Learn the magic question to identify your ONE THING in life.
________________________________________________________________
Your purpose in life is to find your purpose
and give your whole heart and soul to it.
Once you decide to live your life with a clear purpose, you might want to identify what this really means.
What could your life's purpose be?
Let's keep things easy while introducing a powerful concept to you.
In fact, there is ONE magic question that, in some variations, will help you to find your focus and priority in any given situation.
Regarding your life's purpose, the focus question can be phrased exactly like this:
What's the ONE thing I can do in my life that would mean the most to me and the world, such that by doing it, everything else would be easier or unnecessary?
What's the ONE thing I can do in my life that would mean the most to me and the world, such that by doing it, everything else would be easier or unnecessary?
Many people receive an instant answer once they ask themselves this particular question.
And that is again a fantastic thing from your inside power:
Even if you have never consciously thought about your life's purpose, your unconscious mind has always guided you in the right direction.
So you won't start with empty hands.
Are you open to the idea that you arrived on this planet with a specific purpose already?
Anyway, we'll work on rediscovering your purpose in 5 easy steps.
Those steps are writing exercises, so make sure to spare about 30 minutes in a quiet environment before you move on.
Really, Victor, take your time on this.
This will, in all likelihood, be the most important 30 minutes in your life.
"The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why."
Well, today is one of them.
30 minutes spare in privacy?
Be prepared to pause the audio after listening to each of the five steps and only continue listening once you have finished each task.
On the spot and without any prior preparation, list 4 to 5 activities that you are enthusiastic about.
These could be those you engage in at your workplace, with your family or community, or as a hobby, sport, etc.
Feel free to mix and match the activities you've thought of without assigning any particular order or spending too much time thinking about them.
Simply write down whatever comes to mind initially.
In the same manner, swiftly jot down 4 to 5 results that you are passionate about.
Again, those may pertain to your work, your family, community, the environment, other people, etc.
Avoid dwelling on it too much.
Suppose you find yourself trying to decide whether or not you are passionate about a particular outcome.
In that case, it's okay to skip it and focus on something instantly resonating with you.
Without overthinking it, from the previous lists, mark the ONE activity and the ONE outcome most meaningful to you.
Again, no rational dwelling on anything.
Just quick and dirty from your instinctive brain.
Now it's time to knit it all together while making use of the magic ONE question being:
"What is the ONE thing I can do in my life that would mean the most to me in the world, such that by doing it, everything else would be easier or unnecessary?"
Phrase your answer to that question while implementing the items marked in step 3.
By doing so, you may or may not uncover a potential connection between your ONE most meaningful activity and your ONE most meaningful outcome.
This might feel strange at the first moment.
However, something will be in it since you've worked somewhat from your unconscious mind.
Congrats on finishing the very first written version of your life's purpose.
Yes, that's exactly what you just did!
This initial draft doesn't have to be perfect.
However, you made another huge step.
So, keep that written piece for further reference.
The final step is to finetune your purpose statement.
Contact a trusted friend, relative, or coworker, and inquire about what stands out to them when they contemplate your life's purpose.
Listen to what they say and see if there's something you want to integrate into your purpose statement.
However, you don't have to.
After that, check your purpose by reading it out loud a few times.
Can you shorten or simplify it?
Can it be more straightforward?
If you are fine with any version, that's perfectly acceptable.
Just express it in a way that feels most resonant with you.
Still, it is 'YOUR unique life' and 'YOUR unique life's purpose.'
You now have a feasible answer to the ONE question:
What's the ONE thing I can do in my life that would mean the most to me and the world, such that by doing it, everything else would be easier or unnecessary?
Make sure to write the answer as a bold code line in your codebook.
In addition, you can hang it on your fridge or your mirror and use it as a screensaver on any display.
Take care that your life's purpose is always on your mind.
Conscious - and even more important - unconscious.
Your purpose statement doesn't have to be perfect.
Just stick with the respective best version.
You can ask the magic ONE question again anytime and modify your statement if appropriate.
Now that you have your life's purpose clear, things will get easier day by day.
You will enjoy more clarity, sharpness, and satisfaction in your life.
You will experience greater results that align perfectly with what really matters to you.
In the following seasons, we will train you to harness your mighty purpose power.
Keep in mind that your unique purpose statement is never comparative or competitive.
It's not meant to impress others.
It is your individual guiding star.
It's there to serve you alone.
You will always know you're on the right path if it evokes pleasant emotions within you.
Enjoy the feeling of again being in alignment with who you are.
Phrase your life's purpose statement and add it to your codebook.
My life's purpose is (fill in the blank)
And this concludes season 1 of the INVICTUS Pepcast.
You did a killer job, and we can't wait to welcome you in season 2.
