WHAT IS YOUR SOUL GOAL?

WHAT IS YOUR 
SOUL GOAL?

Goals. We hear about them all the time.  Goals at school.  Goals at work.  Goals for the new year.  Goals for our finances, our love life, and our status.
Goals, goals,goals!

This is not a lecture on how to write a goal and stick to it.  I want you to think about the goal that matters the most – your Soul Goal.   

You may already be neck deep in your life goals.  You are probably already measuring them, tracking them and think you have everything under control. Yet, are you experiencing a little gnawing inside.  Is there a tiny whisper nibbling at your heart?  Has it been there for years, but you have hushed it?

 That whisper is your Soul Goal.  The good news is this is one goal you don’t have to write down, track or measure.  You just need to listen to your heart because it is already there.

I believe the soul is the script of all we have been and all we will be.  It has drama, action, comedy, heartbreak and love coded into this personal documentary.  Yes, there is an intended outcome to the story.  I believe the ending to your script is to successfully learn how to love yourself and others.  The Soul Goal is our personal method of how we accomplish that.  

Have you always had a desire to paint, work with animals or heal?  

If we are here to learn how to love ourselves and others and your inner desire is to paint, then you learn to love yourself by painting.  By painting you create art that is a gift you can share with others.  In doing so you touch their hearts.  You love others by creating your art. 

If your inner desire is to heal, you may become a doctor, nurse, counselor, or Reiki Master.  You love yourself by following your inner voice and by doing this you heal and love others. You touch their hearts. You love others by healing.  

Do you see how this works?  Your Soul Goal is the technique by which you reach the outcome of loving yourself and others.  

Listen to your whisper.  Pay attention to the gnawing.  If it is unclear what your Soul Goal is – pay attention to when you feel the most alive, happy and content.  This is the criteria for your Soul Goal.  This doesn’t have to be difficult.  

I am a writer and a speaker.  While working through other careers in my life, the whisper, the gnawing was always there.  I would attempt to incorporate snippets of my Soul Goal into my work.  I would speak about my work topics and I would write heart-filled stories and give them as gifts.  I knew when I was doing this I felt the most alive, happy and content. 

My Soul Goal is simple.  It is one line:
       To share my life lessons through speaking and writing.


In the process I love myself by doing what makes me feel the most alive.  I love others by reaching out my heart to touch theirs.     

I’m not suggesting you give up all of your other goals.  School, work, family and life goals matter.  I’m not suggesting you quit your job to become a starving artist.

What I am suggesting is that you listen to your heart as it whispers your Soul Goal.  I am suggesting you find a way to incorporate this whisper into your life.

You don’t have to create ideas that you format into action steps and turn these into strategies and objectives.  None of this is necessary.  You can tip toe into accomplishing your Soul Goal.  Take a painting class one night a week.  Volunteer at an animal rescue center or a nursing home.  Whatever your whisper is calling you to do, find a place and begin

Remember, your Soul Goal makes you feel alive, happy and content.  It should be fun!  It should bring you joy! It just takes loving yourself enough to do what your soul is asking you to do.
