Life is way shorter than you can possibly imagine
Your soul knows what it needs to accomplish in this life. Don’t waste time. Whatever that thing is that you are dreaming of — get cracking! You might feel that you need to start a business, quit your job and become a performer, or move to a place that will make you feel free. Whatever these urges are, don’t ignore them.
The world you live in will try to convince you at every turn that you need to be afraid. Very afraid. People will try to make you think you need stability and a solid plan. Life is risky and you need to minimize the risks.
But in actuality, life is not like this. What’s the worst that could happen if you throw caution to the wind in order to fulfill your soul purpose? What can go wrong if you do what’s in your heart? You’re not gonna die.
I mean, you will die. But only when it’s your time. And none of us knows when that will be.
You don’t have as much time as you think.
You simply don’t control or even have knowledge of the time period you’ll occupy this body on this Earth. You can’t know. No one knows when you’ll die.
So, I say: always assume that today is your last ever day on this planet.
Do you want to die never having tried to do something great, or do you want to die at least trying to get somewhere? I think you know the obvious answer.
We are taught to think we have a lifespan of whatever amount of years because the “average” person lives that long, and we’re taught that our glorious medical system will come to the rescue and invent a way to keep you from dying no matter what happens. No matter how little you take care of your health or how reckless you behave, we’re made to think we’ll be saved and that we’re entitled to living a long life.
Unfortunately, we don’t know how life is gonna go. You have to live with a perspective on it that doesn’t assume you have many years in front of you.
Your purpose in life isn’t to be stable, happy, or make money.
All of us — every human being — has a longing in their soul for something specific. Something important. Something fulfilling. It might have nothing to do with what you’ve been pressured into working on. It might be the total opposite of that office job you hate. It might be nothing like what you have observed your whole life in the people around you. You may need to be a trailblazer.
People around you likely operate as if all that matters is security and stability. It’s frustrating, isn’t it? Staying safe produces no results for the soul.
Money helps you achieve your goals, but being focused on money as a means to security — a concept based on fear of the unknown — actually works against you if you think about yourself as a soul with a purpose here. Any distractions from it can’t be good.
You don’t need stability and security unless it’s part of your life mission. Unless it aids you in that mission.
And, happiness? Ha. The point of life was never to be happy. That was never a guarantee. Souls evolve so they can transcend happiness.
The soul knows what you seek, and you won’t be content till you find it.
The universe knows why you’re here because your soul is part of the oneness of it all. You’re working on a spiritual level at all times with the greater consciousness of the world. So, in case you haven’t already noticed, the universe sends you opportunities all the time to make your soul better. To make your life better.
When you’re presented with the chance to live your dream life, that’s the universe trying to steer you into what you’re meant to be doing.
You can choose to ignore those nudges into your correct path because you have freewill. If you do so, you’ll keep being nudged, and sometimes aggressively. For instance, you might have bad luck at jobs that aren’t aligned with your soul. Or you might have a series of bad relationships with people who you’ve chosen to align with, but aren’t meant for you. You might be making bad health choices over and over, and the universe makes you feel the consequence of those strongly until you wake up.
Your soul knows what’s up. It will help you get to what you seek. Your life won’t really feel right until you get to it.
Stop waiting for the right time. Accept your mission now.
You need to identify what your soul seeks plainly, and then focus on that. There is nothing in this world that can give you a purpose better than your own heart. Listen to it. Your soul is drawing you toward what you’re meant to be doing. Don’t try to replace that with an artificial purpose.
When you choose to go in a direction that isn’t in alignment with your soul, it doesn’t usually end well.
You don’t know how long you have. Your life was never yours, so don’t act entitled to your time on Earth. Just understand that your soul is here to grow and learn. Nothing else. So, likely that won’t have anything to do with staying safe and creating stability.
