“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” - Eleanor Roosevelt
This is the content of the book in a nutshell:
The Three Powerful Secrets Behind All Successes in Life:
1. Desire
2. Belief
3. Action
The 4 Signs of a Soul Dream
1. The Dream Is Connected to Your Most Important Values
2. The Dream Must Bring You Closer to God
3. The Dream Must Be Connected to Your Life Purpose and Core Gifts
4. The Dream Must Make You Happy in the Deepest Way Possible
How will you know your life purpose?
- Examine Your Roots
- Ask yourself two simple questions:
1. Passion: What do you enjoy doing?
2. Potential: And what do you do well?
For my personal reflection, I enjoy doing art and I do well in coming up with witty one-liners, in short expressing myself in words. And maybe, I'm on the right track (baby I was born this way??) in having a career in the field of Advertising Arts.
The values I hold on to are appreciating beauty, the truth and the joy of doing good. And at some point, I feel that it is also God's plan for me - I would not have thought about this on my own, He let other people influence me in terms of choosing what course to take up and open doors for me in trusting me to put into actual work setting; more than earning money, it is about recognizing your self-worth, living with a purpose.
It reminded me of what they taught us during my senior retreat, 'Kronos and Kairos' (our time and God's time) We have our own interpretation of our success in life; but while working on that, we should always remember that we also need to work on our place in heaven someday. It is an everyday challenge on how to live each day to its fullest.
