Finding Your Purpose

As we get rolling on 2019 the goal setting is well under way, the resolutions are still in tact and the changes that you've promised to yourself many times are renewed telling yourself this time you're really going to do it. For some though, you might be feeling stuck, like you aren't really sure what your goals are for the year. The idea of goal setting and resolutions got me thinking about purpose. Often times we fail because we forget why the goal is important. Two quotes entered my mind around finding our purpose as we start 2019.
We don't get burned out because of what we do. We get burned out because we forget why we do it. Purpose keeps you fresh! - Jon Gordon

We are each created by God with a unique purpose to fulfill in this world. If it feels like you are just going through the motions and it is an unsettling feeling, that is because that is not who you were created to be. We aren't all going to be famous, manage companies, write a best seller or run for president. Purpose isn't something that is measured by societal exposure or impact, it is about understanding what your unique gift is that you can give to the world. It might be an anonymous act that sparks others to take action causing a rippling effect.

Whatever your purpose is my hope for 2019 is that you live it every day. If you don't know what your purpose is, then my hope for you is that you find it in 2019. That one achievement can unlock a lifetime of happiness, joy and success for you.
