Congratulations!
You’ve already come a long way on your inner journey of living your
life purpose.
-
You identified your core life values - one of the most important
clues to your life purpose - and explored how they impact every
aspect of your life.
-
You learned about your personal boundaries - what they are, how
to strengthen them, and how to use them to honor and support your
life values.
-
You uncovered the clues you created for yourself and distilled
them into the essence of your life purpose.
The
next step is to transform all the mental, emotional, and spiritual
work you’ve done up to this point into physical reality. It’s not
going to do you or anyone else much good if all you do is think
about living your life purpose. Remember... your life purpose is
the work you chose to do this lifetime in order to be of service
to others. You can only be of service by moving into action and
actually doing the work of your life purpose.
Now
it’s time for you to begin the process of bringing the essence of
your life purpose from your inner world into your outer world by
creating your plan. Whether you’re creating a plan for your journey
into living your life purpose or a trip you’ve chosen for a vacation,
the process is the same:
-
First you do the research. For your vacation this might mean looking
at brochures, consulting a travel agent, or perusing travel magazines.
For the journey of living your life purpose, the research is to
identify the clues you left for yourself, such as your life values
and what you loved to do as a child.
-
Next, based on the findings of your research, you decide where
you want to go and what you want to do. For your inner journey,
this is the process of distilling the clues into the essence of
your life purpose.
-
Then you plan how you’re going to get there. This is where you
are now in the process of living your life purpose.
-
Finally, you step into action and go on your trip. This part of
your inner journey comes a bit later.
Every
journey - whether a business trip, a vacation, or the journey of
living your life purpose - is a unique experience. There are many
variables, some of which are chosen and some which are completely
unexpected. The route you take, the vehicles you choose, the time
you spend at each stop en route, and what you do when you arrive,
are just some of the variables that are a part of traveling. You
may choose a direct route for part of your journey. At other times
you may want a route that allows you to meander along and wander
wherever you feel drawn.
With
so many routes to get to any given destination, how do you know
which one is the best for you? During this chapter you’ll explore
several different planning systems and tools for your use as you
travel on your journey of living your life purpose.
The
Map Is Not the Territory
It
may all look good on paper, but when the time comes for you to actually
travel on your chosen path, your map may not look anything like
the territory. There may be detours, washouts, and potholes that
don’t show up on your map. Any of these can instantly rearrange
your carefully planned journey. As you continue past these challenges
you’ll find that they offer opportunities for you to gain greater
knowledge about your journey. Just as an unexpected turn of events
during a trip can lead to opportunities for learning more about
the people and places where you’re traveling, the unexpected experiences
you’ll have during your life purpose journey offer much wisdom to
smooth your journey ahead.
Flexibility
is a key concept to keep in mind, not only as you create your plans
but afterward, as you’re actually experiencing the implementation
of your plans. Know that no matter how careful you are in creating
your plans and how detailed they may be, life happens. We’ll go
into this further later when we delve into what stops you. For now,
simply understand that making a plan is important and that it’s
just as important to make allowances for the unexpected.
Back
Experience the journey of your life... An Inner Journey.
