Letter 46 - Do You Know What Yours Is???

Hello Bregdan Woman!

I talk to so many women who struggle with their purpose – and with discovering what it is. Some of them are young, some of them are middle-aged, and some are in their 80’s (or older). If you are struggling with what your purpose is, you are NOT alone!

Each time a new year rolls around, or when you have a birthday, resolutions are made. That’s fine, but I think it’s far more important to simply resolve to live each day fulfilling your PURPOSE.

But what if you don’t know it?

Purpose. So many people struggle to know what theirs is. Purpose is the why – why you are here. It’s knowing what your special calling in life is. Your purpose is what makes you unique – the special gifts and abilities you were born with and can contribute to the world.

Young or old – it can be tough to know what your purpose is. But it may be the most important thing you discover about yourself. I believe your lasting happiness depends on it. Knowing your purpose will fuel your efforts and give you the drive to keep pressing on, no matter the challenges you face.

Some people think you can’t know your purpose when you are young, or they think if they’re older that it’s too late for it to make any difference. Nonsense! It’s never too late to live the best life you can live. It’s never too late to live with the feeling you are fulfilling your destiny.

Here’s a thought to wrap your brain around: Everyone dies, but not everyone really lives.

Too many people flounder through life – waiting, hoping the moment will come when their purpose becomes clear. In the meantime, they simply go through the motions of living, never experiencing the exciting spark of aliveness that comes from knowing their purpose.

What about you?

Do you know why you’re here?

Do you wake up every day, excited about your life?

If you don’t, you’re not alone, but I believe you can change that. Finding your purpose is a process requiring self-reflection and patience. It seems unfair that you don’t just KNOW why you are here, but life is not always fair (surprise, surprise!).

Here’s the first thing I want you to do. Whether you do it is totally up to you!

What would a Bregdan Woman do?

Pull out a sheet of paper and write, “How I Want to Be Remembered.” Then add some columns: Friends; Spouse; Children; Co-Workers; Community; the World. If you go to church, belong to a team, or another special group, add them in.

Now…List all the qualities, deeds, and characteristics you would like to be remembered for. It’s not too late…

When you have done that, go back. Find the pattern that shows you your highest values. Discover what drives you. Determine your purpose.

Women ask me, “Once I determine my purpose, does that mean I quit whatever I’m doing to pursue that?”

Maybe. Maybe not.

I never tell women what I think they should do. Each woman has to make their decisions about how they live their life.

Yes, that means YOU.

The important thing is to spend enough time with yourself to learn your purpose, and then make your decisions around that knowledge.

It’s also important to realize that your Purpose can change. Your purpose at 60 might not be the same purpose at 25. And it may change again at 75… or at ANY age. Don’t stick yourself in a box.

Life changes… YOU change… your PURPOSE changes…

But whether or not it changes, I believe all of us should be able to wake up every day with the excitement of PURPOSE.

I’m staying on this topic tomorrow - answering an important question. What if the Gurus are wrong?

A young lady taught me a lesson that is vital for all Bregdan Women!
