What if you could live inspired by your vision persistently nudging you forward to your highest calling in life? What if you could use that passion to create success strategies for financial independence?

Yes, we are called to live an on-purpose life. Yet how do we identify our calling to manifest our talents and set us up to create the income we deserve? Henry David Thoreau speaks of the masses leading lives of "quiet desperation." Many people live unfulfilled lives, allowing their dreams to simply wither and die. You can, however, choose to live a well-intentioned life by creating true wealth by working at home.

First, let’s explore these six steps to give purpose to life on your terms.

  1. Eliminate what does not suit you. We often say," Oh, I could never do that kind of work. It does not inspire me!" Take an inventory of your likes and dislikes. Compile a list of what you would not be willing to do. By doing so, a door on the opposite wall may open, invite you in, and truly inspire you. A simple, "Oh, I would never want to do that!" could assist you in fine-tuning your true desires. What you do like, and could become very passionate about, may well appear behind your front door, after you’ve closed Doors #1 and #2.

  2. Now create a list of what moves you, what inspires you – simply what sails your boat. Enjoy this life-changing process. Stretch, expand, grow your ideas. What is causing you to smile right now? Claim your talents and passions! Brainstorm! What could you do using your natural abilities that could enable you to generate income from the comfort of your home as well? Put this collection of cravings on the back burner for a short while. Let them simmer and soon they will begin to percolate with more ideas for you. But first, we have much more work to do.

  3. Choose to accept where you are in your life today. You are where you are right now for a reason. Accept where you are and who you are. Be brave and bold. "Yes, this is who I am and I am filled with gratitude. I am capable of identifying my purpose based on my talents and natural gifts. I can use my abilities to make a difference in my life and the lives of others. I can create success strategies for my life to achieve financial independence and I can do it from home and even make money online."

  4. Give yourself an emotional hug. Fall in love with you. Release the negatives that have been poured on you from others. Embrace yourself. Look forward with great expectation at the wonder-filled journey that is poised to reveal itself to you. Simply expect the best and keep your eyes focused on what lies ahead. Do the work required of you. No work – no results.

  5. Now turn up the flame on that back burner and create the momentum in your pot of ideas towards boiling. Sketch out your plans. Allow yourself to be inspired by your own potential. Feel the boil begin to roll as you bring forth those passions, desires, ideas, and dreams that inspire you and bring you great joy.

  6. Now you are in spirit with your spirit. You are connecting to the desires that lie deep within you. Continue to brainstorm and design your life. Be inspired by others who have identified what delights them and acted upon it to create amazing lives, often creating wealth by working at home. Watch the front burner under your pot of passions effervesce with enthusiasm, boiling with purpose. Breathe deeply and inhale the inspiration. Make sure to act upon it.

Focus on your vision as it unfolds before you. Relax. Enjoy. Embrace. You are living a life of inspiration. Keep the flame of your passion continuously rolling. Most importantly, inspire others to greatness by encouraging them to identify their skills and maximize their own success strategies. When you do, your happiness will multiply and you will truly know the joy of living an inspired life, filled with the freedom you deserve.
