My guest today on Mindset Transformation radio and podcast is Marlene M Bryan, inspirational speaker, author, business coach and President of Small Biz Evolution. Marlene is going to teach us "How to find your purpose" by becoming a Diamond.<br> Marlene asks this question: Do you remember the day you asked: “Why am I here?” “Why was I born?” “Why don’t I know my purpose?” And the best of all: “Why me?” It’s okay to ask the question why? Yet some people get hung up on the “why” and never move forward or take action to put what they have learned into action.<br> <br> Coach Myrna tip of the week comes: <br> <br> From the book "<a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001C33UZG/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&amp;btkr=1" target="_blank">As a man Thinketh"</a> by <a href="http://www.jamesallenlibrary.com/authors/james-allen/as-a-man-thinketh" target="_blank">James Allen</a> on the topic "Thoughts and Purpose"<br> <br> Until thought is linked with purpose, there is no intelligent accomplishment. <br> Those who have no central purpose in life, fall an easy prey to petty worries, fears, troubles, and self-pitying; all which lead to failure, unhappiness, and loss. <br> <br> For weakness cannot persist in a power-evolving universe. <br> <br> <br> A man should conceive of a legitimate purpose in his heart, and set out to accomplish it. He should make this purpose the centralizing point of his thoughts. He should make this purpose his supreme duty, and devote himself to its attainment, not allowing his thoughts to wander away into ephemeral fancies, longings, and imaginings. <br> <br> Even if you fail again and again to accomplish your purpose (and you must until weakness is overcome), the strength of character gained will be the measure of your true success, and this will form a new starting point for future power and triumph. <br> <br> Those who are not prepared for the apprehension of a great purpose, should fix their thoughts upon the faultless performance of their duty, no matter how insignificant their task may appear. <br> <br> The weakest soul, knowing its own weakness, and believing this truth- that strength can only be developed by effort and practice- will, thus believing at once begin to exert itself adding effort to effort, patience to patience, strength to strength will at last grow divinely strong. <br> <br> Only by searching and mining are gold and diamonds obtained, and man can find every truth connected with his being, if he will dig deep into the mines of his soul!<br> <br> Our topic today is "How to become a Diamond by Finding Your Purpose"<br> Diamonds are created far below the earth's surface from immense pressure and heat.<br> Diamonds are the most indestructible element.<br> How does finding your purpose compare to mining for diamonds? <br> We come into this world from pressure. But we come into this world as coal in the rough says Marlene Bryan.<br> Similarly to the diamond we need diamond cutters to shape us. Our diamond cutters are our parents, teachers, coaches, mentors, relationships, <br> They cut and shape us either to shine like a Diamond or stay as coal! <br> <br> Finding your purpose make you a diamond because then you will believe that you are precious. <br> <br> How do you find your purpose?<br> Your purpose can come from a place of pain or from something you love. <br> If you can't figure it out, get the help of your diamond cutters!<br> Ask them what you do well or what your talents are. <br> Pain is an energy much like anger that moves us out of our comfort zone into our purpose.<br> <br> <br> What are the 4 C's of a diamond and how does becoming a Diamond Help us Find our Purpose?<br> CUT: The cut of the diamond determines its value.
