To Live Your Best Life

To Live Your Best Life – Put First Things First and Get to Know Yourself

People who have created lives they love and that work great have something in common – they know who they are. They’ve done the work to discover what makes them the unique person they are and then they’ve courageously leveraged their uniqueness to create a life of their choosing.

More important than your education or where you came from is the clarity you have about yourself. Self-knowledge is priceless and something no one can ever take from you.

Self-knowledge will help you create a strong foundation for your life. Creating a strong personal foundation takes insight, patience and practice. But if you stick with it, you will learn who you really are and perhaps be able to finally answer the timeless question, “what on earth am I here for?”

Here’s what you need to know in order to create a strong life foundation.

Your Dream/Vision
Your Unique Talents
Your Unique Passions
Your Personal Values
How each part of your life is working today; career, relationships with family and friends, health, finances, fun and recreation, spirituality, home and work environment
Decision on which part of your life you're going to focus on at any given moment
Where you get trapped easily; self-doubt, fear, low self-esteem, anger, depression, etc.
Your Unique Life Purpose

Most of your knowledge will come gradually, over time. But once you know what you’re looking for, as you discover another new part of yourself you’ll know how it fits with the other pieces. You’ll start noticing patterns in your life and you’ll begin to see what you can leverage, over and over again, to create the life you want.

In the future I’ll share with you how-to information and resources that will assist you in discovering most of the items on the list above. In the meantime, begin your search for self-knowledge by asking yourself what you already know about each of items above.
