Quote
“It’s difficult to feel the same clarity of purpose in the busyness of
daily life. Yet, this is the first step. We must ask ourselves what
our busyness is all about.”
Pg4, The Power of Purpose by Richard J. Leider

Notes from Dietta…
Thank you for joining me for another issue of Balance Boosters. I know
there are several new subscribers this month and I would like to welcome
each of you. I would also like to thank my loyal subscribers who have
been with me since the very beginning. God bless you!
A couple of weeks ago I got excited and sent out an invitation to all
of you to join the Women in Balance discussion group. I’m sorry to send
the extra email but I wanted to tell you all as soon as possible. The
WIB group is a place where you can share your support with other busy
women and hopefully find encouragement and friendship. We will try to
discuss relevant topics each week that will help us grow and move
forward on our journey to balance. So far I have met some interesting
women and I am so thankful! If you haven’t already, please join us by
sending an email to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/womeninbalance

Feature Article
The Power of Purpose
By: Dietta L. Stewart
When children first begin talking one of the first words they learn is
“no.” As they expand their vocabulary the word “why” rises to the top
of the list of frequently used words. When our children ask why over
and over again it can get to be unnerving but the wisdom in this word
can be helpful to us on our journey to balanced living.
“Purpose teaches us to simplify our lives and focus on the things that
really matter.”
Stating your purpose is nothing new. I’m sure you have heard it
before. I spent years trying to define my purpose because I felt it had
to be big and fancy. But I discovered that purpose can be simple.
Simplicity in purpose does not negate its power. It may very well
strengthen it.
In my book, The Balanced Woman, I devote an entire chapter to the
discovery of purpose. The main tool is to discover who you are. Get to
know yourself. Find out what you are good at and what you aren’t so
good at. Be honest.
Simply decide to accept the truth inside you. We are not designed to
be all things to all people. But we are designed to be who we are,
finding that valuable person inside of us and shaping our lives around
the things we are equipped and made to do brings peace, balance and
power.
