Self Improvement with Job

My life dream – actually living it gives me so many great and wonderful things.  But why?  What is this life dream?

I’m not referring here to material existence.  I’m not referring to the dream house or the dream of driving a particular car, wearing certain clothes or being the proud owner of particular gadgetry.  Even though, of course I do like a bit of that too.

No, I am referring to something different.  I am talking about the calling of your soul, the purpose of this life you are living, the real direction of your life and living what it is that you dream to do and be, the dream from the depth of your soul.

Living my life dream means living what I have always dreamt of doing.  And being the person I have always dreamt of being.

Living my life dream means my life is lived with meaning.  Living my life dream means I orientate my life in a particular direction.  Living my life dream gives me more energy and I feel energized and charged.

What about your life dream?  Are you living the life dream you have dreamt of?  Do you have a dream?  Do you know what the purpose of your soul is?  Do you have desires you want to fulfill in life?  Desires that speak to you from the unknown depths of your soul.

Those fantasies that seem somehow idle and get pushed to the side?  What are these?  Do they include the use of your talents?  Do you need to learn something?  Is there something you’ve always wanted to learn or do?

Have you really given yourself enough time to consider what it is that you want to give to yourself to be doing with your life?  Investing every precious minute of your life in a direction that your soul will cherish?

If not, pause and stop.  These are questions to think about.  In those quieter moments, what it is that your heart and soul speaks of?  What is your life dream?

I am living my life dream – what about you?

My life dream consists of actually not one thing but many things, many spiritual dreams and objectives.  It is something like having a palate of dreams on my life palate from which I create and shape my life.

What though, is this life dream?

I am not referring to material concerns when I talk about the life dream.  Meaning having the latest car or a beautiful house.  Of course we all have material desires.  But in the context of the life dream is something different.

The life dream is something that your soul yearns for, something of a spiritual nature.

It might be something you need to conquer and actualise.  An easy example of this is the releasing of ones inner artist.  Many have inner artistic yearnings wanting to be expressed.

There could be the writer wanting to write a book, or the painter who has a talent for painting, or the musician with a world of music within, just waiting for expression.

Or it could be very different and relate to a project, activity or creation that betters the world somehow.  Being of service to humanity.  This could take a very particular shape according to your life dream.

Some may be inclined to the healing professions such as doctors, nurses or other healing professions.  Others may have dreams of working for the emergency services.  And yet others have further more adventurous dreams working in harsh and challenging rescue environments working for NGO and charity organisations.

Whatever the life dream is, one thing is for sure.  Your life is lived with meaning with the life dream.  Your life becomes purposeful.  You are engaged with life and the world.  There is a bigger picture that you are connected to.  Life feels rich with purpose and meaning. 

You become energised and exited about life and what you are doing.  Your know your actions and what you do counts. 

You know that you are making a difference.  In the way that is right for you, making a difference in the world. 

My life dream is clear – what about you?

My life dream has always been pretty simple really.  Since a young age I have had an awareness of my life dream.  Through the years it has changed a little but the core theme and principles have pretty much been the same.

Talking about my life dream however is not what interests me in this moment.  I am more interested in your life dream.

What is the life dream?  What is your life dream?

This life dream is often called the life purpose or the life mission.  I am not talking about material dreams.  Being the house and 2 kids with car or whatever the popular version of it is today.  Nor the dream to have a plasma television nor a wardrobe from the current designer in trend or having enough money to frequent the celeb hang outs and clubs or live like one.

No – this life dream, this life purpose is a lot different to material desires.  It’s that yearning in your soul that calls out to you for attention, a bit of listening and fulfillment.

We all come with one.  Yet throughout the years, this life dream gets ignored, unheard and pushed to one side.

A life dream is often connected to our passions, our talents and our natural capacities.  Yet not always is this so.

The life dream can be connected with artistic ventures.  A desire to be an artist of some design, a painter, sculpter, graphic designer, musician or drawer.  Or it can be connected with an adventure or a vision or simply, a desire to help humanity in some way.

Many shapes and flavors the life dream can be.  The important part is to discover yours. 

Why? 

To complete the objective of your life, to live your life with meaning and value.  And to have made use of all the talents you were given. 

I know what my life dream is – how about you?
