The Power of realising your purpose

By Timothy Mutizwa

It is the nature of life that negative things come and sometimes they pull you down leaving you discouraged and hopeless. The majority will start to dance according to the tune focusing on the torrential and then leave their life goals undone. One should know that bad things do happen but how you respond to them defines your character and the quality of your life. Therefore, the rationale of this article is for someone to understand the hidden power in knowing your life purpose.

First and foremost, one should have a clear and heartfelt purpose. It is widely believed that winners are people with a definite purpose in life. If you have an unambiguous purpose you won’t have time for negativity. Just know that within you right now is the power to do things you never dreamed possible. This power becomes possible to you just as soon as you can make your purpose clear. Therefore, if you have a plain purpose in life success is inevitable.

Furthermore, one should focus on the goal than the challenge. This law of life is undeniable in that problems arise when conditions are there for their solution. Keep it simple. Don’t make things difficult by complicating them. Identify an opportunity in your challenge to make things happen.

Believe in yourself. Someone’s opinion of you does not have to become your reality. You were born original don’t die a copy. A bird sitting on a tree is never afraid of the branch breaking just because its faith is not on the branch but on its own wings. A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of the overwhelming obstacles. It is not about your intelligence but it is all about your mentality, if it was then Einstein would have been the wealthiest in the world. What matters in the world is how you think so you should believe in yourself.

Failures are fingerposts on the road to victory. Successful people go from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm. For a gallant spirit, there can never be a defeat. Failure is just the First Attempt In Learning. Start by talking to every successful person you know or meet and ask them how they achieved their goal. You shall realize the bitter waters that they have been through but decided not to give up. Let nothing discourage you and never give up.

One should always remember the principle of timing in life. The only thing you cannot recycle is wasted time. Just know that time is money. The great king of wisdom – Solomon says everything in life has its own time. Identify the potential of your season and start to unleash that potential into reality. There are things you can do today but tomorrow you may not be able to achieve so just know that each season has its own power. Therefore one should know how to use his or her time wisely so as to achieve his or her goals.

In addition, one should take responsibility. Responsibility means a state of being accountable or carrying forward an assigned task to a successful conclusion. If you are searching for that one person that will change your life just take a look in the mirror. The future is not someplace we are going to but the one we are creating. This is supported by Abraham Lincoln when he says that the easiest way of predicting your future is to create it. You should understand that it is easy to dodge your responsibilities but remember you cannot dodge the consequences of dodging your responsibilities.

Keep a positive attitude towards your purpose. There is no straight road. For every purpose, there are ups and downs, valleys and uplands but keep your attitude positive. Be inspired and energized by the result than being discouraged by the hardship of the process. The so-called problem is not the problem but the problem is your attitude about the problem. Therefore, you should always be positive to attain your purpose in life.

In conclusion, you should know your purpose in life. There is an unexploited power in knowing your purpose on earth. Do you really know your purpose? If yes, just continue to pursue your goal but if not, just start to have more time with yourself so that you discover your real purpose in life. There are two great days in your life – the day you are born and the day you discover why (William Barclay). Time is now for you to discover yourself.
