How to Answer Your Calling � 3 Ways to Remember Why Your Soul Chose This Life
�You came here with something to do.
You are part of a universal consciousness, and there are no accidents in it.
In your true essence � not the false self, not the ego part of you, but in the true essence
of who you are � you are infinite and you have something very profound to accomplish
while you�re here.
Otherwise you wouldn�t be here.
Find it.
Pay attention to it.
Listen to the callings.
See the clues, the cues.
See the alignments, whatever they might be, no matter how absurd or bizarre they might
seem to everyone around you� if you have a calling inside that says there�s also
something else, don�t ignore that.
Don�t die with your music still in you.
Don�t die with your purpose unfulfilled.
Don�t die feeling as if your life has been wrong.
Don�t let that happen to you.� ~ Wayne Dyer
You Are On a Mission.
Prior to birth, just like an artist who is selecting which paints will go onto the blank
canvas, our souls choose a set of colors to work with which determine our parents, ethnicity,
country of birth, etc.
We also choose a number of possible paths that would allow us to experience certain
aspects of our being.
For instance, if courage is one of those aspects of ourselves we wish to experience, we would
collaborate with other souls in this physical realm so circumstances would arise in our
lives where we are required to invoke courage within us.
Likewise, we choose a certain mission, or a calling that would allow us to maximize
our full potentials on this live stage called earth.
In order to fully step into our calling with power and consciousness, we must first elect
to forget what it is at birth so we may, after years and decades, and for some, lifetimes
of soul searching, arrive at a point in our lives where we must make a choice to remember
who we truly are and deliberately call forth what gives us highest joy.
Personally, I see the long years of painful searching as nothing more than a rite of passage
with intended experiences and divinely placed circumstances that fully prepares us to be
who we came here to be.
The second we reunite with our soul�s calling, the universe registers our seriousness and
we come to the realization that nothing can and will stand in our way.
At that moment, all fears and obstacles begin fading as the path unfolds in front of us.
At that moment, we will move mountains and cross oceans just so that we can become one
with our highest intention and commit to our divine mission.
At that moment, our body, mind and soul become aligned with one single purpose � to experience
ourselves as our own grandest creation in this life.
Funny enough, once we remember our mission, we often realize the mission has very little
to do with us and everything to do with everyone else.
It is a mission that allows us to serve humanity and to light the paths for others through
servicing, healing, inspiring, teaching and empowering.
It is no coincidence that for many, in order to remember that mission, we must first experience
the pains and turmoil in life so we may later not only decide to transcend what limits us,
but also use our life journey as a tool to inspire and encourage others to do the same.
Some of the most influential teachers from Hay House such as Louise Hay, Anita Moorjani
and the late Wayne Dyer are but a few who had journeyed to the darkness and back so
they may light the way for others.
Know that wherever you are in life is exactly where you need to be.
You are not bound to any fate and you have the power to change and create anything in
life.
It is my hope that by sharing the following 3 reminders, which are embedded in your soul
blueprint, you will begin manifesting your calling.
1.
Identify Your Highest Joy
As beings of energy, we ourselves are literally the creation tools we are born with and our
feeling is the direct line of communication with our soul, or the higher self.
At any time when our thoughts, words and actions are aligned with the soul�s vision, we know
it immediately by the way we feel which is usually identified as harmony, inner-peace,
joy, gratitude and love.
Whenever we feel good, our vibration is instantly higher which easily leads to inspired action;
and by committing ourselves to inspired action, it leads to more joy which expands the breeding
ground of inspired action.
The more we can get in touch with the �feel good� component within ourselves and listen
to it, the easier it will be for us to define our mission in life.
For the longest time, I had not a clue what my calling was and I spent the majority of
my time complaining and wishing I could do something else with my life while holding
onto the belief that a job and a passion are mutually exclusive.
I did have many passions and since I felt miserable with my job, I indulged myself with
activities I enjoyed whenever I had free time.
Being a spiritual seeker since birth, one of my passions was alternative healing.
For many years, I heard and read about Reiki and there was always that little voice in
the back of my head whispering, �Take a Reiki class.� Like many, I brushed aside
the little voice with as many excuses as I could find but eventually, the voice became
so persistent that I decided to just go for it.
As someone who was also obsessed with doing the due diligence for everything I stepped
into, I spent hours researching for an experienced teacher.
