		<description>Awwww... I loved this post! Our Life&#039;s Purpose is so very crucial to living a true, happy and successful life. When I look back to before knowing are even trying to find my purpose... I was just living day to day &quot;Busy&quot;, worrying about what others thought about me, how my money was going to come in and of course how I need more of it and never really focusing on anything else besides my wants.

A couple years ago I started down a journey that led me to my Life&#039;s Purpose. I went through many challenges, loss of great amounts of money, hardships, fears, difficult circumstances and many other experiences that were very hard for myself and my family. But I have to say I am SO THANKFUL and BLESSED I had the opportunity to go through all of that because I am here now. I found and KNOW my true Life&#039;s Purpose because of my experiences.

I have a few that I truly live for and those are:

1. To give my daughters everything they need to follow their dreams and achieve their goals. Give them so much more than I ever had.

2. To truly Inspire, Empower and Encourage others to live their dreams and to reach for their goals. I want to help lead them to finding their life&#039;s purpose and passion.

3. To give back to the world as much as I can. If I could help families, homeless, donations... whatever it takes to make a positive impact in someone else&#039;s life.

Thank you so much Amanda for this awesome post and allowing us to share our Life&#039;s Purpose! :) (Or start our journey to finding it)</description>

		<description>Saweeet info here Amanda!

Finding our WHY is so important.
Too many people are running around
bizzy bizzy, like you said.

The WHY is what gives us the juice
to get what we want...

Thanks for the share:)

		<description>Hey Kim! Thank you for your thoughts! I couldn&#039;t agree more! As funny as it sounds busyness is what people submerge themselves into to get away from problems in their lives. To achieve greatness it takes action, specific goal oriented action and ALWAYS, ALWAYS, time to step back and work on the &#039;big&#039; things.

Thanks! :)</description>

		<description>I believe that busyness is a way to sabotage ourselves and wiggle out of our greatness.  If we give ourselves the excuse that we are &quot;too busy&quot; to go to the gym, write that blog post or attend our kids&#039; hockey game then we can help ourselves feel better...temporarily.  It truly does becomes a matter of defining what is important to us.  If we remain in the busyness, eventually life WILL pass us by and we will look back wondering what happened.

Make the choice to sit, breathe and just be...even if its for just a few minutes.  You have to start somewhere...maybe even close your eyes for a bit when you read this.  You will have more energy and your thoughts will become more clear.  You will be amazed at how good you will feel.  

Thanks for this great awareness Amanda!
