8 Steps to fulfillment
We are at the threshold of entering a new year and decade. If you believe that each of us as individuals have special gifts and that every day is a gift from the almighty, you are probably one who strives to live a life of purpose and fulfillment.
In my coaching, I occasionally will come across people who are unsure of what they should be doing and where they should be going. If this is a challenge for you, allow me to share some questions you can ask yourself that can channel your thoughts in a direction that is right for you. These questions are from Brian Tracy, a noted speaker and author. . Here they are:
8 Ways for you to identify and determine your special talent and what you are uniquely suited to do:
- You will always be the best at something that you love to do. If you could afford it, you would do it without pay. It brings out the very best in you, and you get a tremendous amount of satisfaction and enjoyment when you are engaged in that particular work.
- You do it well. You seem to have a natural ability to perform in that area.
- This talent has been responsible for most of your success and happiness in life up to now. From an early age, it is something you enjoyed to do and you got the greatest rewards and compliments from other people.
- It is something that was easy for you to learn, and easy to do. In fact, it was so easy to do, you forgot when and how you learned it. You just found yourself doing it easy and well one day.
- It holds your attention. It absorbs you and fascinates you. You like to read about it, talk about it, and learn about it. It seems to attract you like a moth to a flame.
- You love to learn about it, and become better at it all your life. You have a deep inner desire to really excel in this particular area.
- When you do what you are ideally suited to do, time stands still. You can often work in your area of special talent for long periods without eating or sleeping hour after hour because you get so involved in it.
- You really admire and respect other people who are good at what you are most suited to do. You want to be like them and be around them, and emulate them in every way.
It is the holidays. You likely have some extra time. Why not dig in to a couple of these questions?