I already signed up for a course elsewhere when the name of my first Reiki teacher popped
up in my search, and for reasons unknown to me at the time, I made a last minute decision
to go with this class.
During the two days of training, I met someone whom I became friends with.
Fast forward to years later, we currently share an office space doing healing work in
Midtown Manhattan.
Within the same year after the initial training the same friend introduced me to another Reiki
teacher who is the very reason why I eventually became a recovery and wellness coach as well
as Reiki master.
During those years, every time when I was guided by inspiration, life rewarded me with
more people, events and circumstances that helped me remember my true essence and carry
out my mission.
Do not despair if you do not yet remember what you came here to be.
Your only duty in this life is to follow your highest joy.
Believe me, it is much more than just a clich� line that we use as a bumper sticker.
Once we follow the first inspired idea, we are sending out the energy with the intention
of �I am my highest joy at this given moment� into the universe which slowly intensifies
and magnifies as we become more accustomed to singing our heart�s song.
What has started as a seed is given more opportunities to grow and flourish every time when we follow
our highest feelings because the energy behind that intention is literally snowballing and
creating more and more movement in the quantum field in bringing us what make us happy.
What inspires you?
What makes your heart sing?
What�s that one thing you�ve been wanting to do but have been putting off forever?
It�s time.
�Respond to every call that ignites your spirit.� ~ Rumi
2.
Allow Your Being to Guide Your Doing
One of the most frustrating things we do to ourselves is we get stuck envisioning the
million tasks we must do to accomplish anything, that can also be the very thing that keeps
us from moving forward.
Answering our calling is very much a process like everything else.
The end result may look nothing like what we started off with or what we planned, and
that is completely okay.
Sometimes what we think we want only serves as a stepping stone that leads us closer to
fulfilling our mission.
The universe does not care about what we do that makes us radiate with joy, it can be
taking a Reiki class or a baking class, going on that spontaneous vacation or calling an
old friend we haven�t seen for years.
The universe only cares about the vibrational signature we give off when we are being that
joy.
By giving ourselves into inspired action, we may be meeting a teacher for life who becomes
our source of inspiration, or be welcoming an opportunity that otherwise would not be
there had we not chosen to follow our heart and arrive at that exact location and time.
The only decision we have to make on a daily basis is to start following whichever things
that give us whatever amount of joy out of all the available daily activities in front
of us rather than coming up with a huge plan of action to get ourselves from point A to
B because �it is the right thing to do� or �everything else does it.�
If your only daily activities are comprised of chores such as house cleaning, meeting
deadlines and cooking for a family of six, then invite yourself to do some (or all) of
those things with as much joy and presence as you can, and to squeeze in a couple of
little activities that bring you peace and make you come alive.
They can be as simple as having quiet time to read for 15 minutes or working on that
hobby when everyone goes to sleep.
You just never know what may come out of them!
Do not ever underestimate the power behind these little activities as they are what make
the energy accumulate.
Remember, it is always about being the �I am my highest joy at this given moment�
energy rather than flooding ourselves with tasks and running around aimlessly for the
simple reason that we cannot find our calling outside of ourselves, but we can remember
or create it within us.
The more we can allow that energy to flow to us and from us, the more the universe can
bring us everything that resonates on the same energy level to help us remember and
create our destinies.
Is the path of committing ourselves to remembering, and eventually embodying our calling always
peachy?
The answer is no.
It is a journey that is made of a thousand little steps of learning and choosing.
Along the way of building my healing practice, I was constantly discouraged by my lack of
knowledge and tools to run a business as well as overwhelmed by the millions of tasks I
was constantly bombarded with.
I invested a great deal of energy on training courses from learning how to write my about
page to polishing up the content of my website so I can reach a larger audience.
No matter how much I tried to tweak my writing while working with business coaches and alike,
I was unable to meet their standards of using �simple and client friendly� language
where I could explain what I do in a couple of sentences to an eight-year old.
One day, exactly one year from the day I resigned from my last job, it finally hit me.
While I will always remain grateful of the knowledge and support I have taken away from
the courses, my writing reflects my true essence, and who I am at the core is someone who thinks,
feels and speaks like the spiritual geek that I am proud to be.
By giving myself endless tasks of to-do�s that do not align with my inspired actions,
I am neglecting who I came here to be � someone who helps others heal, awaken and create through
spiritual writing, healing and coaching.
