Finding Purpose

by Dani Johnson

Do you know what your purpose is? When you lose the sense of purpose, you end up losing the excitement for what it is that you do. When you lose the excitement, you become lazy and apathetic. You then have short-term mindsets that don’t even resemble goals. When you can find purpose in what you do, everything around you becomes more dynamic and exciting. Let’s explore what living with purpose truly means.

You’ve got to find purpose in what you do. It all boils down to how you look at things. Some of you feel the strong sense of “I’ve got to do something. I’ve got to become someone. There has to be more to life than what I’m currently doing.” As you are feeling this, you look at your current job or business and think to yourself, “this doesn’t fit.” There is a divine dissatisfaction deep inside of your soul that is there for a reason. It is not there by accident. This divine dissatisfaction comes from losing a sense of purpose in what you are doing.

This commonly happens when the focus is on what you gain from what you are doing versus what you can help others gain from what you do. You see there’s a much greater purpose than just you paying the bills having a big fancy house. I’ve owned million dollar houses and I can tell you first hand that there is a much bigger purpose than just your “stuff,” the watch you own, the clothes you wear and the car you drive. There is a much bigger purpose than the people you know and the names you can drop.

I was that person. My whole purpose was all wrapped up in what I earned, who I knew, how many accolades and rewards I received, etc… This was both pathetic and empty. It was a façade or fantasy that I was chasing leading me to a false sense of satisfaction. What I’m pointing out here is that you have to find a purpose that is bigger than you and all of your “stuff.”

You can find purpose in building a dynamic infrastructure in your business so that it is easy for people to duplicate. Now they are able to succeed and have a huge impact on their family’ lives. They are able to make a difference and impact other people’s lives. You can have a business that is safe and secure based on the amount of lives you are impacting by creating success in other people.

God has given us a chance to use our gifting and out of that gifting other people can now shine by walking in their gifting and accomplishing things they never thought were possible. Imagine the feeling of being the one who introduced a single mom to a business where she became a millionaire. How would it feel to be the one who enrolled a man in your business who lost his job, was losing his home, taking anti-depressants and heading for divorce, who then became successful and put his life and family back together.

When you look at it this way, you realize that there is great purpose in what you do. Look for a much bigger purpose than just enhancing your income and increasing your lifestyle. Do this and life begins to really become that…life! It comes alive. You must find that purpose.
