7 Steps to Embrace Your Spiritual Uniqueness and Fulfill Your Purpose

Have you ever felt like you are meant for something more in life? That you have a unique calling or purpose that is waiting to be fulfilled? You are not alone. We all have a spiritual uniqueness that sets us apart from others and a purpose that is waiting for us to discover and embrace. Here are 7 steps to help you embrace your spiritual uniqueness and fulfill your purpose:

Step 1: Connect with Your Inner Self

To embrace your spiritual uniqueness, you must first connect with your inner self. Take some time to reflect on your thoughts, feelings, and desires. Practice meditation or journaling to connect with your inner guidance and intuition. By connecting with your inner self, you can gain a deeper understanding of your spiritual uniqueness and your purpose.

This requires consistency and practice. No one said that they did it for a week and became a guru or teacher. This is a lifelong journey that we are on. Once you do experience a breakthrough, it’s so much easier to maintain that flow and recognize your outer thoughts from your inner thoughts. The process of communicating with your spiritual self becomes so much easier and you can then focus on practises that work best for you when it comes to maintaining that connection.

Step 2: Discover Your Passions and Talents

Your passions and talents are a reflection of your spiritual uniqueness. Take some time to explore what you love to do and what comes naturally to you. What are your strengths and skills? What activities bring you joy and fulfillment? By discovering your passions and talents, you can gain clarity on what you are meant to do in life.

This is something that many find themselves discouraged doing. They try one thing, find that they aren’t that good at it and the inner critic rears its ugly head. Before you know they give up and convince themselves that they don’t have a talent or aren’t meant to ever discover it. DON’T GIVE UP! You may not be the best artist or the best writer. You don’t have to be. It’s about how it makes you feel, what do YOU get out of it. It’s not about impressing others or getting validation. It’s about your own personal validation. Not that of others.

Step 3: Set Intentions

Once you have gained clarity on your passions and talents, it's time to set intentions for what you want to create in your life. Write down your goals and desires and visualize yourself achieving them. This will help you focus your energy and manifest your desires.

You’d be surprised how many of us don't really know what we want. And if we were forced to say, we would immediately doubt ourselves and dismiss our own ability to make it happen. All the way referencing past experiences as a justification for not pursuing our goals or even having a dream. Don’t just go through life day by day settling like most do.

Step 4: Overcome Limiting Beliefs

Limiting beliefs can hold you back from embracing your spiritual uniqueness and fulfilling your purpose. These beliefs are often rooted in fear and can make you feel unworthy or incapable of achieving your goals. Identify your limiting beliefs and challenge them with positive affirmations and self-talk. Surround yourself with supportive people who believe in you and your abilities.

We all have self limiting beliefs. It’s what keeps our egos in check and from being able to fly. Okay, maybe some of us need that check. But most of us actually don’t. Most of us suffer from a lack of self esteem, self confidence and are consistently having these inner discussions that lead us to believe that we are either unworthy, made too many mistakes and are downright untalented. We become convinced that this vast universe is against us or has already given us all that we will ever get in terms of growth, gifts or opportunities for happiness. Some of us even think that we need to work extra hard, prove ourselves and that unless and until we do, we aren’t going to be deserving of breakthroughs. This is patently false.

Step 5: Take Inspired Action

Once you have set your intentions and overcome limiting beliefs, it's time to take inspired action. Take steps towards your goals and desires, even if they are small. Trust your inner guidance and intuition and take action on what feels right for you. As you take inspired action, the universe will support you and guide you towards your purpose.

Do it! Just work at it. No one said that you will do an excellent job right away. No one said that you will achieve great success on day one. Or that a breakthrough has to happen right away or it’s not meant to be. If there is one thing that I can’t stand hearing is the term “If it’s meant to be, it will be”. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Step 6: Practice Gratitude

Gratitude is a powerful practice that can help you embrace your spiritual uniqueness and attract abundance into your life. Take time each day to express gratitude for the blessings in your life, no matter how small they may seem. This will help you stay in a positive and abundant mindset and attract more blessings into your life.

You have to have at least 5 things in your life that you can be grateful for on a daily basis. More is better.

Step 7: Seek Guidance from a Spiritual Advisor

Sometimes, we need guidance and support from someone who has more experience in spiritual matters. A spiritual advisor can help you connect with your inner guidance, overcome limiting beliefs, and gain clarity on your purpose. They can provide you with tools and practices to help you embrace your spiritual uniqueness and fulfill your purpose.

Be aware of scoundrels, frauds, self professed holy people, those who want to take advantage of your situation in order to fill their pockets. Cheaper is not always better but super expensive doesn’t guarantee success either. Let your heart and soul guide and choose someone that will not only challenge you but understand your needs so that you can effectively go after what you want.
