Being tied to a Life purpose is a mistake.

Because our personality, beliefs, and rank of important things in life evolve and change so much.

At some point of personal develompent and maturity the vision that you decided to be your LP will seem even dumb.

I've to admit years ago decide that my LP would be buying land near nature and have a self-sustainable farm to sell healthy product to people, and be so self-sufficient to quit the system and the 9-5 stressful life.

 

Well, due a health problems I've had recently with my gut, I've been very sick. Everything I ate hurted me and had a big amount of problems, gut parasites, disbiosis. Fortunately I found a specialist smart enough to treat my problem.

And a very eye opening conversation with him is that we need to go back to natural rythms, dont eat when we dont got sunlight, dont eat so much times, dont eat things, but real foods that our ancestries ate, no bullshit bread, pasta...

 

I've suffered headaches, inflammation, brain fog, depression, skin issues, anxiety.... and now that my gut is healed my life has changed.

No negative thoughts, no depression, I got a new dimension in awareness, concentration, memory, stillness.

So I'm so thankful to this discipline and this guy that I want to study to help other people to solve their problems related to gut.

With this bigger purpose... compared to helping a human being to heal,  cultivating bio vegetables seems dumb, you see?

Yes your LP can evolve or change over time. Don't get trapped by your past beliefs.

Real purpose allows you to change and grow alongside with it. Better yet, within it.

Why?

Both contributes to life. Just imagine a world full of medicine men but nobody around who is dedicated to growing (healthy) food... it would be like a well-tuned car without gasoline.


Why so serious?
