Day 2 • Purpose
What is my authentic code and purpose?
Now that you’ve discovered a bit of your authentic purpose, we’re going to work on finding your authentic code. Your authentic code is what is going to guide you to your purpose and help to get you out of your rut.
Demystify•Positive thoughts and behavior do not determine reward in your life. Living in your authentic purpose with worth and deservingness does.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with my rhetoric, I discovered at a young age that the think positive model doesn’t work in manifestation. So I threw that all away and I started watching what worked and when. I believe that the Universe’s only intention is to reconnect you back with your totally authentic self. What you were born with before the world put onto you including shame, pain, labels, and boxes. You were fully pure and conscious in your total authentic essence.
The way that you can get out of your rut more quickly is to determine what your 4 elements of your authentic code are and to follow those in your daily life. When you’re finding your authentic code with the exercise below, you need to be fully honest with your answers. Don’t try to answer the 4 that you think you should be or what would make you a better person. In fact, trying to be someone else is what contributes to pulling you into a rut as you move further away from your authentic self.
After you determine the four elements of your authentic code, you’ll figure out what lessons you’re facing that are going to contribute with those elements coming to fruition.
It’s important to remember:
i. The very first key to getting out of your rut is to find your authentic code.
ii. Your greatest challenges & situations are what determine your authentic code.
iii. Deeply understanding your greatest challenges will help you to find and develop your purpose.
ANSWER in your journal
Let’s find your authentic code. Remember, this isn’t about answering with what you should answer in order to be a good, cool, respected, or a loved human. This is about getting ruthlessly honest with yourself and cutting out your non-authentic fluff. List four answers for each question, starting with the most relevant to least. Don’t get caught in your thoughts and don’t get precious with the answers. You will begin to see overlaps and similarities. The four most frequently used are clear indicators of your authentic code.
List four answers for each question with the most relevant to least. Read the full question before responding.
i. What do you spend most of your time and energy on? In your natural habitat when nobody is watching and in your day-to-day? List the top 4.
ii. What do you spend most of your money on? What are you budgeting for? When you think of wanting money, what do you honestly and authentically want to get with it? List the top 4.
iii. What is most organized in your life? From your calendar, to your environment, to your bank, to your social life, list the top 4.
iv. How are you most reliable in your life? To what? To who? When? List the top 4.
v. What do you spend most of your time thinking about? What fills most of your thoughts? What do your racing thoughts go back to most? List the top 4.
vi. What do you visualize most when you’re dreaming about the future? What subjects? Objects? Things? People? Experiences? List the top 4.
vii. In social settings, what do you find yourself talking about most? Or wishing you could say if you were talking about the subjects that interest you the most? What topics do you find yourself lighting up about when they come up? List the top 4.
viii. If life were a magazine, what inspires you the most? What would you find yourself clipping out the most? What subjects, people, things, experiences, tips, tools? List the top 4.
ix. When you think of your longterm goals, what are they? What are you wishing for or manifesting in order to have the life that makes you happiest? List the top 4.
x. When it comes to google, what do you love to learn about most? What do you find yourself researching most? What non-fiction books, youtube videos, blogs? List the top 4.
Now look at the four elements that you listed the most. Deduce them. What is the core essence beneath them? For example, mine are: luxury (which means security, comfort and freedom), being seen (which means expression such as filming, speaking, recording), legacy (leaving meaningful and transformative work behind in the world), and self-care/spiritual practice (which means connection with source and my own body).
What are yours? Feel free to journal it all out right now until they become crystal clear.
