Learn About Life Purpose and Values

What is you life purpose? Have you identified your core values?
Life is not a dress rehearsal and should be lived to the full.

It is important to assess your life purpose and core values so that you can be able to know what you should do in life. I have taken time before identifying what I was meant to do in life and how to live a fulfilling life through the process of assessing and identifying my core values to check if they resonate well with what I am doing.

Many people are struggling in life simply becuase they have not assessed and identified their core values. They wonder why they are not happy with the achievements they have made in life.


1.0    My Life Purpose Statement:
My purpose is to care deeply, love intensely, and to share generously; to joyfully explore, learn, grow, and prosper; to creatively inspire and empower others to achieve their full potential; and to serve the Lord Almighty, in a harmonious and loving way.
2.0    My 5 Core Values

1. Family (members of my household)
My family is my everything; it is my all. They mean a lot to me; I would do anything in my power to protect them and keep them safe. They amuse and entertain me and I love them so much.

I want to spend more meaningful and enjoyable time with them and value all those little moments that I’m often too busy to recognize. I want to build better relationships with each of my children, as well as my wife, and learn to listen to them more attentively.

As family is so very important to me I need to start better recognizing their place in my life. The best way I can do this is by cherishing every moment and really being there with them, whenever possible.

2. Honesty (morality, righteousness, trustworthiness)

I value honesty with all my heart. At the deepest level I can’t handle dishonesty and I find it hard to even cope with dishonesty from my children – nothing irritates me more than when they try to lie to me to cover up something!

Accordingly, I try to be as honest as I can with everyone else. Anytime I am at all dishonest, I feel sick to the stomach, even if it is the most minor of things. I value honesty so much because it goes hand in hand with trust, and trust is vital to any relationship.

On a deeper level I want to be more honest with myself, my feelings and my desires. Sometimes I’m not completely honest with myself when it comes to acknowledging my own reactions to other people or situations.  I need to work on that to find real contentment and happiness.

3. Self-development (development, progression)

“For the best return on your money, pour your purse into your head.”
Benjamin Franklin

But he answered, “It is written, “‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”  Matthew 4:4  

 “Practice these things; immerse yourself in them, so that all may see your progress.  1 Timothy 4:15  

I will always strive to learn to develop myself in order to grow and be more knowledgeable.

“If you want to change the fruits, you will first have to change the roots. If you want to change the visible, you must first change the invisible.”
T. Harv Eker, Secrets of the Millionaire Mind: Mastering the Inner Game Of Wealth
4. Caring (compassion, kindness, generosity)
Whoever gives to the poor will not want, but he who hides his eyes will get many a curse. “ Proverbs 28:27 

“And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone and especially to those who are of the household of faith”. Galatians 6:9-10

5. Prosperity (abundance, richness, wealth)
“Bring the full tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. And thereby put me to the test, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need”.   

I strive hard to prosper as prescribed in the Bible that we will get life in abundance. My prosperity will be used for a good course. 
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.Jeremiah 29:11  

“I the Lord search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.” Jeremiah 17:10  

3.0    The Need
1.   There are many people who want to feel better and live a healthy life.
2.   Many people need financial freedom to change their lifestyles forever
3.   Many people are tired of feeling tired and therefore need quality products
4.   Many people are tired of their work and want to quit.

 I hope this useful to you in determining what God wants you do in life.

Cheers!
