“A journey without a purpose is meaningless, and even when it is over it seems to make no sense.”--A Course In Miracles
Dr. Sharon Michelle
Hi! I am Dr. Sharon Michelle and I confess there was a time when I moved through life searching for purpose, not knowing what direction to follow. I wished I had been given a compass that could guide me through life. I know I am not alone. In my 16 years of practice as a psychotherapist, I have seen client after client struggling to find purpose in life. We are all on a journey in life, but if you do not have a clear purpose, you have no clear direction and life feels meaningless.
If you are on a journey without a purpose, you may feel tired, depleted, and unmotivated to continue moving through life this way. For my clients, a lack of purpose often shows up as relationship problems, weight issues, stress, dissatisfaction at work, illness, or an overall poor sense of self.
Many of us have spent many years looking and asking for direction. However, you will never find the answers outside of yourself. The truth is, we were all given an internal compass that can guide us each day. We just have to learn how to access it. It begins by taking a journey within yourself.
“If you let yourself be blown to and fro, you lose touch with your root. If you let restlessness move you, you lose touch with who you are. “–Tao Te Ching

No purpose = No Sense of Self
When you walk through life without a purpose you do not know what you want, you do not know where you are going and you no longer know who you are. You are unconscious of self and of life. When you walk through life in this way, life will change you. You will feel fragmented, disconnected and an overall sense of lack like something is missing. You will be blown in every direction that life chooses to take you. If you are not rooted in a strong sense of self, you will be blown away. It is my mission to guide you through your life and help bring you back to self. You will no longer be changed by life, but instead you will change the world around you by standing firm in the truth of who you are with purpose.
Your Purpose
You have a purpose. It lives within you. It is time to stop wandering around looking for your purpose and begin to take the journey inward. Your journey inward will help you discover your true self and the gifts you have to offer. You have music within you that is uniquely you--your purpose. It is time to find it and share it with the world.
