Why Do We Need To Examine Our Lives?

you grow into_5209Finding personal fulfillment by exploring all aspects of your self helps you to peel more layers off the onion on this perpetual voyage toward your true self.

It is in the journey that you find the richness. “Who you are” is not a destination, but an evolving, expanding, maturing of you now, in this moment. It is something to grow with and into throughout your life. You grow into who you truly are.

The most important thing is that you examine, and fall in love with, your life. And you will, as you feel more in alignment with the creative energy that produced you and wants you to experience the metamorphosis of your personal shining soul purpose, a life of passion and love.

Part of the reason I continually do so much personal and professional development work is because I always want to be stepping up and into my true purpose, my true self in bigger and more authentic ways.

Because this process isn’t just an epiphany of “Aha! There’s my life purpose in minute detail,” we have to continually work at it. Sure, we have aha moments – that is how we do grow and change. But we have to fall in love with the journey.

It’s the interplay of life, looking at times  like chaos and at other times like peace, that we must adjust to.  There are times when the journey feels nuts! Like you don’t have enough hours in the day or organization to sort out the craziness. That is a gift. (Am I hearing a groan?) But it is! It is a thing to reflect on. Why is your life like that? What can you change so that it becomes easier, smoother, more peaceful? We can’t ensure that it is 100% peaceful and 0% chaos all the time, but we can certainly keep moving toward it. Some people thrive in a fast-paced life. Others do better when things move at a slower pace. So, which is it for you?

Something I learned a while ago, and am still finding ways to tweak, is that life isn’t happening to us, we’re creating this life, this flow. The bottom line: if it’s not examined, it can’t change, and it isn’t seen.

Seeing yourself in your own life is part of an examined life. We don’t always have to be doing – though it’s our inclination. When I say always growing and examining, I mean simply seeing what is going on inside of you by

  • looking at causes instead of just effects
  • identifying emotions and where they come from
  • making decisions about what you want, who and where you want to be
  • staying open to receiving
  • watching for opportunities
  • noticing the desire to BE more
  • surrendering when you don’t know the answers but
  • trusting they will come forward.

So, an examined life is part discovery, part surrender, part receiving, part action.

Stay with the intention to find your purpose. Ask the universe to recognize your unique abilities and put them to the best use possible for the highest good, for your best health, wealth and happiness, and that of the world. Keep a success mindset, a healthy dose of optimism and live life on your own terms – once you know what those are! And knowing what all of that is comes from examining your life.

And, by the way, keep on watching!
