Do you deep down inside have some idea of where you\\u2019re headed / what you want to do with your life? If someone asked you what your purpose was, can you define it within 1 sentence right this moment? Do you know of someone who seems to wake up every day with a fire under their ass to get after it?

Today I want to talk about the importance of identifying what our True North is or ultimately what our purpose on this earth is. When we\\u2019re able to do so, we can make better daily decisions that will put us on the right path or at least a few steps closer to where we think we want to be.

Steps For Finding Your Truth North

  • (1) Throw Ideas At The Wall : Consider what you enjoy doing and what you\\u2019re good at. With that in mind, throw as many of these ideas at the wall until something sticks.
  • (2) Double Down Once It Clicks : Once we\\u2019ve found our True North, our purpose or our Dharma, we need to go allllll in on it & be very strategic about where and what we spend our time & energy on. Get real good at saying NO to opportunities that don\\u2019t bring us closer to where we want to be.
  • (3) Have Patience & Enjoy The Ride : Don\\u2019t give up when you\\u2019re right around the corner from the finish line. Take every day 24 hours at a time and smell the roses when given the chance. Life moves quicker than we\\u2019d ever imagine and we need to enjoy the ride of it.

Challenge For The Listeners

  • Have you found what your True North is? If no, please take 10 mins today to consider what you\\u2019re good at and what you enjoy doing. If you have found your True North, how could you better double down on it?
