Are you wondering how to find your life purpose or get more clarity on why you’re here? You’re not alone. Many people feel a deep desire to live with meaning but struggle to connect the dots.
At Awakenings Institute, we specialize in helping people step into the heart and soul of spiritual coaching and healing. In this article, I’m sharing one of our most effective tools for finding direction — our Life Purpose Formula — so you can get clarity and take action.
The Simple Life Purpose Formula
Here’s the formula we’ve used for decades to guide ourselves and our students:
Your Gifts + Improving the World = Your Life Purpose
This isn’t a rigid formula but a powerful compass that points you toward your deeper calling.
Step 1: Identify Your Unique Gifts
Your gifts are the talents and abilities that feel natural to you. They are the things you enjoy doing — the activities that make you lose track of time.
Examples of gifts might include:
- Teaching and coaching – helping others grow and succeed
- Research and discovery – finding answers and solving problems
- Creativity and art – expressing beauty and inspiration
- Leadership and service – guiding teams or communities
- Communication and writing – sharing ideas that uplift others
Spend time reflecting: What do I do that feels easy, joyful, and meaningful? These gifts are clues to your life purpose.
Step 2: Decide How You Want to Improve the World
Your life purpose is about more than just personal fulfillment — it’s about contribution. Ask yourself: “If I could make the world better, what kind of world would I want to live in?”
Do you want to make the world more:
- Loving
- Peaceful
- Creative
- Collaborative
- Prosperous
Choose one or two qualities that truly inspire you. For example, my purpose is to create a world that is more loving and creative.
Step 3: Put It All Together
Once you’ve identified your gifts and your vision for the world, combine them into a statement:“I use my gifts of coaching, healing, and teaching to help create a more loving and creative world.”
This statement becomes a daily guide for your decisions and actions.
Why Finding Your Life Purpose Matters
Learning how to live in alignment with your life purpose helps you:
- Feel more fulfilled and energized
- Gain clarity about where to focus your time
- Make better decisions that support your long-term growth
- Inspire and uplift the people around you
When you use your gifts to serve others, your life becomes more meaningful — and that positive energy ripples out into the world.
