It took me years to discover that I was not living out my own purpose in life, I was following others in order to be valued. I was successful and learned alot during my journey but inside, I still felt empty. It wasn't until I lost a job, due to new management taking over that I actually took the time to reflect on my life, and discover who I was, and what my purpose is in life.

I had to go back into my childhood to identify where I lost my confidence and my ability to fascinate the world. When I applied strategies and concepts, I had learned on my journey, to my own life, it awakened inside of me my desire! I felt free and strong. I found what I had longed for and I knew what I wanted to do in life. You see for as long as I can recall, I have been able to inspire and motivate people to overcome. I remembered how many times someone thanked me for listening and helping them walk through their issues. I always felt my best when "caring or giving" to others.

The mistake I made years ago was that I tried to apply this to a career that wasn't what I was to do, it was someone elses. So although I became a caring RN, and was able to give to my patients, I still did not feel valued. There was always that nagging inside. I loved taking care of people so why didn't nursing fulfill me?

My discovery came when I realized, it was not my passion. My passion was in teaching and inspiring others. Yes, you can do this a little as a nurse, but not to the extent that it completes you. Now I have found my purpose in life, and that is helping those who are struggling with low self-esteem and confidence and don't know what they want to be in life, who are wanting to find their own value and self worth. They desire to be confident in who they are and what they were created to be in life. I take them on a journey, from buidling their personal foundation to living out their purpose, to maximizing who they are.

If this sounds like you, I encourage you to take the next step, don't waste years of your life living in uncertainty and doubt. There is so much to gain, when you believe that you were created uniquely and with a purpose, let's find it.
