Honor Your Discontent

We don’t always know our life’s purpose or journey. Or perhaps we have so many dreams we become overwhelmed with them all.

However, one thing is for sure: if we feel restless or discontent, we are not living our dreams. Feelings of discontent and longing for something else, even when we don’t know for sure what we are being drawn toward, are actually calls from the Divine to pursue our greater good. We discover true desire by first noticing discontent.

When you experience discontent or feel restless, and you’re unsure why, don’t shut it out just because you don’t know what it means. When you shut off your yearnings, you become numb and paralyzed in creating something more interesting. Bring those inner rumblings to the front of your mind for examination. These rumblings are nudging you toward a more meaningful existence and urging you not to settle for mediocrity. By opening yourself up to them for examination, you’re allowing your discontent to lead you toward your purpose.

We also need to be aware of messages from those around us. Not letting others criticize us into shutting down our dreams or discontent. Restlessness is God/Spirit speaking to us, telling us there is more out there and we are not here to lead limited, cramped lives. Allow this voice to be louder and ring more genuinely than anyone else’s. We’re not here to settle for less than our purpose, nor should we settle for what anyone else tries to limit us to. Each and every one of us has Infinite Potential for creating whatever it is we want to create.

Dreams and desires pull at us, tug at us, speak to us, and will not leave us alone–because we’re not meant to live cramped lives. Let these inner frictions rub until they create the spark, igniting the fire of your own purpose. You will know when your desire is sincere when just talking about it gives you energy and motivates you, even when fruition is far off.

Harness your positive energy to participate in the plan in store for you. In doing so, you will honor your discontent and let it lead you to your greater good.
