Idiosyncrasy’s Discovery

There is an inner genius; a unique peculiarity about you like no other. But how often do I hear the cry from the confused mind, ‘I don’t know what to do with my life.’

How sad it is that so many have gone to the grave having never discovered their personal idiosyncrasy. This is the thing that makes you you and me me. The likes, the dislikes, the leanings, the urges, the promptings, the desires, the wishes, the dreams, the hopes and the plans.

But how many allow the daily demands of life to interfere with the greatest question that is imparted to us when we are first born and demands an answer:  ‘For what have I been created for?’

It has been my experience that in order to discover the answer to that question for my own life that I have at times chosen to embrace ‘reckless abandon’.  Foresight would  demand that it was foolishness to cast aside all restraint. But in retrospect, if I had not acted at times rashly, I would have never possessed the glorious future that is now my present.

Life is not for the careful. Abundant life is for the carefree. For it is only as you step forward from the bondage of your ‘hum-drum life’s pirate ship’, with faith as your only plank and way of escape, that you will ever come face to face with a vast ocean of possibilities.

An idiosyncratic life is a full life, a creative life, an expansive life and a fulfilled life.  So demand the answer and refuse to live one more moment without knowing for what you have been planted in this field called humanity. For those who know whom has planted them, why they’ve been planted, and for what they have been planted, then shall some reap thirty-fold, some sixty-fold and some a hundredfold.

For in being planted in the soil of God’s purposes – therein lies great prosperity and great joy.

I urge you – Do not live for one hour more without knowing the why. Be not anxious, for you will in time, if you persist, discover the how.

  • Wow! That’s very insightful. I totally agree with you. Sometimes we have to think different. Great post once again.

  • Discovering your how can come in an instant. It might just pop right into you mind. In my opinion that is more like jumping into the stack of hay with a single needle in the middle and landing on it. I believe you need to be intentional about discovering your real purpose.

    So how do you do that? For me it was in clues as far back as twelve years old. And without guidance how would we know, right? As I reflect back it was right in front of my most of my youth.

    I suggest you take some quiet time all alone. No distractions and no noises to interrupt what you are about to do. Sit quietly, eyes closed, and ask the universe to plant inside your mind what your purpose (talent) is in life. When it pops into your mind, and you will know when that is, then turn it into a movie in your mind. Play it over and over. Project forward five years and feel what is like to be doing, being, and having what you found when you asked for guidance from the universe. Sounds crazy, I know. I also know, IT WORKS!

    What do you have to lose. Take a half hour and try it. After you find it and play it in movie form, go write it down. Don’t lose the momentum. Take one simple action on manifesting what you discover right away. Over the next 30 days, play that movie over and over in your mind. Read what you wrote, and take action every day.

    Good luck.

  • Beautifully written – the phrase about not living one more hour without knowing why will resonate with many.
