take those lessons, learn from them, and grow.

A Life by Design is a process. It’s a journey of evaluating where you are and growing to where you want to be. Then reaching your goal and discovering how much more you’re capable of. Yes, it’s work. Yes, it can be uncomfortable. And it’s a wonderfully fulfilling process!

To help you start creating your Life by Design, download these free worksheets now and begin creating your personal blueprint.

http://bit.ly/BigPictureWorksheets

http://bit.ly/TraitsListWorksheets

Download both sets. Fill them out in the present tense, as if you’re already the person you describe and as if you already have the things you desire. Then read them every morning and night and you’re on your way to a Life by Design!

You Are The Master of Your Destiny!

What Sings to Your Soul?

What Sings to Your Soul?

What sings to your soul?

Do you know the gift God gave you to share with the world? It might be the ability to lift some-one’s day when they’re down. Perhaps it’s creating music that touches people deep in their hearts or penning words that mend hearts and create bridges of healing over pain…

Whatever it is, when you find it, nurture it, believe in it, and share it. Things we hoard never produce joy. But the smallest planted seed can, in time, produce a forest or a meadow full of flowers.

Share your gifts. In sharing you grow.

I used to think life was about the destination. I hurried to get where I thought I must be. Living that way wasn’t living. The days blurred past with no meaning.
I’m no longer in a hurry to reach tomorrow.

Yes, there are things I’d love to change about today, but I live each day as it comes. I experience each day. The days of my life are no longer merely stepping stones to the future, they are life! The point of any journey is who we become and what we learn while traveling it.

Infinite possibility lies before us.

I believe in you!

Excerpt From The Pi of Life

What Does it Mean?

When you discover the things that sing to your soul, you’ve discovered the keys to your purpose, your path. The things that fill you with joy, that you’d do just because you love them, are your gifts. Explore them and ask how you can use them to help others. Doing this ignites creativity and passion in ways that will astound you.

The gifts we’re given aren’t meant for hoarding. They are meant to be shared, to help others, and to make the world a better place.

As you approach this moment, this gift of time, make the choice to share your gifts. Not all will appreciate them. Not all will care. Some might even call you crazy.

So What? Do what you do from a place of love and ignore those who don’t understand.

I challenge you today to start using your gifts to help others. If you don’t know what your gifts are then you can download my Discover Your Passion worksheet, figure out what they are, and then start using them!

You Are The Master of Your Destiny!
