Finding Purpose In Life
A gigantic reason why so few have success in online marketing is because they don’t know their purpose in life. I found this article among some of my many plr products I own that I thought was worth sharing. This should really help you define your online marketing goals.
Have you ever wondered what you purpose in life is?

Well, you should know that your purpose in life has nothing to do with your job. It has nothing to do with all the things on your to do list. It has nothing to do with your goals. Your purpose in life is all about what you were put on earth and why you exist.
Perhaps, this sounds too deep for some, but it doesn’t have anything to do with religion either. It has to do with defining yourself and how you are.
Maybe your purpose in life was to help save he world and maybe your purpose in life was to share your happiness and optimistic personality with everyone that you meet.
Your purpose is in life is not like anyone else. Everyone has a purpose in life that is unique.
So how to you find your purpose in life?

This is a question that everyone needs to ask himself or herself. Their purpose lies within them. All you have to do is learn how to empty your mind of all your perceived notions about yourself. You need to believe that there is a purpose and that it has nothing to with anything materialistic.
First, you should know that it takes time to learn how to relax and let go. You may need to sit in a room for twenty minutes every night before you are able to let go of what happened that day and focus on nothing.
Here’s a tip to help you find your purpose in life. Take out a piece of paper and what the phrase, “What is my intended purpose in life?”
Then right the first answer that comes to mind without thinking. Then repeat and try to come up with a new answer each time.
You will know what answer is the true purpose when you read it and it overwhelms you with emotion. I may take you twenty minutes to an hour to find out your purpose, but you will find your purpose in life regardless. The first couple times you will notice that your answers are closed, but as you go on with the activity, you will find that the answers are truer to the heart.
At one point, you will find yourself resisting the activity. You will want to do something else, but it is because you fear the truth. Everyone fears the truth. When you notice some resistance, you will find your true purpose in life within minutes.

When you do this, you need to be alone and with no distractions. This means you cannot do this in front of the TV. If you truly feel you do not have a purpose in life then you should start from there and see what your answers turn into.
Your purpose may be so simple, but the best purpose in the world. Your purpose may end up being to live, love, and laugh as much as possible, or it could be to energize the world with great ambitions and peace. Your purpose will also reflect your personality.
If you are a peaceful person, then you may find that your purpose in life is to balance out some of the craziness of the world. When you begin this activity, you may know what your purpose is in life, but it could be the complete opposite in the end.
Why? Because sometimes we lead our lives in hopes to be approved by others like friends, family, and close loved ones. You may get lost in other people’s dreams, but once you do this activity, you will find that everything will work out for you in the end.
Ultimately you need to figure out your purpose in life.
Do you feel like you found your purpose in life? I would love to hear your experience.

Hi, i feel i lost my purpose in life many years ago, back in 1994. I was married with two young children and through problems between me and my ex-wife the marraige broke down taking along with it the whole family unit thing. I have looked at this through therapy and realised i had found my purpose in life. We should of grown up and old ! together as a family unit. When all that broke down i spiralled into a life of drink and drugs, and in all honesty nothing really changed for the following 16 years or so. I tried to get on with things by working but lost job after job and i just didnt care. I had a few relationships and in turn they went sour also ! For many years now it feels like i have just been drifting along, lost interest in many things, which where a huge part of my life. I kicked the drink and drugs in June of last year (2011) and so looking at things in a different light now. Regardless of how sober and drug free i am this doesnt change me mentally and all those mental scars i have carried with me for so long. As much as i try i can only see that my sole purpose in life has been and gone so how many purposes in life are there likely to be !? …
