when you know for sure that you’re on course and doing exactly what you’re supposed to be doing, fulfilling your soul’s intention, your heart’s desire. When your life is on course with its purpose, you are at your most powerful. And though you may stumble, you will not fall.

when you do not seek or need external approval, you are at your most powerful.

The core of your life is your purpose

Purpose is the straightest path to power and the ultimate source of personal strength — strength

If you have life, you have purpose.

"There is a sacred calling on your life, and the question is: Will you spend your life flittering and fluttering about or take the time and really heed that call and create your own path to your highest good?...You cannot let other people define your life for you. You are the author of your own life...Real power is when you are doing exactly what you are supposed to be doing, the best it can be done. Authentic power. There's a surge, there's a kind of energy field that says, "I'm in my groove, I'm in my groove." And nobody has to tell you, "You go, girl," because you know you're already gone."

One person with knowledge of his life’s purpose is more powerful than ten thousand working without that knowledge.

Everything in your life, from your diet to your career, must be aligned with your purpose if you are to act with coherence and integrity in the world. If you know your purpose, your deepest desire, then the secret of success is to discipline your life so that you support your deepest purpose and minimize distractions and detours.

The most powerful force on the planet is the soul that has awakened to its purpose.

Nothing is beneath you if it is in the direction of your life.

To the extent you identify and honor your true path in this lifetime, you will know genuine satisfaction. Real peace in your own skin. You will be infused with vitality and a clarified focus. New pathways of possibility appear, where before there were obstacles. You will know a peace that will buffer you against the madness of the world. A clarity, a direction, that will carry you from one satisfaction to another.

Life will still have its challenges, but you will interface with them differently. Coded in an authenticity of purpose, that sees through the veils, to what really matters. To the extent that you avoid the quest for purpose, you will live frustrated. A half-life.

Your avoidance manifests in all manner of disease. Perpetual dissatisfaction. Emotional problems. Depression. Addictive patterns. All reflections of your own alienation from the purposeful root of your being. There is really no escape from reality. There is only postponement. You should be more afraid of avoiding your path, than walking it. You are sacred purpose.

The moment we discover our purpose is the moment we tap into an infinite source of energy. This is the moment we realize we weren’t tired; we were just uninspired. As Mark Twain said, “The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.

Because when you are in tune with what you need in order to feel your best, you have so much more energy to give to the world.

When things are going best is when you have the opportunity to be the strongest, most demanding, and most effective in your leadership.