In fact, this article was entirely inspired by hours of staring at weeks worth of unfinished
homework documents from my latest course with the sudden realization that the content of
my website may never appeal to everyone, and that is perfectly okay.
I was faced with two choices, to continue doing the daunting task of sounding like someone
I am not, or being immersed in the joy of writing.
The moment I chose the latter, a stream of inspiration poured in and gave birth to these
words.
At the end of the day, it isn�t about what we do, how we do it, what our titles are,
how polished our website looks, how many credentials are displayed in our bios and how many award-winning
books we�ve published.
It is about whether we can allow ourselves to step into who we truly are, and boldly
and lovingly declare our authenticity to the world.
No vibration in the universe is more powerful than our energy when it becomes an extension
of our divine calling.
What are some things on your daily to-do list?
Which ones of those give you any amount of joy?
How can you insert more �feel good� activities into your life?
How can you replace the aimless �to-do�s� with more inspired action?
3.
Your Calling is Your Own Creation
Our souls have chosen a certain mission prior to birth, but the moment we become fully conscious
of who we are and awaken to the creator within, we are no longer bound to any predetermined
paths we laid out for ourselves before coming into this physical body.
The more we are aware of our true essence and our connection with the divine source,
the more empowered we become and the more we can claim the gift of free will which ultimately
allows us to exercise our birthright as the conscious creator to Be, Do, and Have anything
our soul desires.
To achieve that, we must first free ourselves from everything that limits us.
Limitations can take the form of fear such as fear of uncertainty/change, fear of lack,
or even fear of success.
Limitations can also manifest as endless excuses ranging from �I have a full time job with
no time or money� to �I�m too old to do this.� In addition, limitations show
up as disempowering beliefs including, �There isn�t enough for everyone� or �I am
not special enough.�
There is no one way to initiate that journey of liberation, there is only what works for
you.
Personally, I�ve found spiritual practices such as energy healing, Kundalini yoga, meditation,
working with a spiritual coach, being in nature, journaling and reading inspirational books
are all great ways to awaken.
I used to be the queen of �what-if�s.� �What if I failed?�� �What if I lost
it all?�� �What if I became a laughingstock?�� One day, I grew sick of my negative what-if�s
and decided to do a 180.
�What if I succeeded?�� �What if I learned something from this?�� �What
if I could help others?�� I made a point to do this every day for months and it made
a remarkable difference in my ability to exercise my free will.
Prior to tapping into our true creator role, many of us feel like powerless victims who
take whatever life throws at us.
We may be passionate about answering our calling as an artist but end up working at a bank
because we are afraid we won�t make ends meet.
We feel limited, even enslaved by the conditions in our lives.
We submit ourselves to our so-called fate and tell stories of how we aren�t fortunate
enough to be one of those who seem to have it all.
When we awaken, we become aware that we are who we say we are, and what we create as well
as how we wish to experience everything in life depends on one thing and one thing only
� our choice.
Your calling is something you soul chose in the realm of the formless before it took on
a body, and you can choose again at any time in this life because the truth is, your soul
remains who you truly are while your body and mind are only additional tools for you
to carry out your mission so you may experience your own creations physically in this 3D time
and space dimension.
That power of choice has never left you.
Once you decide, allow the universe to bring you the rest of the co-creators to make it
happen.
It is time to unleash your free will and write your own destiny.
There is nothing written in the stars that are foreshadowing who you are and what you
can become.
Once every part and every cell within you is aligned with this inner-knowing, you have
awakened to the divine power of creation you have inherited.
That power lives in you and patiently awaits for you to call upon it.
You are neither your past, your birth conditions, your roles, your accomplishments, your credentials,
your awards, your bills, your bank statements, your 9-5 job that makes you cringe every morning
upon waking up, nor are you your body, your mind, your beliefs, your thoughts, your baggage,
your limitations, your past relationships, even your soul contract.
Deep down inside, you are a being powerful beyond your imagination.
Once you remember all this, you will remember your sacred ability to create anything you
wish and your joyous vibration will make the world just a little brighter.
It matters not one bit if you do not know your calling.
If you could start from a blank slate and create anything you wanted in life without
limitations from this moment on, who would you be?
What would you create?
What is one small step you can take today to be that?
Follow your heart.
