Finding Our True North

How do we uncover our true purpose in life? How can we tell for sure, that we are right where we’re meant to be… doing what we’re supposed to be doing? And how do we know that we KNOW… that we're on track to be the best that we can be for ourselves and others?
Having grappled with these questions for years, and recognizing them as top-of-mind for the everyday people I come in contact with… makes it a fitting focus for this blog.
I have spent a lot of time trying to figure it out: gleaning from the experiences of life mentors, studying the lifestyles of those labeled  ‘admirable’, dissecting the strategies of those deemed ‘successful’... I could go on and on. I have come to the conclusion that while there may not be one formula per se, there appears to be at least one proven method to the madness! 
By asking myself some basic and rather candid questions, I have uncovered a great deal about myself, have made some revealing connections between my past, present and future realities and ultimately, have garnered a measure of respect and confidence in who I am. 
Today, I am better positioned to focus and energize myself in the areas that matter the most to me.
What are these illusive questions you might ask?
My Gift -  What am I good at?  What are my innate talents? Where is my power? 
My Joy - What energizes me and makes me happy? What gives my life meaning and true fulfillment?
My Passion - Who am I? What comes naturally to me? What would I do forever - for FREE?
Ultimately - Am I effectively engaging my gifts, my joys and my passions for good?
We all have the potential to accomplish something great.  The simple question is -- HOW DO WE KNOW WHAT THAT THING IS? And once we figure it out,  HOW DO WE MAKE IT HAPPEN? 
Let’s travel the course of self-discovery together. Get in on the conversations as we explore the journeys of others that have succeeded in figuring how to be best that they can be.

My thoughts on this .. If you buy a BluRay player of microwave it comes with an accompanying manual (after all, who other than the maker or manufacturer would know the optimum use of the item), right?

Same thing goes for us, and it has certainly been my experience that the one One who would know what your true purpose is, and the optimum use of you and all your gifts, is God. Not a very popular idea perhaps, but true.
