Many of us live
from day to day without a real sense of
purpose. We know we want more out
of life, but we can't seem to put our
finger on exactly what it is. We
believe our fate is due to a lack of
career, money or the freedom to do what
we want. Actually, what we may be
longing for is a personal mission.
When you have a mission, you have a core
passion that gives you vision.
With the vision of your mission, you
move gracefully through your goals.
When you have a mission, you
wholeheartedly embrace a task and you
remain focused until a task is done.
When you have a mission, you feel
valued, worthy and respectable. You
manage to keep your head up and people
notice you. What is your mission?
Is it teaching, healing, painting or
driving? Perhaps it is building
snowmen, counting pea pods or keeping
others on their missions. Respect
your life enough to pursue a meaningful
mission. Respect yourself
enough to give yourself something to do.
