How to define your life purpose? Exercise.

What is your life purpose?

I met a woman today who said to me, oh, I am all set here in that department.
Yet, she could not help saying that she is missing something in her life, and that makes her feel incomplete -- fun perhaps, or... purpose?

I offered her an exercise.

An easy self-working exercise. Read this first then do the exercise.

Take a deep breath, exhale, take another deep breath, and slowly close your eyes, exhale. Breathe normally and imagine yourself like you are now, sitting comfortably, with your eyes closed.

Then imagine you are on vacation. Some place really nice. When was the last time you enjoyed your vacation? When was the last time you went on vacation?

Anyway, imagine yourself enjoying the place. Perhaps it is a sunny beach and you are laying on a warm sand under the hot sun, or you are sitting in a hammock in the back yard, or you are sitting on the top of the mountain watching the sunset.

Enjoy your relaxation, breathing deeply, just enjoy.

Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy.  Breathe.

Then think about your life, and your life purpose. What is the purpose for which you are here?

Now open your eyes and write down the first thing that pops into your head. Without judgment. Just write it down.

Then close your eyes and feel it, now go and make it yours.
