who you become might be your purpose
“Sometimes your purpose in this world is not something you do, but someone you become.”
- Brianna Wiest
A friend shared this quote in a community I'm part of, and it jumped out at me. It made me think about whether I talk enough about how the path to your Authentic Life can be found in who you evolve into.
I think I present the idea that we need to go internal, rather than looking external, when we are trying to discover our Authentic Self and align with our Authentic Life, but I’m not certain I’ve been as explicit as Brianna in that the purpose we seek can be found in who we are.
As I thought about the quote, I expanded on it, realizing that if your path to purpose is found within you, not in what you do, eventually what you do because of who you have become will become your purpose.
I am an example of this.
I have evolved.
Because of the evolution, I discovered the Authentic Life.
My work with the Authentic Life, in all aspects, has become my professional purpose–I have a different personal purpose.
If you’re struggling to connect with your Authentic Life with what you do, try focusing on who you are becoming.
And then just be and follow what comes next.
See you tomorrow and keep pursuing,
JC
