“Everyone has been made for some particular work and the desire for that work has been put in your heart.” – Rumi
Is there something you’re afraid of, yet intrigued about doing in your business or career? What if your fear is actually guiding toward your True Life Purpose? What do I mean by Fear guiding you?
Your authentic life purpose, divine mission and ideal niche and business plan is inside of you exactly as your life is right now, in an embryonic state. To be willing to start to listen to those whispers, the small voice in your heart urging you forth, and follow your true passions and purpose takes a huge amount of courage.
And, in listening to your passions and desires you’ll be following breadcrumbs toward your true purpose. Making a career out of everything you’re passionate about may NOT be your destiny. Rather, by paying attention to what you’re drawn to, and making time for those things, you will put yourself in the vibrational space to get guidance and intuitive messages regarding your purposeful business path. And, your intuition will begin to trust you more when you actually make time to do what it’s urging you towards.
As you build a stronger relationship with your intuition, you’ll get stronger messages about, well, whatever it is you want to know about!
Launching your purposeful business means saying YES to a larger, more trusting and expanded part of you. You will be called to take steps even when you don’t know where you’re going, to be willing to trust and change and grow and take action… even when others don’t agree that what you are doing is practical or rational.
When you hear the call and begin to truly follow the calm and quiet voice within you urging you in a certain direction, you will find yourself taking actions that are considerably braver than you knew yourself to be. That which you are most afraid of is usually the CLUE to your Purposeful Path. You will know you are on the right track because there will be an overarching sense of joy, fulfillment and excitement.
However, it won’t always be easy.
Your purpose will call you out into the world. Not everyone will support you in your purpose. Not everyone will adore you. Some will disagree with you- some will be triggered by you. Accept this now as part of your Purposeful Journey.
You bring a Unique Gift to this Life, Knowing & Expressing it will Set you Free
This freedom will keep you going… when you hit road blocks, or when someone implies that your dreams are unrealistic, or that you can’t, or that you won’t, or that what you envision is impossible.
You will find yourself up in the middle of the night researching on the internet, writing your book, pulling out your art supplies, picking away a new song on your guitar … fingers flying across the keyboard wondering to yourself- is this going to make any bit of difference to anyone?
The answer is Yes. And, the person who will most benefit from your Purposeful Business is you. And, what choice do you really have? When it comes right down to it, once we get the thrill of living on purpose and with passion, even though it’s friggin’ scary, it’s addicting, plain and simple. And, I would trade it in for the boring 9-5 ANY DAY of the week!
SO…What small step can you do today to prove to yourself that your Purpose is more important than your self doubt?
Start now, start where you are, and let me know how it’s going!
Love, Laura

That’s a beautiful Rumi quote. It’s very comforting to think that my purpose already exists and is just waiting to be uncovered and lived out fully!
I needed to hear this today- I SO appreciate being reminded that I’m in the right moment, right now, and I can just keep patiently searching as the rest unfolds
Love this, thanks for the heartfelt and powerful reminders! You are a shining light of inspiration!
Laura, thank you for always sending me something inspiring. You help me remember to be joyfull. I love the work you do!
Sometimes simple questions are better than great answers. Laura, thank you for offering these perspective-changing nuggets so well.
Laura, I feel energized and inspired by your sincerity, conviction and passion. Thank you…i’m looking forward to our next appointment.
Thanks for the reminder Laura about just following the breadcrumbs…sometimes I feel overwhelmed with what there is to do, but to just focus on one thing at a time is manageable. While reading this I remembered one of my breadcrumbs…I have a call to return to a potential client.
“That which you are most afraid of is your Purposeful Path. ”
Love that.
As another teacher of mine would say- “run towards the roar.”
Thanks for your words of wisdom. =)
