Why do YOU exist on this planet?

For most of us this is a question that keeps coming up as we progress in life. And this question especially haunts us when we feel like we are not living a life of purpose in the first place.

Your purpose is why you exist on this planet, but that purpose is sometimes hard to understand. I have known people who have asked this question to themselves at the age of 45, 55, 65 and even 85! Its not that uncommon to question your existence. Infact, on your healing journey, at some point these things will come up. Its healthy to reassess your life from time to time to clarify if you are on the path of your purpose or not.

The best journal prompt to find your purpose is, “What did you love doing when you were a child?”

I need for you to jog your memory to when you were a kid, say 8-12 years and remember what you were seriously obsessed with. What made you jump out of bed in the mornings? What was your mind busy with?

In the midst of chaos and confusion, answering those questions helped me find my purpose years ago.

But today I offer 16 more journal prompts to help you figure out your life’s purpose.

For me to even begin reflecting on the year that has gone by, I have to sit with my journal. I have to look at all that I added to it in the past year and really notice where it is that I spent my energy.

Its such a great practice honestly. To really reflect on the year, I had to bring to mind everything about the year. Here’s how I did it:

3 Powerful Steps that WILL Fill Your Life with Miracles

On April 2, 2012April 4, 2012 By Zeenat Merchant Syal-Counseling Psychologist|Spiritual CounselorIn Mind, Heart& Soul-Motivation&Inspiration36 Comments

Do you (or anyone you know) need your own miracle right now in any area of your life? Or do you feel like you could actually use several miracles now in many different areas?

What is a miracle?

The word “miracle” comes from a Latin word meaning “something wonderful.”

Wikipedia defines a “miracle” as a “striking interposition of divine intervention by a god in the universe by which the ordinary course and operation of nature is overruled, suspended, or modified.” In other words, we get “hooked up” in some really cool way by the “Big G” (God).

Nice!

For most people however, a miracle can also be something that is unlikely but really good and beneficial or it can be virtually anything else that is seen and regarded as “wonderful.” For example, to many, winning the lottery is a miracle. Continue reading →
