PROTECT Your Joy and Purpose!

"Find & Keep/Protect Our JOY & PURPOSE For Our Lives"
(Share & Teach Family and Others!) - PART 4   

We make an effort to PROTECT that which is valuable to us. We may keep things in a safe at our home or even place items in a safety deposit box at the bank. Most people will either lock the doors on their vehicle when they leave something valuable behind OR they will lock it in the trunk.

We PROTECT that which is valuable.

Humans will fight "tooth and nail" to protect their family - especially their children. This is also true in the animal kingdom whether it be birds or bears! Have you ever had an angry "momma bird" attack you because you got too close to one of her "babies" that had gotten out of the nest? I have! And though I've never experienced this first hand, I've seen shows depicting how "momma bears" are relentless when it comes to protecting their baby cubs.

We PROTECT that which is valuable.

Let me ask you a question: How VALUABLE is your joy and purpose to you? I hope that it is of extreme value to you and for you to the point that you will fight "tooth and nail" to protect it! Now, I'm not talking about getting into a fist fight because someone "rains on your parade". However, I am talking about being aware of anyone and anything that would attempt to "rob you" of your joy and/or purpose and taking necessary action to prevent that from happening. 

It may mean removing yourself from a situation (either temporarily or permanently) that attempts to destroy your joy and/or purpose. It may mean exerting your positive influence in a way as to defeat, overcome and "squelch" the attempt to rob you of your joy/purpose. It may require you to immerse yourself in more positive information so as to better equip you to face such situations. It may mean changing friends and detaching yourself from those that constantly put a drain on your joy and/or purpose. 

You've put quite a bit of effort into "discovering" your joy and your purpose for your life and it may not have been easy. Continue to INVEST in the information needed to continually add to the "library of your mind". This is how you continue to prepare yourself for those "down days" and/or those times when others attempt to rob you of your joy and cast doubt on your purpose. 

PROTECT IT for it is of GREAT VALUE!
