How To Know What Is My Calling

By Kimberly Richardson


In life, many people do not know what they are meant to do because of all the obstacles in the way. No doubt everyone has their own purpose in life but not everybody has really found out about that yet. So for those who are asking the question what is my calling, here are a few ways to know just that.

The first thing to do is to realize that the past is nothing but a lesson to learn. Most people never find their true purpose in life because they cannot let go of who they were before or of an event that scarred them in the past. The first step to finding true purpose would be to first accept the present, look toward the future, and most important of all, let go of the past.

When one lets go of his or her past and accepts the present, one will then be more open to try new things. This is very much essential to looking for a true vocation. One thing to always remember is that the current path is not always the path that one will be taking on the rest of his or her life. So try many different things and maybe one of them will be the true purpose.

Just like being open to try different things, one must also strive to meet many different kinds of people as well. One will definitely learn something by meeting many people because he or she has the chance to look at different perspectives. While he or she is maturing, meeting new people will bring him or her a newfound openness to the many things life offers.

Now, while one does that, another very important thing that he or she has to think of would be a reason. If one has found a worthwhile path to pursue, then he or she must always have a reason for making that his or her vocation. If there is no driving force behind it, it will just become a mere activity.

Likewise, a vocation must also be feasible. People who often dream about taking a certain path often get disappointed when they find out that the path they wanted is not feasible to do. So before a person chooses and solidifies a certain path, one must make sure that the path is first feasible and possible to achieve.

The last thing to do is to remember that ones vocation is not just limited to one. In fact, one can actually have more than one vocations. It is just a matter of choosing which one to start with and which one to put more concentration and effort on.

It is definitely not an easy task for a person to find out his or her true calling although it is a very fulfilling one. However, one must remember that finding the right path takes looking out of the box and getting out of the comfort zone. It is only through doing this that one will know what his or her purpose is.
