4 Questions to Help Your Genius Find You

If you're having trouble finding your life purpose, relax. We've got good news for you... What you love to do - what we call your inner genius - finds you. You don't find it.

Let me explain...

Have you seen the movie "The Legend of Bagger Vance"?

Will Smith, who plays Bagger Vance, says to Matt Damon, who plays a golf pro who has "lost his swing", "You can't find your swing. What you've got to do is, you have to practice so that your swing finds you."

Likewise, you can't find what you truly love until you practice. Then, your life purpose finds you.

What do you practice?

Practice doing things...

You are best at,What others say you're best at,What you're most passionate about, andThat you can money at.

Here are 4 questions that will put the cogs in motion so that your genius finds you more quickly and easily.

What do you think you are best at? For example, I (Phil) think I am best at creating learning opportunities, having fun, and deep listening.What do others say you're best at? Example: Others say I'm best at "achieving results" and engaging people in creative processes. There is a difference between what you are best at and what others say you're best at. Be brutally honest with yourself.Are you passionate about that thing that you think that you are best at and others say you are best at? Are you passionate about it? Yes or no? Example: Yes, I am passionate about achieving results and creative engagements.Can you make money at that? Can you take what you are best at, what other people think you are best at and what you are passionate about that you and others think you are best at and make money at that? Yes or no? Is it a business? Or, is it a hobby? Ex: Yes, I can make money helping people (and businesses) achieve big results. No, I can't make money engaging people in creative processes.

In review, your genius is your unique talents. You can't find your genius. What you've got to do is, you have to practice so that your genius finds you. Start your practice with 4 questions:
