‘Return to your main purpose during difficult periods.’- Clive Lewis

When things are tough, when things are not going well, we get frustrated.

But getting frustrated is not the solution. The solution is to focus on why you are doing what you are doing.

If you can focus on your why, the solution is right in front of you.

If you are stuck, if you do not know what to do, don’t get frustrated. Instead of getting frustrated, why not ask yourself, ‘What am I doing wrong?’

‘Why am I not getting what I want?’ ‘What is going on?’ ‘How am I going to move myself forward?’

Remember, it is not enough to ask questions. If you want things to change, you must be willing to put your questions to work.

You must be willing to do things differently. You must be willing to challenge yourself.

No matter what is going on in your life, if you are willing to pay the price, you can have the prize.

Are you willing to pay the price?

Your purpose is your why. It is why you are alive.

When things are really tough, when things are not going your way, it is your purpose that will get you through.

If you do not know your purpose, here is how to bring it to your life.

Do not overcorrect yourself.

‘… overcorrection follows an unpleasant experience or a loss. We don’t want to repeat either, so we try to protect ourselves by going as far as we can in the opposite direction.’- Sara Kuburic

Give yourself permission to live your life

‘Give yourself permission to become who you want to be and do it for your Self, not for others.’– Sara Kuburic

To bring purpose to your life, you must give yourself permission to live your life, to do your own thing, and to face what is yours to face. And you must live for yourself, not for others.

Be honest with yourself

‘If you’re not honest about the story that got you here, you’ll never change the narrative.’– Sara Kuburic

If you want to change your life, stop playing with yourself. If you are not honest with yourself, your life is not going to change.

‘Be the leading character in your own life.’- Sara Kuburic

‘Ground in your why’

‘Ground in your why and it will lead you to your how.’– Sara Kuburic

You can achieve your dreams. But if you do not focus on them, you will never achieve them. To achieve your own dreams, to get what you want in your life, you must focus on your purpose.

Believe in your purpose

‘You have to believe in your quest even if others don’t.’- Chris Guillebeau

Your purpose is yours. When you believe in what you are doing, other will follow you. But if you doubt your purpose, if you do not believe in what you are doing, then do not expect other people to believe in you.

If you want to make every day an adventure, all you have to do is priotitize adventure.’– Chris Guillebeau
