We have a tendency as human beings to always look outwards for answers to life's crucial questions. What is my purpose, gift , calling?...
We even take it further by taking for-granted what we already posses, by reasoning that its not as significant as so-and-so's gift.
What if you could develop your natural talent of organizing, talking, analyzing or connecting with people in to something that could not only fulfill a need in your society, but also sustain you financially and give you purpose?
Life and my faith has taught me that your journey gets revealed as you take steps in maximizing the little that has been revealed to you. It truly takes faith to work with what you have, not knowing what it could develop into.
One thing for certain is that we should never feel sorry for our selves and tricked into believing that we are not talented and have nothing to offer. We just need to take the time to take stock of where our strengths lie and start there. Once you discover the thing that you do naturally and gives you meaning, you would have opened your self up to the start of a journey that will have you living a purposeful life.
Sometimes you discover your gift and realize that it can take you nowhere unless it is refined. What then? That, I believe is the time to make a decision to educate yourself by either doing research, enrolling for a course, finding a mentor...Whatever it takes to get you to a point where you are ready to package it for the world.
I always go by the saying "We are given one life to live, If you don't do it in this life time then when?"
