5 ways to find your PURPOSE

follow @candyvalentino

When you look back on your life, can you see how all of the painful circumstances, the loss, the missed opportunities, the struggles you went through — can you see how “that” is actually what brought you to where you are today? 🤔

In writing this book, ✍🏽 I’ve had to reflect and relive some painful moments. 😰 But through it all, one belief I’ve always held onto is that all of that pain has actually served me. It’s made me who I am today.

If you’re going through something difficult right now, reflect back on that time you thought life was going to break you. Take pride that you’re STILL HERE, you’re still standing. Each of those experiences are weaved into who you are today.

Nothing you’ve been through has stopped you, defined you or broken you beyond repair — and this isn’t going to either. 💪🏽 So ask yourself, “How can THIS serve me too?”✨

You are stronger than the circumstance before you. You got through hard things before and you’ll get through this too.🙏🏼

Have you ever heard that voice you have deep inside telling you, guiding you, on the next steps you’re supposed to take?✨
.
I’m grateful that at a very young age I learned to dial in to my instincts. When I started my first business, it wasn’t because of some market research I did at 19 (that I didn’t do).
.
When I drove past a vacant building at 25 and decided to start an animal shelter, it wasn’t because of my extensive non profit background (that I didn’t have).
.
It was INSTINCT.
.
❌I didn’t have all the answers.
❌I didn’t even have a clear path to growth.
❌I didn’t even know if if would work!
.
I just listened to that “voice” and knew that I’d figure it out.
.
❓What if you took time to pause and silenced your intellect...
❓What if you got away from the distractions, the opinions and the expectations of others...
❓What would your instinct be telling you?
.
Don’t be afraid to ask for help.
Don’t be ashamed for not having the answers.
And don’t give a f* what other people think.
.
This is your life. Create it. 👩🏻‍🎨
Live it the way you want to live. If we don’t, we have no one to blame but ourselves. So get silent. Get present. And dial into the voice that’s been guiding you all along. It never left, you just stopped listening.✨🙏🏼🌸

Some many people are going through things they never share. Just remember that you’ve gone through tough times before. You went though something difficult 6 months ago, and you got through it. You went through something really hard 5 years ago, and you got through it. This too is not permanent. This is not final. It’s temporary and you’ll get through this too. We got this. Keep going. 💖

‘But is that what you want to do Candy?’
.
⬆️ That is the question @lewishowes always asks me. 🙏🏼 I never realized how often I do things just because I CAN do them, and never pause to even ask myself if I actually WANT to do them.🤔
.
❓Do you WANT to start/scale that business, or are you doing it to prove you can?
❓Do you WANT to go after that promotion at work, or are you doing it to prove your worth?
❓Do you WANT to live in that city, or are you doing it because you think you have to stay there?
❓Do you WANT to be in that relationship/friendship/situation, or are you doing it because you’re afraid of what people will say?
❓Do you WANT to do that thing {insert yours here}, or are you doing it because everyone’s doing it?
❓Are you are seeking validation? Are you serving your ego? Are you fulfilling an addiction? (And yes addictions can be to seemingly good things — accomplishments, achieving, approval, connection, love)
.
I challenge you to pause. Think about what you’re working towards and ask yourself, “Is this really what I WANT to do?”
.
Yes you have to pay bills. Yes you have to do your taxes. Yes we all have to do 💩 we don’t want to do at times. No I am not suggesting you quit and stop everything you don’t like to do. That’s not life. ❌
But what I am suggesting is to take inventory on how you’re spending your time and energy and make sure that those big things you are working towards are actually things you WANT to do.
.
I am taking a serious inventory of life, priorities and how I invest our most precious commodity, TIME. Leave an emoji or a comment below if you’re up to join me. 💁🏼‍♀️💗
