Create Actionable Goals That Will Lead To Your Purpose.

To live a fulfilled life is to tie your happiness to your goals. Especially the entire process that produces the outcome. Even when you feel uncomfortable with the task, you have to keep telling yourself that I am happy and you are doing it by choice because you love it. It tends to make you happy when doing your task. Make every day count. Write your goals and the step-by-step actions that will propel you toward achieving them. Your goals should be written on daily actions. The day is very important because God created the beginning of every day with the sun rising from the east, and at night the sun settles down in the west.  Your ability to focus, challenge and count each day as a separate life is very important to your progress. By giving a comprehensive account of each day’s tasks, and activities. Your daily activities, habits and routine should be in line with your purpose. As Carl Jung said, “Every human life contains a potential, if that potential is not fulfilled, then that life is wasted.”

Focus on your natural strength 

God gave us natural ability within us. Find your strength.

Your life, your potential, and your possibilities are the most precious things you have. Thus your goal in life should be to fulfill that potential and become everything you are capable of becoming. Your ability to learn, grow, and fulfil your potential is unlimited.

Take care of yourself 

You need to take care of your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health. Make time for stretching, exercising regularly, eating more healthy organic food and including appropriate rest will take care of your physical well-being. Always stay positive, negative thoughts will always come to your mind. Your task is to always stay in the right perspective. Pray always; remember, the spiritual realm rules the physical world. Jesus started with prayers and ended with prayers. Prayer is indispensable to our lives.

Practice evening retrospection 

Review your day by reflecting on your progress and writing your thoughts in a journal.   Build a system that will enable you to track your progress linearly. It can be a checklist or a to-do list. Your focus should be on consistently doing the task. Even when things don't go as you plan, don't bite or hit yourself up, have compassion for yourself. It is a gradual process and you will be fine. Always appreciate the little progress you have made.

Face your fear

Take challenges that will push you towards your goals. stretch yourself, learn to find pleasure in the doing. It will not be easy but with deliberate and continuous practice you will improve. Progress is achieved by working on yourself daily.

My fear is to live without adding value to people's lives. Or live without doing anything valuable on earth. I am not afraid of death, because death is inevitable, and the sooner  I die, the longer I will be immortal.   Steve Jobs said, “Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything—all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure—these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked.”

I am afraid not to live up to my full potential. I know no matter the excuse I give today, I can not escape my destiny, what will be, must surely be. The most important thing is, what I did with the time I lived on Earth. 

I want to live for something and die for things. Because "Everyone must die once, and after that be judged by God.- Hebrews 9:27."

This is my fear, and why I want to live my life, fulfilling my purpose. so that on my last day on earth, I would not regret what I did not do, “The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.” I want to say this with confidence,“ I came, I saw and I gave it my best. I will wrap everything up with prayer for a happy death.

Conclusion: A fulfilled life is doing the things you are created for and things within your strength as Hermann Hesse said "Each man's life represents a road toward himself, an attempt at such a road, the intimation of a path. No man has ever been entirely and completely himself. But each of us - experiments of the depths - strives toward his destiny. We can understand one another, but each of us can interpret himself to himself alone"

As a Christian, life is supposed to be win-win because you enjoy your life while doing what God wants you to do and still do the things you love in line with your purpose.
