This morning I was inspired by a Tony Robbins recording about Life Purpose. I used to struggle to define my life purpose because I was always linking it to a specific role or job. In reality though Tony has helped me understand that your life purpose is not really a job as such like being a Doctor, or Coach. Your purpose is a decision you make about the way you chose to live your life. It's that thing that helps you find fulfilment and certainty. It is your very own reason for living and its unique to you and you alone.
On my own coaching journey started back in 2011 - I was at such a point of confusion in my life I didn't feel able to answer the fundamental question "What brings you joy". My coach gave me an exercise to do to help me answer that question and in doing so help define my purpose.
When I first did the exercise I was still a little disappointed as it didn't give me an answer to the question I thought I wanted to answer at that time which was all about what kind of job I should be doing that would make me happy. In reality the answer I gave back in 2011 makes so much more sense now.

If you are looking for joy - you will find it in everything you do. It is about your state of mind and your ability to chose what you focus on. The picture at the top of this blog was taken by my local river. I walk the river often because I love it but that particular day the sunlight through the trees and the reflection in the water stopped me in my tracks and really made me feel so joyful I wanted to capture it.
Today my day started unusually early at 5am as my 5 month old puppy was very ill. I willingly got up to care for him, and clean up because he gives me joy. Being awake (and joyfully so) early also gave me the opportunity to listen to Tony Robbins and then be inspired to write,
