How To Find Your “What”.
We often hear about discovering our 'Why.' But today, let's shift the lens a little.
Let’s talk about your "What."
Your 'What' is more profound than you might initially think. It's the amalgamation of your life's tapestry - the stitches of your history, the patterns of your past, the textures of your trials, and the color of your triumphs.
While your 'Why' is the fuel to your purpose, your 'What' is the roadmap. Your 'What' arises from:
Your Story: Every chapter, every page, every scribble in the margins of your life story matters. From the highs to the lows, the lessons to the heartbreaks - it’s all contributed to who you are today.
Your History: Those ancestors whose names you might not remember, their struggles, achievements, and dreams, all pulsate in your DNA. You are the legacy of their hopes.
Your Experiences: Every challenge you faced, every tear you shed, every time you laughed until your stomach hurt - these have etched wisdom and resilience into your spirit.
Your Natural Talents: Those things you effortlessly excel at, the skills people admire, the gifts that make you, YOU.
Marrying your 'What' with your natural talents is where the magic happens. It’s where passion meets purpose. It's where your unique gifts align with what the world needs.
So, as you go about your day, I challenge you to delve deep:
Reflect on your journey. What moments defined you?
List your natural talents. How can they serve the world or even just one person?
And most importantly, celebrate your 'What'. It's the sum of everything you've been through, and everything you are.
Your 'What' is powerful, unique, and oh-so-needed in this world. Embrace it, celebrate it, and let it light your way.
