Purpose, Passion, and
Pain

You work for a
purpose-driven company! I hope we become engrained with the fact that each of
us has a purpose. We may not be perfect people. We may not have perfect situations.
But we are still significant nonetheless!
Women have been blessed with the rich body of emotions and when used
properly they are very effective at motivating you towards your destiny. I want
you to be clearer in your understanding that purpose and passion are interconnected.
Unfortunately, we live
in a crazy world that we're so busy all the time and everything is fast, fast,
fast…and we are losing touch with who we are and our inner sense of passion.
But it is your passion that empowers you to be able to do THAT thing for which
you were created to do. You may not feel it all the time but you do have passion.
It is this passion to which will thrust
us thru the trials of life to accomplish the things that we were created to do
so that we can function at a higher dimension and with authority and with conviction.
You need passion to
withstand all the obstacles that go with your purpose. Just because you are living with purpose
doesn’t mean that you are not going to have problems. You will have problems but you will be given
the thrust to be able to get up off the ground and to step into the field of
your dreams. And even if you have not landed on that thing yet…at least get
in the territory to that the thing you were dreaming to do or that you hope to
accomplish. And through that passion you will be able to ignite things you have
never ignited before and didn’t even think possible.
Now some of you out
there may say, “I don’t feel a thing. I am numb. I used to have passion when I
was young but I don’t feel any passion now”. All of us go thru times that we
don't feel anything at all. But in order to ignite passion again, you have to
be exposed. “Get out of the boat, Peter, walk on the water”. Go do something
you've never done before, get involved, get connected…because when you are
exposed you will see that there are more options at any age. You don’t have to
be cute…you don't have to be pretty…you don’t have to be a size three… you
don't have to be a blonde or a brunette or twenty or fifty. At any age, you can still ignite your purpose
by finding your passion. That is good news!
What then do we do with
the lulls in life…the dark shadows in life?
We all have those secret pains and burdens. Are they in fact
distractions from our purpose? Absolutely not! I've never seen anybody who did
extraordinary feats that didn't have extraordinary issues. It may be the PASSION that gives you the power that you need…but it
is the PAIN from which you have the conviction for that purpose!
If you have not been through
some pains you would not have the burning to do what you do
I believe that children
are like arrows. They need to be
directed. You aim them at that thing you want them to hit but you don't push an
arrow….you pull it away from the target at first. And it is the digression that
causes the progression. If your life has been tough as it's been hard and you
had to pull yourself up by the boot straps, and your childhood wasn't so good…guess
what? That was just the arrow being pulled back so that when you are released you
can thrust after the thing you are after. So you don’t have to grieve over what
you didn’t get and what didn't happen and how you were treated and who didn’t
raise you and who didn’t love you. Once
you understand the greater the digression….the stronger the progression.
If Nelson Mandela had
not been incarcerated, had not been mistreated, had not been ostracized, he
would not have the passion to do what he does. I'm telling you what you think
is working against you is actually working for you. And if you can realize that
then you make sense out of the pain, then you justify the pain
We are constantly taught
to seek provision. Seek money. But I know a lot of rich people. They can be
crazy. Money without purpose doesn’t make you wise…it makes you crazy. You
don’t want to seek provision. You want to seek purpose. If you find your
purpose you will not have to worry about provision.
You don’t want to be
chasing your provision. I want my provision to be chasing me. Then you are in a
position to decide what ventricles to open up and how you can help others.
The most sexy and
wonderful thing in the world is somebody who knows who they are and knows where
they are going and knows what they were created to do. There is nothing like it
in the world. When you find your purpose they will find something cute about
you. People who are on point are attractive. They are focused. They get the
deal. They earn the business. They make the best mamas in the world. They make
the best daddy’s in the world. They are easy to live with.
People who are lost are
hard to live with…whether they are rich or not, or beautiful or not, people who
don’t know who they are always needing validation to feel secure. But when you
are self-confident then you are safe within yourself. You don’t need everybody
in your space. You know who you are. You are dead on center. You are right on
point. You know exactly who you are. You don’t need others to define you. You
don’t need others to validate yourself. And if they clap for you that is good.
But if they don’t then that is ok because you are living your life right on
point with purpose! May each of you be blessed to live a purpose-inspired life!
Make no mistake about it….Mialisia has a purpose. A purpose so much grander
than jewelry. Yes, VersaStyle jewelry may be the vehicle that takes us from
point A to B. But the success and journey toward that destination is for a
purpose which is to help serve others, seek to do good acts in the world, make
a difference in the lives of others, and to bring out and ENHANCE THE INNER
BEAUTY WITHIN.
