Destiny and Purpose in Action

Posted by Fiona Harrold | 3 Comments

Here is a simple little exercise inspired by our new Purpose, Passion & Destiny course. It follows on from the Mission Statement I posted last week and it gets you focused on getting your passion into everyday action. I’d love to hear how you get on with it – you might just have a little light bulb moment – or two!

DESTINY & PURPOSE IN ACTION

1.  Given my destiny and passion how can I be of service?

2.  What will this achieve:
      
         *for me?
         *for others?

3.  The best way to progress this is:

4.  The 3 actions to take immediately are:

5.  What support do I need to put in place?

6.  What might stop me or slow me down and what could I do to handle this?

7.  And what is the Really Big Picture here?

 PASSION – Getting it and keeping it!

1.  What drains my passion and enthusiasm?

2.  What belief or thought diminishes my personal power and effectiveness?

3.  What do I need to replace this with?

4.  What 3 things do I need to reduce or remove from my life, that in doing so, would lead to an increase in my passion?  What 3 things do I need to do or do more of, that in doings so, would lead to an increase in my passion?

5.  What 5 things would I like to attract into my life right now?

If you’d like to share how you get on with this exercise, please do so right here. I’m looking forward to reading about how this has helped you to focus on your passion, in getting it and keeping it into your everyday life!

Your Mission Statement

Posted by Fiona Harrold | 7 Comments

You need to have a clear sense of yourself to forge ahead in life. Your identity comes from knowing what type of person you are – deep down and underneath it all and your sense of worth and fulfilment comes from expressing yourself in the world. This five minute – one minute, Mission Statement exercise, will help you pinpoint the Real You. It’s taken from chapter one of The 7 Rules of Success.

Mission Statement

Answer these questions with five words or a short statement for each:

1. What do you want most out of life?
eg. to be happy and feel fulfilled

2. What do you want to see happen in the world?
eg. peace and happiness

3. What makes YOU special?
eg. my energy, drive and enthusiasm

4.  What things can you do/are you capable of doing, right now?
eg. writing, public speaking, coaching

Now write this statement as follows:

 
I will………………………………………(choose one answer from 4),
using my…………………………………………………(answer from 3), to
accomplish………………………………………….(answer from 2), and
in so doing achieve…………………………………..(answer from 1).

My goal is for every member of my site to have their own clear Mission Statement. And, when you’ve got yours, pass this on so that others can ensure they’re on the right path, all of us clearly and enthusiastically expressing our own unique purpose.

If you’d like to share your Mission Statement here, please do, or any light bulb moments that may also arise!
