Feature Article: Fueling the fires of passion and tapping into the Law of
Attraction
It's been said that one's life purpose is the intersection between one's
passions and the needs of the world.
In Feng Shui, passion is represented by the Fame & Reputation area and
directly across the Bagua is the Career & Life Purpose area - which means
they are intimately connected. There is no separating passion and purpose.
Passions are the things you love to do in your life, regardless of whether
you actually have done them yet or not. Passion is where your eyes light up,
your spirit is raised and you are so excited you can barely stand it - or if
you're a more subdued person you get a little pixie grin on your face
whenever you think about it, or talk about it!
Passion fuels the fires of inspiration and makes the heart and mind open to
possibilities all around you.
In short, to live a purposeful life, it's important to know what you're
passionate about.
It's exciting, and it can also be scary. You're delving into the deepest
most vulnerable parts of yourself.
If you're ready to dig deep, take some quiet time to ask yourself: what do I
love doing, what do I gravitate towards, what do others acknowledge me for,
what inspires me or lights my fire? Think about all areas of your life: your
work, your home, what environment would you like to live in, friends,
community, family, your spirituality, health, creativity, travel, animals,
love, learning......etc.
To guide you, first you need to know the difference between a passion and a
goal: A passion is a way of being. A goal is an outcome. For example:
Passion: Living life abundantly.
Goal: To eliminate world poverty.
Passion: Being part of a strong community.
Goal: To move back to Timbuktu.
Now, take that quiet time and complete the following sentence:
When I'm living my perfect life I am�..
Make a list of 5-10 things, each starting with a verb. For example...
living, being, enjoying, creating, riding�.. etc.
Then, put them in order starting with the one you feel most passionate
about. Create a list of your top five. It doesn't mean you can't have them
all, but it works best to focus on 5.
Here are some strategies for using this new found knowledge.
1. Create a passion board. Create a collage of images and words that
represent the essence of each of your passions. This is a powerful thing to
do. Put it somewhere you'll see it often.
2. Write your 5 top passions on a number of 3 x 5 cards.
Start with the words "I'm so happy and grateful to be now living these
passions" and then list your 5 passions. Underneath write "This or something
better now manifests for the good of all concerned".
Place them strategically in your home and carry them with you.
3. Rate your passions: on a scale of 1-10 (one being almost nonexistent). To
what extent is each of your passions showing up in your life?
In my 12 month program we're working with passions right now. And I'm
looking at my own. When I rated mine, they were mostly 9's or 10's. Great,
except my #3 passion was a 1. It's been on my list of passions for a few
years, I've talked about it, my friends and family know it's important to
me, but where is it?
Not surprisingly with a score of a 1, it's something I've put absolutely no
energy into. When I look at my other passions, they're what I put energy
into every day, so they rate high.
The one that's not showing up puts me out of integrity with myself.
(Integrity is also related to the Fame & Reputation area). I had to do
something fast.
I don't like to admit this, but the reason I hadn't put any energy into this
one is because I didn't think it was possible. Duh! Exactly what trips most
of my clients up from time to time - not knowing how something can happen so
they give up on a dream.
Well, I changed all that fast! All I'll say right now is that when I took a
few minutes to start looking at possibilities and doing some research on the
Internet, I discovered this one is completely within my reach and highly
possible.
And it's going to happen. I can't tell you how excited I am!
So, my coaching request to you is to take a few minutes to write down your
passions - in all areas of your life.
Choose your top 5 passions to focus on for now.
Rate them. Is there one that barely shows up in your life? Perhaps feeling
vibrant and healthy is one of your passions but it's a 1. What can you do
today to get back into integrity with yourself and put some energy into this
passion.
The faster you do, the faster the Universe will step in to support you.
There is something very attractive about allowing yourself to feel your
passions and take action on them - it's the Law of Attraction after all.
If you have no 1's what about the others? Are they all a 10? If not, what
are you willing to do to remedy that?
Your passions are a major key to living your life on purpose. When you don't
follow them, your life is not only not much fun, it also feels like a
struggle because you're not in alignment with yourself.
Now, what are YOUR top 5 passions?
You might be surprised!
