The Path to Purpose

The Path to Purpose

by Sarah Samuel

The path to purpose is not about you finding out what you can be an expert in and being so clear and convinced that it becomes a no brainer for you to effortlessly do it (although that is what it may look like to others) 

The path to purpose does not lie "out there" in professions or roles you can train to do (although it may lead you to train in amazing things)

The path to purpose is a path inwards, home to yourself, and the well of potential within. 

There is no map, no one has done you before. Your guides are curiosity and compassion.

It is a path of comforting the parts of you that feel unsafe, listening to the parts that feel scared, loving the parts that feel unloved, and doing the things that feel uncomfortable, scary and risk rejection.

It is a path of embracing your shadow and shedding perfectionism. In knowing that you are enough exactly as you are, you also know your power.

The path only becomes clearer as you walk it. It is a path of self-trust and self-discovery. 

The path to purpose is about knowing when to say yes and when to say no. And if you don't know, taking a moment to feel it in your body.

In fact it isn’t really a path, because there is no where to go apart from where you are right now.
