Stop Asking “What’s My Purpose,” and Ask This Instead – As an Akashic Records Master Practitioner, the number one question that clients ask is, “What’s my purpose?” and my answer often shocks them. That’s because I tell them that their only purpose in life is to use their gifts and talents in any way they choose to create joy and abundance. “Really?” They would ask. “There’s nothing specific that I’m supposed to do while I’m here?”

That’s correct.
Life is meaningless. And that’s the gift of the human experience.

As souls having a human experience, you’ve been given the ultimate gift, which is to assign your own meaning to life based on what you decide to do with the time you have here using your natural gifts and talents, and how you choose to experience the results of your choices. Your potential to create more and more abundance and to constantly take your life in new and different directions is always open to you; why place a limit on that by forcing you to have just one single purpose?

The trick is to see through the façade of negativity, to not be brought down by it. Universal law in this free-will material world demands that we experience duality. We can’t know positivity until we experience negativity. We can’t truly understand love without also understanding hate. How can we define our happiness if we don’t also experience sadness? It’s through polarity that we have the freedom to choose which aspect we want to explore and create new experiences for ourselves while we’re here.

You, therefore, have a choice which is to either see life as merely a series of negative events that are meant to keep you down, or a series of positive events that are designed to build you up. Whichever perspective you choose will put you on a unique path of empowerment or disempowerment that will create your reality. Luckily, you are given endless opportunities to switch your path at any time; it’s never too late to change your mind and take a new direction!

You are also given gifts and talents that you can use at any time to help you along your human journey of creation. But using your gifts is something you must actively and consciously choose; they won’t automatically appear without effort on your part to discover and make use of them, which we often do through trial and error until we determine what we are gifted at, and what comes naturally to us.

So here’s the real question you should be asking:

Rather than asking “What’s my purpose?” or even “What are my gifts?”, a much more enlightened question would be to ask, “What excites me?” because that will help you tap into your own soul blueprint and discover the gifts that Source has bestowed upon you to help you create your joy and abundance.

Here are a few journal prompts to help you reflect on what excites you:
  • What would you spend your time doing if nothing else mattered?
  • What are you passionate about?
  • What are some aspirations that you dream about?
  • What activities and situations fill you up and make you feel good about yourself?
  • What talents and skills come naturally and easily to you?
Living in alignment with your soul

When you can fully answer the journal prompts above and set an intention to live your dreams using your natural gifts and talents, that is when you begin living in alignment with your soul’s reason to incarnate in the first place, which is to create joy through authentic self-expression that others can benefit from. And your self-expression will change and evolve as you do, leading you to endless forms of purpose and opportunities to manifest joy and abundance.

Discover your soul blueprint in your Akashic Record

Each of us has a soul blueprint that describes not only our gifts and talents, but also our soul’s chosen life experiences for each incarnation, and our karma. Karma is simply the energy of choices we made in past lives that did not serve our soul growth and evolution and continue to show up for us in present life as negative repeating patterns, challenges, and obstacles.

Your soul blueprint can be intuitively accessed and understood through your Akashic Record, which is a fifth-dimensional warehouse for your soul-level information. While I’ve been doing this work for years and conducted thousands of Akashic readings, I also teach you how you can do this same kind of work for yourself in my Akashic Healing course, “Live a Soul-Powered Life!” Anyone can learn to do this; you don’t need any special skills. Knowledge is power, and when you gain insight from your Akashic Record, you learn how to overcome your karma and how to best use your gifts and talents to maximize joy and abundance in this lifetime!
