On this New Year’s Eve, I’ve got just one question for you: Are you living on purpose, people?
I attended Unity’s Kwanzaa extravaganza yesterday & learned that the word Nia means “purpose.” By knowing your Nia & working towards it, life can become that much more fulfilling for you. This message dovetailed perfectly with the point of the book I just finished entitled The Science of Being Great by Wallace D. Wattles. Originally published in 1911, the book is a short, simple plan for achieving personal power & tapping into individual greatness. Wattles explains in easy, logical language ways to awaken your inner Abraham Lincoln & avoid the Napoleon complex completely.
The book reveals:
- the simple secret to greatness for everyone, regardless of heredity or opportunity
- why life naturally favors & assists our progress
- the overlooked, ever-flowing source of our personal power
- the vital need to form a central conception of yourself
Your purpose & mine, according to Wattles, is to “give expression to what he (God) is trying to give the world, through you….(Like the) little boy at the piano, the music in whose soul could not find expression through his untrained hands…The spirit is seeking to do great things with us, as soon as we will train our hands & feet, our minds, brains, & bodies.”
In the coming year, I’d ask each of you to search your soul to know your Nia. Find your own purpose & potential for greatness, as it’s in there. The planet & this Pixie can’t wait to see you shine! Like someone at PostSecret said,
Let’s celebrate our great 2008!
