What is your mission

What is your mission


What
is your mission here on Earth? It may sound a bit grandiose, but it’s good to have clarity for yourself. For a long time, I wasn’t sure what the reason for my existence was. In fact, I couldn’t think of a single reason, and that made me depressed.

Fortunately, I discovered the parties and all that came with them.

That, at least, gave me a reason to be here.
My motto was that line
from the band “The Who”: “I hope I’ll die before I get old…” And of course, you can hear that pumping
rock music playing in the background… right?

That works out fine for quite a while, but the reason isn’t really well chosen. Partying becomes less fun, and you get older. And then… If you don’t have clarity about what you want, what you’re capable of, and what you want to do with your life, things get complicated.
Clarity is a must if you want to lead a life that’s meaningful to you.

How to get clarity

Ask yourself.

  • How are you responsible for the success or lack thereof in your life?
  • What do you need to change to live a successful life?
  • How motivated are you to make your life a success? And what does that connection mean to you?
  • What are you pretending isn't there in your life?
  • What habits have you been reluctant to tackle?
  • What is the problem in your life that you know deep inside you, but don't want to acknowledge or even avoid?

These questions will help you gain clarity for yourself.

In addition, you can start asking yourself what you could do for the world. After all, everyone has a unique blend of qualities. With those qualities, you can become rich in every facet of your life. It is good to discover those qualities in yourself and start using them.

My mission is to make people entrepreneurial from their own power. In doing so, I help them grow personally, learn how to set up a business and bring in clients as a coach. That is my mission. I do this by giving trainings including the Hypnotherapy practitioner

My mission is to help people, support them, and give them love and strength. Just stopping to chat with someone on the street, even if you don’t have time yourself. Just offering a friendly smile when someone makes a mistake in traffic. There’s already so much violence and so much anger directed at one another! If everyone respected each other and were kind to one another, how much better would the world be?

My mission is to help people and relieve them of physical and emotional ailments! To help people fully realize their potential again, free them from fears and phobias, and—through my method—relieve 75% of all psychological and psychosomatic symptoms. So they can stand strong once more!

My mission on this earth is: - to observe - to guide to make sure I don’t step into the spotlight too much; if I do (even briefly), to enjoy it no, my mission isn’t finished yet...

Everyone has a mission. For you, the key is to become aware of it.

My mission is...... To make people feel that they, too, are welcome here. To reveal the sun in all its splendor and power, allowing life energy to flow once again.

My mission is.... To empower people and help them realize that they themselves are the Source of Power! You are capable of so much, and you are so much! Enjoy yourself, and go do what you feel called to do! Whatever it may be, it doesn’t have to be anything grand, or a mission, or a Goal... Just be and live in joy—enjoy yourself!! Don’t ask for permission from “everyone else” or your surroundings, but listen to the things that make YOU happy, because that is the language of YOUR SOUL, and that is your path. Are you ready to follow your own path? No matter how strange it may seem to others? Are you ready to challenge yourself to follow your dreams? Are you ready to consciously learn to recognize what makes you happy? Welcome to life :-) What’s holding you back? Petra Lucia
