Have you ever asked yourself what does it mean to feel self-fulfilled? What is the source of fulfillment in your life? What feelings do you associate with feeling fulfilled?
To a certain degree we all want more in life. We want to achieve our deepest desires, express who we really are, live with purpose and realize our highest capacities. But really, how do we achieve self-fulfillment?
1. Fulfillment really comes into our life when we know who we really are, but not by identifying ourselves with external roles like being a mom, or being a lawyer, or being a CEO, or being a daughter or a wife, you get the idea…it’s really when we go beyond the ego and we see ourselves for who we really are – as perfect, whole and complete spiritual beings, whose natural states are love, joy and freedom.
2. Fulfillment also arises when we take an inner journey and become aware of what we really want, but only when we listen to the voice of our Authentic Self – our Spirit, not to the voice of the ego. Because all the conditions that are perfect for the ego to feel fulfilled, are based on external conditions, and we don’t have control over many of those, so we’ll tend to feel struggle, frustration, self-judgment, fear, etc.
3. We will also feel fulfillment when we dive in to explore and become clear on what direction to go, because it comes from a place of enthusiasm, inspiration and a deep joy that can only be felt when we are connected to our Spirit. By having this kind of clarity, your awareness is always open, and you know what it is that you want to nurture, and what is meant to be released because it’s no longer serving you.
The way to tune into your Spirit’s desires and purpose, and tune out from your ego, is by connecting to your Authentic Self through meditation and quiet time, on a daily basis, this way, you can listen to your inner wisdom and awaken yourself to what really matters, instead of feeling outshined by external circumstances or events.
When we make the inward journey, tap into the source of our awareness, and understand fulfillment from this point of view, it clearly shows how it is holistically linked to living a path of fullness that leads to a happy, successful, purposeful and abundant life.
As you become more aware, pay attention to possibilities and opportunities. A lot of synchronicities happen when your attention and intention are set in motion. I invite you to ask yourself “How will you let your life be enriched by all the possibilities that always surround you?”
