Creating, speaking and living your personal mission is absolutely imperative to living a successful life. Having a clearly defined mission statement gives your life meaning, purpose and direction. Creating a personal mission is fun, easy and quick.

Without a purpose, or personal mission, it becomes easy to wander and drift through life with no specific direction, not accomplishing very much. With a purpose, or mission, life comes alive! You are able to live everyday with passion. The passion that I’m speaking of can only come from truly living from your heart. Discovering ‘Who’ you really are and ‘Why’ you were created that way brings a level of clarity and confidence to your life. As I said before, life comes alive when you live on purpose. Instead of working to pay the bills, you start thinking of how you can better serve the world with your personal greatness.

The true expression of a personal mission in action is fulfillment. If you are not totally happy and fulfilled, chances are good that you are not in your right place, not living from who you are as a person. When you are in your place, you easily and seemingly effortlessly excel at all you do.

When you live from your mission, things that were not working will happily fall into place. Work is no longer work. Work becomes what Mark Victor Hansen calls “Work Play”, because how can you call something you really enjoy, work?

Creating a personal mission statement is quick, easy and fun. Take the next step now to discover who you really are and why you were made that way.

After all, there’s plenty going on in the world, in celebrity lives, in the constant push of the media, to keep one engaged or preoccupied. Which is great, if such brings you joy. But if, on the contrary, you find you are living someone else’s life via trending, or depressed and distressed by

I have a new cell phone. I didn’t want a new cell phone; I was perfectly happy with my 2020 cell phone, but it wasn’t happy with me. Its connector charging port was ailing. Failing, actually, the service tech told me. And besides, it was an old phone, what did I expect? Old? This to a woman who is more than content, read “thrilled,” to wear outdated fashions just because she likes them. And would willingly keep computers way past their supposed “shelf life.” Sigh. OK, fine,
