Mindful Leadership
Discovering One’s Life Purpose Is a Yearning Need of All Human Beings
Have you ever wondered why you are here? Or, have you ever had a feeling you were meant to do something, but were not sure what it is? Another way of putting it is, have you ever thought, “I’m successful, I have everything life has to offer, but something is missing – is this all there is?”
If you have ever pondered these questions, you are not alone. Our greatest desire as humans is to know our purpose, to know why we are here. I wrote an entire chapter on this in Mindful Leadership, including exercises and meditations you can do to help arrive at the answers.
The reality is that as we quiet the mind, our inner voice which is our inner wisdom, begins to share with us, who and what we are. And as this becomes clearer to us, we begin to discover our life’s purpose.
Mark Twain has a wonderful quote highlighting this basic human need: “The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.”
