Today is your day to be on your way! But to where? Your choices are endless and your opportunities to create the life and the world you want are at your feet. As I joined thousands watching Oprah give her commencement speech at Harvard, I was filled with humility and gratitude at the extraordinary opportunity we each have to fully leap into our lives, make a difference in the world, and pursue our dreams.
But how do you ensure you step onto the path that is right for you, with so many paths ahead, and so many possible steps?
- Take the time now to pause and connect with your passion, purpose, and the authentic gifts within you. The faster you can dig deep into all that is within you and your deepest desires, the sooner you will manifest those desires in your life. Know what makes you feel most passionate and purposeful. What compels you? What is worth your dedication and commitment? What fills you with goosebumps? What impact do you want your activities to have on your life and in the world? These are big questions, but you deserve to give yourself the time to answer them from the depths of you before committing yourself to anything. Don't wait! Pause and release the passion and purpose within you. Don't settle or compromise--there is no need!
"If you're constantly pushing yourself higher, higher, the law of averages, not to mention The Myth of Icarus, predicts that you will at some point fall. And when you do, I want you to know this, remember this: There is no such thing as failure. Failure is just life trying to move us into another direction."
So, leap into your graduate life with your passion and purpose at your core, your infinite and divine wisdom within you as your guide, and take control knowing that you make the choices that give you 100 percent responsibility for the opportunities you want to create for your life and for the world. Profits and abundance will come with your passion and purpose!
