Default Purpose


The word purpose has come into view several times the last few days.

We may get disenchanted with a person or a situation. We may make a decision
of some kind and find it was not what we expected. Things such as being
unhappy with a list or a person... being disillusioned with our path...
making a move such as a job, career, opening a business, anything!

We make these decisions to move, get a job, join a list, get in a
relationship, etc. and give it no purpose from the very beginning. We don't
ask "What for?" We don't ask "What is the purpose?" When we make a
decision for purpose, whatever it is, it will direct our efforts
automatically. We've made a decision about our future effort, which will
remain in effect until we change our mind. We have taken charge instead of
letting the ego preoccupy itself with problems because we didn't make up our
minds of what the purpose would be.

I've seen this true in every situation I have given a purpose to. And every
time, the purpose is accomplished.

Love,
xxxtg
