TRANSCRIPT

If you are ready to answer the cry for purpose, with the determination to discover that, I hope you will join me. There is not a week that goes by that I don\\u2019t get an email or message from someone asking, \\u201cHow do I find my purpose?\\u201d, and while I wish I could give private personalized advice. Each email with that question has far too many facets to touch on in just a few words. And more importantly. It\\u2019s very personal.

You see God has made you unique. Psalm 139:14 says, \\u201cI praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made your works are wonderful. I know that full well.\\u201d\\xa0 my friend that\\u2019s you you\\u2019re the work. God is not going to be that intentional about creating you and not be intentional about what he\\u2019s gifted you to do. And that\\u2019s what I discovered as I was neck-deep in a business that was choking the life out of me.

I had been in the fitness industry, my entire life from the age of seven, where I lined up the neighborhood kids to give them nutritional advice to owning fitness studios later on in life. Fitness was all I\\u2019d ever known. I knew God was calling me for more. Now, don\\u2019t hear what I\\u2019m not saying, not that there\\u2019s anything wrong with fitness. It\\u2019s just that my time with fitness was finished and at that time I battled with feeling discontent and ungrateful. I mean, on one hand, I was so thankful for the blessing of my business. I had a wonderful business partner in a super team, but on the other hand, something inside me was dying. I knew God wanted more from me and more for me.

So I began to take the steps needed to discover what God wanted me to do with my life. Can you relate? Do you find yourself, stuck and unfulfilled?\\xa0 Whether you\\u2019ve gotten off the path because of poor choices, or you\\u2019ve been tossed about by the ways of life for filling your God-given, purpose is possible.


So I want to invite you to take the same steps that I did to answer the call of God on your life. Are You Ready?

Step #1 \\u2013\\xa0 Discover. \\xa0To fulfill your God-given purpose you must first discover your God-given purpose but hang with me, but to discover what God is calling you to do. You must first discover who he\\u2019s created you to be and in this step, you\\u2019re going to want to take the time to uncover your God-given temperament. Now, to learn more about temperament. I want to invite you to go over to this teaching series here, an extensive playlist on your God-given temperament.

The next thing that I want you to discover is your spiritual gifts, be honest about your passions and your pain points, take a few hours, or better yet take as much time as you need to discover yourself. My friend this is going to be the best investment you can make. A lot of times we travel through life and we\\u2019re fulfilling the needs and expectations of others. We\\u2019re going down this path that we think we\\u2019re supposed to go down and the next thing you know, we really don\\u2019t know who we are or what we like to do.

So, maybe you\\u2019re wondering exactly what you\\u2019re seeking to discover. Here\\u2019s what I want you to do, seek your strengths and your weaknesses, seek your likes, and your dislikes, your regrets in life, and what you would have done differently, better yet. Discover why you did what you did and above all else, discover your God-given temperament. My friend this is going to change your life. If you\\u2019re not sure what your God-given temperament is
