What's Your Purpose ? PURPOSE IN LIFE

“Efforts and courage are not enough without purpose and direction,”

“The mystery of human existence lies not in just staying alive, but in finding something to live for.” — Fyodor Dostoyevsky

If I were to ask you to define your purpose in one sentence, could you?

Well done if you can. You are in the minority.

Most of us understand that living a fulfilled life requires this mysterious quality of having a purpose.

I knew that it meant having a reason to live; something that drove me to live enthusiastically.

More than 110 Billion people were born on this planet and you are one of a kind.

“Your purpose in life is to find your purpose and give your whole heart and soul to it” — Gautama Buddha

The concept of purpose sounds heavy. That’s why it’s so hard to define.

Everyone born on this planet does they all have a purpose. many died without having them, many know they also utilized to make the world better, and many died unable to recognize their true power themselves.

Everyone who is birth on this planet is different in their experience, DNA, mindset, and certain uniqueness. Most people might be likely to think they are not the same and that is disguised by life experience, journey, and many other personal factors.

The metric depends upon the experiences as no one can have the same. That means this is the only factor from which we can make ourselves unique and powerful.

you are different as you occurred in this universe and your DNA has never taken place in the past or the future and this is what proves that you have that special power.

Your Uniqueness is the true power. the thing is that you are unable to recognize it or you are not putting effort into finding it.

When you discover yourself that is the true power. I often ask myself

who are you hansel? What is your purpose in life? I go blank after this …..

So, still, I am on the voyage to explore more and identify life tasks.

I certainly believe that society plays a vital role in it. For instance,

when you are a 4, 5 years old kid you have that inner voice of telling things correct. You will be truthful as you are not much influenced by society till you reach 7 years you are hearing your inner voice but after 11 years old you start to hear the voice of your teacher, family, and society, and that makes you refrain from your inner voice.

To understand it

You want to be a painter and you want to pursue your life as an artist but there is a low salary there at that moment and your parents also pressure you to do something which will earn more instead of choosing your passion your inner voice they kill your inner self as the societal dogma has set in that manner from which very few people can escape

You are not connected emotionally when you hear others more than yourself then the learning part gets harder as you are not able to give your focus and self to those particular things.

On the other hand, if you are emotionally engaged in a subject you don’t need to pay as much attention as you are given it.

Purpose for me I believe is RESPONSIBILITY.

You might have seen only from the age of 18 to 25 people are much talking about purpose but after that, they kind of slow down because life itself gives them tasks the responsibility to feed their family the responsibility to take care of, and many others.

“A man with outward courage dares to die; a man with inner courage dares to live.”

Instant gratification can hinder your vision of life:

you are not paying attention to yourself, you are not inside your head, you dont hear those voices you do not know what you love and like anymore because there are many other distractions so you are always attuned to what other people like you are in social media

the purpose that you have set up for yourself can be damaged if you do not focus on yourself as that is the most crucial part of lifethere are many distractions you can be trapped into like a Rat race which I will talk about in the next post.

the other reason I think is becoming a major reason for much chaos in people’s lives particularly Gen Zi’s many choices

TOO MUCH CHOICES CAN BE DETRIMENTAL IN LIFE

Most people get confused and they never take action themselves and work further as there are lots of options unlike in the past.

for example :

many people talk about starting to code but they get stuck on what code should start first ? as every code is quite the same and interrelated if one is confused in selecting start to code between CSS and c ++ they are quite the same and are essential and instead of starting and get into action they spend the next weeks searching and watching what code should I do first and waste time.

This leads to a big problem.

When you have a sense of purpose in your life and what’s important you are not going to be outraged by the things on the Internet because it is a waste of time and not going to do anything about it just drains your brain.

Know thy self, know thy enemy. A thousand battles, a thousand victories. Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win. — sun sun

Dont Waste your time.

When necessity is pressing in on you like your back is against the wall you have to get something done and there is no pressure around you.

when you feel like your life is in danger suddenly you can leap over things you never tape over sun Su says he put an army in the ground that will fight until it wins putting the army with its back to the ocean and burning the boats and they cans escape from that batter ground

Either do or die
