Let me introduce you to my creative corner of the internet.
I have a degree in Creative Writing with English Literature and a Master’s in Management and Entrepreneurship.
I am the author of three children’s books- Misfit, Count Your Blessings and If I Were Invisible.
I was also behind two publishing projects which were The Gentlemen Press and Coquettish Magazine. You can see the results here.
The People You Serve
Well, you didn’t think your gift was just for you, right? That ability to cook the best meals…the talent to write poetry…that charisma you have that lights up any room you walk into. It’s for them. Good, now we’re getting somewhere. See, it’s easy to sink into yourself. “I don’t know what to do.” “I’m not even sure who I am.”
When you show up. They know it. It’s really hard when you focus inward sometimes. So, take the time to focus that beam outwards. Concentrate. Why do people seek you out? But also, does it make you happy when they…ask your advice about grilling fish…ask you to play the guitar. Or maybe no one asks.
So, what would you like to do for others? Do you love it when they learn something new, does your heart flutter when they smile back at you? Mission accomplished. I feel this is an important part of finding your calling. You aren’t just for yourself.
So find that thing that helps you serve. See how far you’ll get.
