Yet another purpose-finding tool:
Using the "what quality do you think it would bring you"--an idea from Abraham
So yesterday I was watching some Abraham videos and I found a process that I liked.
#1
YouTube - MONEY AND THE LAW OF ATTRACTION: Aligning With Your Veritable Fortune - Abraham-Hicks
#2
YouTube - Attracting a mate: Abraham-Hicks
The two main ideas from them are:
#1
Most people say they want something, but their focus is on lack of what they want. I.e. "I want to find my purpose, but I don't know how to find it." You should use your feelings to determine the "feeling place" of what you're thinking about so you know whether you're focusing on your actual desire--if you even know what it is ("I want a purpose" is a statement about lack of purpose, not an awareness of what you believe a purpose will feel like)--or lack of it.
#2
To help with point #1, just find a single "piece" of feeling from your actual desire--something that comes from a place of what you're actually wanting, not lack of it--and "milk it." I find that when I'm not making progress, it means I have a desire for something, but I'm trying to get it by focusing on the lack of it (although it may not be apparent initially).
The videos are actually about alignment, not the specific topics they say they're about (i.e. money, the LoA, and finding a mate). Abraham is great because all of "their" specific suggestions come from an understanding of universal principles, so they work on both the high level and the low level application.
