    (Kind of a cross over from last week, but leading into deeper thinking about what's going on and how it impacts how you see your purpose in life.)
     
    -We all recognize our life is fleeting and ungraspable.
    -We envision ourselves as helpless beings in this universe.
    -How do we turn it around? We must become aware of how we see each moment.
     
    -This all can seem complicated, but it is a practice. How do you do it Shaun?

    The BOWA Show - Season 4 Episode 15 - What is Your Purpose in Life?

    The BOWA Show - Season 4 Episode 15 - What is Your Purpose in Life?

    Today we talk about finding your true purpose in this life. Easier than done. Take time, think, journal, find yourself, and always stay true to yourself.

    Motivation - Finding your Meaning in Life - The Journey of Purpose TJOP - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XCXMXuUDaic


    - See the moment for what it is. Accept responsibility and move forward. 
    - Meaning is something you look for then you find it. It doesn't consider the possibility that in life sometimes meaning could be something you create and manufacture for yourself and for others. 
    - How would you really enjoy spending your life?


    Science - Your Life Has a Purpose - Project Better Self - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwMel3zQBAc

    - Life is too hard to hide in your box.- If you're bored, you're either not disciplined or you're probably pursuing something you don't want to pursue. 
    - When time flies (when you're engaged in something you find meaningful) it's because you're engaged and it means you're doing something you care about.


    "Stating your fears out loud helps you diffuse them." - Ken Coleman, What's holding you back? What are you afraid of? Where do you want to be?
