Living life on purpose doesn’t mean having light for the whole path or knowing all the answers. It simply means living an examined life, awake and intentional, shifting course as needed, understanding you get to choose who and how you want to be in the world. Here are 11 questions to help you end your year on purpose. 1. What do you want? If you’re telling yourself the full truth – what do you want? 2. How do you want to feel? Are your habits, time commitments, other life patterns moving you closer to this desire? 3. How do you want to make others feel or what impact do you hope to make in the world, in your family or inner circle? We aren’t responsible for other people’s choices or feelings but we can think about how we impact those around us. 4. How are you using your gifts in the world? How can you show up and offer your light in big or small ways? 5. Where are you stuck? Be specific. 6. What do you need to let go of? Think about the emotional, physical, relational baggage you’re ready to release. 7. What life-giving habit do you want to add into your life? What is the ONE THING you could add in that would have the most significant, positive impact on your life in this season? 8. Are you spending time with growth-minded people? Do the people in your inner circle deserve that space in your life? 9. Do you need help? Name the place you need or want help. Make a concrete, step by step plan to get the help you need. 10. Are you ready for change? We sometimes say we want something but aren’t truly ready to take action. Tell the truth to yourself – are you ready? 11. Where is perfectionism, comparison or fear holding you back from what you truly desire? What would you feel like or what would your life look, sound, feel like if you showed up through comparison, perfectionism, or fear? We’re all on this journey together and no one has it all figured out. But as we come to the end of another year, we can start laying aside the distractions and get curious and honest about what we truly want and who we choose to be so that we end the year on purpose. And then we step out. Just one small but purposeful step at a time. XOXO- Melanie
