HOW TO MAKE YOUR LIFE SOAR
Author: Brendan Nichols

Fifteen years ago as I walked through Martin Place in Sydney, on the way to my office, I wondered what the hell I was doing with my life. I remember despairing that I would ever find my unique purpose. Even though I operated an extremely successful business that achieved record sales, I felt as if I was somehow in the wrong arena. I felt I was wearing someone else's glove. It was a great glove, it looked terrific but it didn't quite fit. I remember feeling as if I was somehow out of step with the Divine design.

Much of people's confusion and lack of success is based on the inability to find their unique purpose. You see, when you find your purpose, it acts like a clean blade, sweeping confusion and ineffectiveness from your life. Internally you feel as if you are on track. There is a sense of being in the right place and the right time, doing what you were born to do.

Often what keeps people from finding their purpose is the desire to handle survival. You know- " I've gotta pay the mortgage and the bills." While all of this is important, it is crucial to remember that survival and flourishing are two totally different concepts. A plant tucked into a narrow crack on a cliff is surviving. However a rose emerging from a thick bed of rich soil, is flourishing.

GENERATING POWERFUL RESULTS

This is not only true of how you feel internally but its also true of the results you manifest in the world. A 20 year study conducted by Srully Blotnick, found that over 99% of financially independent millionaires, were people who had elected to go for their dreams first and handle survival later. Yes, you read that correctly, over 99%. These were people who decided to flourish instead of merely survive. What this means is that unless you are living your dream, you have less than a 1% chance of financially flourishing. Which is probably the same odds you get at the casino.

While your purpose is important in the financial arena it is also essential in experiencing a level of joy & magic in your life. You have all seen the bumper sticker that says, "Miracles Happen." Well let’s get very realistic about this pronouncement. The fact is, they happen a lot more to people who are on purpose. I don't see too many miracles happening for the homeless people. In having worked with quite a few homeless kids, I have found that the direct cause of their problem is a complete lack of purpose. Show me someone with a drug addiction and I'll show you a lack of purpose.

Next up on the ladder are people who are caught in the survival trap. There's a few more miracles and opportunities that happen at this level. However having worked with thousands in my seminars, my experience is that the people who are living their dream, experience the most tremendous support and coincidences in their life.

This is because you are working in harmony with the Divine will. You are not out there struggling along on your own but are backed up by a force infinitely greater than yourself. Life takes on a greater meaning as you align your evolutionary journey with your life.
