One of the deepest questions a person can ask is: “Why am I here?”
Many people search for their purpose only through career or financial success. Yet purpose can be much broader. It may include service, relationships, learning, healing, teaching, creativity and spiritual development.
Purpose is more than a profession
A profession is something we do. A deeper purpose describes the quality of consciousness and service that we bring through what we do.
Two people may have the same profession while carrying completely different purposes.
Your natural abilities contain clues
Natural talents can provide important clues. What do people naturally come to you for? What activities make you lose track of time? Which subjects have attracted you repeatedly?
- Natural talents
- Repeated life themes
- Deep interests
- Unusual abilities
- Lessons from difficult experiences
- Desire to serve others
Challenges can also teach us
Sometimes the greatest difficulties in life become powerful teachers. A difficult experience may develop compassion, courage, patience, wisdom or the ability to guide others.
Spiritual purpose
From a devotional perspective, the highest purpose is connected with remembering our relationship with the Divine and using our abilities in service.
Purpose therefore becomes more than achievement. It becomes seva.
The question is not only “What can I achieve?” but also “How can my life become meaningful service?”
Three questions to begin
- What am I naturally good at?
- What lessons keep repeating in my life?
- How can my abilities become service?
These questions can become the beginning of a deeper journey of self-discovery.
