The path to a full(er) life is composed of three core domains: self-knowledge, self-development, and self-gift. In self-knowledge we grow in awareness, discovering who we are and what gives us meaning. In self-development we harness and hone the gift that is our life. In self-gift we direct this gift outwards, allowing our life to be a force for good in the world. Hidden in self-gift is the secret to experiencing everyday purpose. We give not because of guilt, but because it is in gifting ourselves to the world that we find an abundance of meaning, joy, and peace.
THIS WEEK: Go out of your way to do one kind act this week. Plan it in advance and pay attention to your experience of giving. Notice the potential for purpose and peace that can spring from every act of generosity.
All the best,
Steve Lawson - Monk Manual Founder
