Default How do you stay feeling purpose-filled?

My purpose right now (shorter term purpose, I don't know about life purpose) is to help group lightworkers, get them to understand themselves, to get them to connect, work together, be stronger, and to help them understand their calling and what's going on for them.

I cycle between being on my purpose and feeling weighted down and "bleh". This morning I didn't activate until I read an email from a guy I'd helped thanking me profusely. And then suddenly I was like ENGINE ON. The bleh was gone and I was thrumming with drive.

My question to lightworkers here is -

How do you keep activated? How do you remember your higher calling and remember to infuse everything you do with it?

I'm sure there will be no magic pill answers but some inspiration would be gratefully received.

Love!

Andrew

I seek authenticity in thought, word, and deed.

Granted, that is not always easy and, yes, I DO struggle to be authentic at times, but I've discovered that, in my own life, the only way for me to remain motivated is for me to follow my most authentic desires.

Authenticity is the key, I agree with James.

My authentic self is infinite power, joy, and abundance; if I'm not present to that, then in some way I am being inauthentic.

If I am not fully experiencing the power, joy and abundance that is who I am, then it's time to look (if I remember to, sometimes I forget) at where I'm being inauthentic, to look at the cost of that inauthenticity - and the payoff, and to see what would work better and inspire me.

Then I choose.

By not languaging it as "purpose-filled" as if it is somethng that fills me up, here where I am. By not having the purpose I say I am be located in some ethereal cavern of my body or my mind or my soul or my "feelings"

I keep a purpose that I created for myself and my life by having my purpose live in public conversations and promises spoken to others.

It otherwise disappears immediately.

Interesting RabbitFur, so you need your purpose to be "out there" so other people hold you accountable?

I find trying to govern my "feelings" and so called "inner world", to keep a purpose vivid and real for myself and others, to be be like hurding cats, I never seem to be able to have much say over that world, it is so cluttered and random and neurotic

but it seems,

I do have a a little more say about what comes out of my mouth.

My purpose is not even MY purpose. It is a contribution, I am aware of, that involves everyone and I want to participate in that, in the outer world.

And yeah, you are right, for sure, there is the added benefit of being held accountable by something "out there".

Funny, thanks for that, I'll see if I can get it to click for my perspective...

Love
