Have you ever gazed into the heavens filled with stars at night and wondered why you’re here? If so, you’re in good company. Finding life’s purpose was probably one of humanity’s first questions that still begs an answer.
Does your life have purpose and meaning, or is it a random bleep on the Universal radar? Perhaps you’ve succeeded so far, but you feel something is missing. Will you continue to wander through the decades if you miss your calling?
The Universal Connection
Humans live on a physical plane and can only make judgments according to the five senses and reasoning. However, your spirit exists on a higher frequency, and you can connect with something bigger and more powerful than you. It takes time and practice to hone your intuitive skills and hear what the Universe whispers are trying to tell you.
Many people believe that your paths were established long before you’re born. However, the Universe will never break your power of free choice, and you will, undoubtedly, wander off course at times. As you become more inwardly focused and align with the Universe, you understand your life has meaning.
Having A Meaningful Life is Important
1. It May Lead to Longevity
According to a study published by the University College of London, people who’ve found meaning in their lives may tend to live longer than those who don’t have a purpose. When you realize your main motivation, life can be more worthwhile, and you’ll know why you’re on Earth. Life becomes more meaningful and important for you.
2. You’ll Have a Greater Zeal for Life
Do you want more passion for life? Knowing what direction you’re going can help. Even when it seems like everything is going wrong, focusing on your desires makes you more persistent. You’ll get a deep sense of fulfillment when making a difference in other people’s lives.
3. Knowing Your Purpose Builds Confidence
You’re less likely to get lost when you are on a trip with solid directions and GPS coordinates. Plus, you have more confidence in yourself that you’ll arrive at your destination. Your journey on earth works the same; when you find your life’s purpose and can achieve your goals.
4. You May be More Trusting
It’s not easy to trust forces that you can’t see. The more you improve your intuitive skills and align with the Universe, this trust may come naturally. As you complete some of your smaller goals, you’ll be more confident of achieving the larger ones.
5. It Gives More Energy and Joy
Unclear goals and indecisiveness can make you feel anxious. It’s reassuring when you’ve discovered the purpose for your life. You may have the energy to take more chances and find greater joy and enthusiasm every day.
6. It Fosters a Sense of Belonging
A study published by Dr. Liman Man Wai Li et al. for Frontiers in Psychology stresses the fundamental need for humans to belong. In fact, says the study, your mental and emotional well-being depends on satisfying this need. If you feel like a fish out of water, the Universe can gently lead you to a meaningful life where you belong.
When you embrace your life’s purpose, you attract more of the same people. You’ll instinctively know where your talents are most needed and notice more cooperation. Allowing this sense of connectedness will make you feel at home.
How Does the Universe Speak to You?
Since you are eternally connected with the cosmos, it stands to reason that you can have open communication with the Universe. It’s the personification of wisdom and infinite compassion for all. It speaks and gently guides you toward living your best life.
Not everyone connects with the spiritual realm in the same way. Do you crave more meaning in your life? Try to notice some of these ways the Universe is trying to communicate with you.
1. Inner Voice
One of the easiest ways to discover your life’s purpose is to listen to your intuition. That little voice whispers in your mind, like a devoted guide. Your intuitive voice is instantly familiar and comforting.
For example, have you ever seen a stranger and that voice suggested that you should speak with them? Maybe they turned out to be a wonderful friend or even your soulmate. The more you focus on your inner voice, the more it will speak for your greater good.
2. Signs
In the same way your brain uses symbols in your dreams, the Universe uses them for intuition. Fortunately, the signs are easy for you to recognize. It would be best if you fine-tuned your spiritual eyes to get the interpretation.
The Universe may react with symbols as you search for more clarity for purpose in your life. It’s usually confirming something you’ve felt in your heart already. Trust this Immortal Knowledge and decide what the signs are trying to tell you.
3. Things are Flowing Right
Isn’t it thrilling to realize that you are where you’re supposed to be in life? While even the right path often has obstacles, your intuitive nature will be your confirmation. Events may seem to fall perfectly in place like a jigsaw puzzle.
In retrospect, you see how all things worked together for your life’s purpose. When you reach a rough patch in the road, you’re open to more solutions. You no longer feel like you are going against the grain of what was meant to be.
4. Objects
You’re debating leaving a lucrative career for work overseas with a charitable organization. As you make affirmations into the Universe, it agrees by using an object for your attention. Maybe you come to work with a book on your desk about the country you want to serve.
Perhaps you find a travel map or another object that speaks to your destination. When you’re open to working on a spiritual level, the Universe will use ordinary things in uncommon ways to speak.
Spirit will never force you against your will but will lead to a willing heart. Is the Universe trying to tell you something?
5. Dreams
How many great movers and shakers throughout history were motivated by a dream? You may connect with the cosmos in the dream world when searching for your life’s purpose. You may see actions or symbols that relate to your future.
If the Universe often speaks to you at night with dreams, consider keeping a notebook on your nightstand. It’s easier to recall your dreams if you write them down as soon as you awaken. Your dreams may be the key that opens the door you must enter.
6. Listening to Other People
Frequently Spirit will use other people to communicate important messages to you. While it’s usually a close friend or loved one, the word may come from a stranger. How do you know when someone offers the proper guidance or is off the mark?
As you learn to trust your gut instincts more, a simple word will resonate in your heart. When the Universe uses people as a communication tool, they will confirm what you’ve already discerned. If their word comes as too much of a surprise, it may not be the direction you need.
7. Divination Tools
Unlike animals, your instincts are inherently melded with your ability to reason. Using divination tools is meant as a supplement and never as a replacement for making informed decisions. However, you can often try these tools to help you interpret guidance from the Universe.
Since the earliest civilizations, people have used sacred objects to open their minds to spiritual direction. Ancient tools like runes, water bowls, crystals, and tarot cards are just a few. Find the device that speaks to you and learn how to use it with your intuitive skills.
8. Positive Affirmations
According to the law of attraction, sending positive affirmations into the Universe attracts positive results. However, what you may consider a setback may be something that puts you on the right path. You may not realize it until much later.
For example, maybe you were laid off from your job, and you felt helpless. Then soon, you landed the job that fulfills your life’s purpose. If not for that setback, you wouldn’t be where you are today.
Final Thoughts about Discovering Your Life’s Purpose
As you realize that Spirit has your best interest at heart, you will allow it to guide you down the right paths. Finding your life’s purpose was never meant to be a complicated chess game between you and the Universe. Use your intuitive skills and claim the spiritual inheritance that’s rightfully yours.
