Farm Your Purpose, Your Life

Finding what you love to do, what you are skilled at, passionate about and meant to do with your life is like plowing a field on a tractor.  A green tractor, the color representing creativity.  You are sowing seeds – digging through the trenches, doing the hard work so that it can be left to grow and reap rewards.  There is nurturing along the way but each seed grows on its own and then spreads its seeds in the wind.  You have to dig deep in the soil to see what’s below, to find the strengths and weaknesses, to acknowledge the karmic trenches and decide what needs to be kept as nutrients and what needs to be released as waste.  You have to understand that you have to be motivated enough to climb into that tractor and affect the land and do the work to plant and nurture but also understand that you are in control of that tractor – it is your will to move forward and succeed.  Yes, external events and distractions may bombard the field but it is always your choice to assess the nutrient levels and the need for water or even the type of seed and plough on anyway – sometimes against the winds of change and sometimes with the wind blowing you forward.  What are your seeds?  What do you love enough to have the courage to pursue?  What sprouts joy from within and spreads like dandelion seeds?  What is worth the effort to plant your seed of longevity?  What taps into your soul and holds on with flexibility to weather any storm?  What stories will be told beneath the shade of your tree?

The exact steps are to start small, build your confidence and spread your wings from there.  It is time to use your laser sharp attention and discipline to create momentum forward and daily achievements within the realm of balance and never forgetting to seek and embrace joy.

In Gratitude and Love.
