I wrote this tonight as a response to a blog comment I left and the Author replied back. I thought there may be something here for you?

Thank you for the opportunity to follow through, I hope I do not fall short.
Think of a real Bad Guy in, or better yet watch the movie, “3:10 to Yuma”. The Bad Guy knows what he is and makes no apologies for himself or his actions. He knows his life purpose, and he is comfortable with himself. He is the best Bad Guy possible, as he works at it with his all.

The Good Guy is your current persona perhaps? He is not sure what he is, and does recognize his inherent goodness. He is wishy washy, and not comfortable within himself, or perhaps does not know how to define himself. His self created life problems finally push him over the edge, and he has to become what he was alway meant to be.

Unfortunately in the Yuma movie, his end came too soon, but before he dies, he learns his life truths, and the real Good Guy shines through so strongly even the Bad Guy is illuminated and changed in his presence.

I will give you a small helping hand but it is really up to you to follow through. During your quiet time determine what you know about yourself and your world, not to be confused with what your authors, myself, or anyone else says or writes, only what you know to be true for you.

…this is not an earth moving experience…let it be something as simple as:

1. I am here in this life to____. Make a few simple statement that defines you.

2. I have important things to do with my life such as _____.

3. Over the next (time period, at least a month to notice a difference) I will _____

Get some social goodness in your life.

4. I have brought these gifts ______ (list a few of your unique gifts) with me to help others. I will help others by _____ (doing what?)

That is more than enough to get you on your way. Actually it is too much. After my first number one stop and do not define any more about yourself until some later point.

The most important idea you should take away from this – is identifying what your reason for living is, and how you can best share your unique gifts with others.

It is possible you are doing exactly what you should be doing, and neither you, I, or anyone else is aware of it? What a wonderful gift you can bring to the world by sharing yourself in this way!

Whatever you find to be true, you need to define those gifts that are you. Fine tune them and let the rest of us experience them in a positive manner.

Self Truths are not a massive sun rising out of an abyss, Self Truths are more like a foggy morning turning into warm autumn sunshine by afternoon.

Take little steps, but keep stepping.
