There is gold inside of you
There was a time, in the land of Thailand. The government decided to create a highway along a village. Unfortunately, there is a precious Buddhist monastery along this road – more or less like a catholic symbol. So, the government made a plan, not to destroy the precious Buddhist monastery, but to remove it and place it in another place.
It was not quite long, that the engineers started working in order to remove this Buddhist monastery. They tried all they could to keep it safe, not destroying it all. But, as they kept on trying, it kept on loosing shape.
They managed to move it to another location. After getting there, they started reshaping it, but it was still loosing its shape because it is made of clay. So, they left it like that.
Suddenly, all the clay wiped off and voila, it was made of gold. That symbol, they thought it was worth $50,000 but now it is worth millions of dollars. Intuitively, you are made of clay vessel, but inside of you there is something worth million of dollars. When God created you, he had a purpose in mind to fulfill, it is that purpose he put in your heart when he created you.
That purpose is the gold inside of you. If you can pay enough attention to it, you will discover it and things will begin to fall into good shape.
There is nobody God did not create without a purpose. That is why you see we all are distinct. You are only the one God created like that no other one can have the same finger print like yours. Forests may look alike, but there are no same two trees. Every tree has its own distinction.
The reason why you see many people being oppressed and depressed is simply because they have not yet discover the gold.
They are doing whatever other people are doing; they have forgotten that everyone is made for a different purpose in life.
So, stop experimenting with your life – that is very dangerous. You did not create yourself, God created you for a purpose. Though, you are surprise to your parents when you were born, but you are not a surprise to God. Simply means, never be what other people want you be.
Then, how do know God’s purpose for your life which is the gold inside of you.
1. When you are interested in something that do not exalt above the knowledge of God.
2. You have passion for that your interest.
3. You are ready to persevere despite the great obstacles it has
I believe these three things will help you figure out that precious thing inside of you.
Our live is the best thing we can ever have. Stay blessed

Do What You Love For A Living
A couple of years back, I was unhappy in my job and was searching for a sense of purpose in life. I longed to do something that was more meaningful, fulfilling and rewarding. One day, whilst looking for inspiration online, I discovered some of Wayne Dyer’s audio material. He was talking about living with ‘a sense of purpose, a sense of mission’, and I was very taken with his message that it is possible to do what you love for a living. Over the course of the next year or so, I listened to a lot of his material, and I became convinced that doing what you love and making a living at it was not only possible; to do anythinhg else was an insult to the universe. Hopefully I can convince you of the same with this article.
I have always loved music and I started to play the guitar when I was sixteen. I loved it and soon had a reputation for being the best guitarist in town. I would sit for hours and work out songs on the guitar, something for which I had a real talent. However, I had never really thought about playing the guitar for a living and ended up taking the ‘sensible’ and ‘realisitic’ route into a job that, despite paying well, left me unfulfilled and frustrated. We are often told that our passions are alright ‘as a hobby’ but that they won’t pay the bills and family members are often the worst for doing this. But Wayne Dyer really helped me to undo a lot of this societal brainwashing and I got to thinking about how I could get paid to sit and play the guitar all day instead of working for the man. After a period of reflection, I hit on the idea of making videos to teach the stuff I enjoyed working out so much on the guitar and selling them online.
So, I set to work. It wasn’t easy. I came up against a lot of skepticism and discouragement from family and friends. I didn’t know the first thing about setting up a website and I had no capital whatsover. In fact, I was in quite a lot of debt. Nonetheless, I was determined to succeed and I just started putting one foot in front of the other and finding out how it was all done. I started making the video lessons in my spare time, got a website going all by myself and although I have had a million and one hurdles along the way, the site is now making enough money to live from and I get so much encouragement from my students that I know I am following the right path. Now, I get up when I want and spend the day doing what I love and more money keeps rolling in. If I can do it so can you.
If you really want to do something, then with enough determination, hard-work and persistence, you’re going to make things happen. There is no other way it can be. If you can believe in yourself, even during times when you seem to be getting absolutely nowhere, and keep the dream alive, you will be able to do what you love for a living. If you can ignore the skepticism and discouragement of family and friends who sit around making excuses all day and trying to sully your plans, you are going to succeed. End of story.
