It’s that time of year! Are you ready? Spring has finally showered us with the reminder of her beauty. Opening windows allows fresh air to fill us. Taking walks in the early morning or after dinner give us time to appreciate our surroundings, acknowledge our life and connect with our source. There are flowers and birds and children at play. Want to know the best part of the season? We get to consider our own ‘blossoming’ – a chance to shed the old (Winter) and give birth to the new (Spring).
This is the perfect time to consider how much your life matters and how others can benefit from who you are. “Those who have learned the power of sincere and selfless contribution experience life’s deepest joy: true fulfillment”. (Anthony Robbins). When I think about all the ‘things’ that are in my life, it’s clear that materialism is no substitute for connecting one’s self with a worthy cause, participating with people who share the same vision and values or doing something for someone without any expectations in return. The feeling of fullness is yours to enjoy because your heart place is alive with energy and purpose. Your soul feels nourished, your days are happy and you know you are making a difference.
Fulfillment can take on many forms. It can be experienced through volunteerism, connection with your spiritual self, working toward a far-reaching goal, being someone’s support or mentor or any activity that elevates your sense of self. It’s worth both time and energy to search for and find that vehicle or outlet which reflects your uniqueness and values your participation. And what a perfect time to uncover what this is for you than during Spring!
Denis Waitley says, “Personal satisfaction is the most important ingredient of success.” Feeling satisfied and knowing that who you are and what you do contributes to the well-being of people and community is powerful. Fulfillment is not the job you perform or the task you accomplish. It is how you feel about yourself because of the difference ‘being you’ makes.
So I ask you to consider this. Where are you in your life’s experiences as it relates to feeling fulfilled? Are you connected to something bigger than you? Are you involved in activities you find rewarding? Are you stretching your mind to explore new possibilities? And most importantly, are you willing to consider other options that could take you to a place you’ve not yet been?
This is the time to expand your self-awareness. This is the time to fill your soul to overflowing because you know your life has purpose. Find the answer or answers that are right for you. The journey is yours. No one else can offer what your life is all about. Make time for you. Use your precious life to give yourself one of the greatest rewards – fulfillment. Enjoy springtime. As you witness its beauty, consider the beauty that is you as well. Shine your light and let others know you are here to serve. My Friend, being of service will provide you with everything you need to live a life of overflowing fulfillment.
What brings you joy and fulfillment?

I absolutely love this. It is so beautifully written. I needed this today, as I can never truly find the words to express what I am looking for in a new career opportunity. And you just nailed it. Thank you for you!
What a wonderful endorsement! Thank you, Sherri, for following me! Keep me posted on developments!
I have been listening to Tony Robbins Books on cd as an area to help me grow while I am driving. Learning from others, mentor’s, spiritual advisors is so important. I am connected to God and work daily on strengthening my faith by spending time with him. Opening my heart every morning to receiving all the blessings he has in store for me through the Prayer of Jabez, “Bless me INDEED, Enlarge my Territory, May YOUR HAND be with me.” It is my daily affirmation as I chant what Robbins teaches…”I AM WORTHY TO RECEIVE ALL YOUR BLESSINGS”. Starting my day with this ritual leads to joy and fulfillment I find only in the everlasting eternal sense.
Thank you Bonnie!
I’m always grateful to you for YOUR encouragement and support. Keep those affirmations coming and enjoy all the joy that comes your way. You bless me with your friendship, Vicky!
