#107 Missions
Inspired by: Viktor FranklDiscuss this Big Idea in the Forums!
“Everyone has his own specific vocation or mission in life… Therein he cannot be replaced, nor can his life be repeated. Thus, everyone’s task is as unique as is his specific opportunity to implement it.”
~ Viktor Frankl
What are YOU here to do?
What’s your specific vocation or mission in life?
Clear? Write it down! Live it!
Stuck? Write down the question: “What is my specific mission in life?”
Then simply write down “My specific mission in life is to …” and let it flow. Don’t censor yourself or need it to be “right.” Just write.
The process of discovering who we are and what our greatest gifts are AND how we give those to the world is, at least in my experience, an arduous one.
We don’t just snap our fingers and say, “Aha! That’s it!”
At least I didn’t…
I’ve had many amazing ideas/breakthroughs/distinctions, but they come in the midst of (pretty much constantly) living in the question of what my mission in life is. AND having the courage to start taking the baby (and/or BIG) steps I feel intuitively called to make.
So, please please please (please please please) spend some time today asking yourself the question of what you’re here to do in this beautiful world of ours.
Let’s live the question.
And, the answer.

To this military attitude of the soul we give the name of Heroism... It is a self-trust which slights the restraints of prudence, in the plenitude of its energy and power to repair the harms it may suffer. The hero is a mind of such balance that no disturbances can shake his will...
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
