With all the media attention youve probably become aware that there is something huge going on in the world, but are you part of this bigger picture? Day-to-day youll be busy contributing to your household: cleaning tidying, earning money and taking care of your partners and your childrens needs as best you can. On a home front youve probably got it sorted. The thing is, when you flick the TV on and catch the news occasionally, the images of this bigger picture flash up. And youll probably not notice the bigger picture. This is because ordinary, everyday life can become trance like. When I say this I mean we do the same things at the same time of the day almost everyday of the week without even thinking like Groundhog Day. It starts when were young and its what I call conditioned logic. Conditioned logic can be stifling. Its doing what youve been taught to do by parents, teachers, religious and political leaders, friends, peers and employers. And in this conditioned-logic, trance we dont really notice the bigger picture or even know what it is. I coach many people. All of them come to me because they want to find their Life Purpose that unique gift that they share in a distinctive way with the world. Once thats been uncovered and they continue their journey with greater meaning and direction they become aware that they are not only a part of the bigger picture, but have enormous power within it in fact they become it. People on a life purpose journey become some of the most powerful people around. As they resolve the issues and conflict within themselves they raise their consciousness to the cause and effect they have on their families. Their stroppy teenager becomes manageable, even helpful. Their stale relationships spark into new life and their career reaches beyond their dreams. People on Life Purpose journeys become the bigger picture. They see the effect they are having in their community or lack of it. They stop shutting their doors and hoping that neighbourhood problems will magically vanish. They become active they not only participate in social change, they become the social change. Gently they lead others, by example or by voice, to newer and higher benchmarks and before you know it changes are happening personally, socially and environmentally. Being part of the bigger picture and living purposefully is the most powerful way of living. Will you be part of the bigger picture? I hope so. Best Wishes Jo Ball
