Have you heard the saying by Norman Vincent Peale, “Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars”? Well baby, you are among the stars because you are destined to be a star. It runs through your veins. The sky isn’t even the limit for you. You have big dreams and an even bigger vision for your life.
Make your stamp and live large. Fame, fortune, massive public appeal. It is all possible for you. You are determined to make the world a better place from your presence. And you tend to do this with great ease and sophistication. You have lots of natural skills and talents, and from a young age, you’ve had an inner drive to light people up, to move them and inspire them. You know how to entertain people. Whether it was dancing to your favorite pop tunes on your makeshift stage, holding a wooden spoon as your microphone, or looking in the mirror practicing your Oscar and Grammy acceptance speeches, you’ve known you are destined for the spotlight.
Whether you want to grow your social media following to prime time influencer status and make mega bucks from brand collaboration, or rub elbows with A-listers who support your work and share your talent with their audiences . . . Big, bold and beautiful is your approach to life. Being on Oprah and Ellen is just the start—you want your own talk show and Netflix special. You dream of soldout arena tours, and you want millions of loyal viewers/followers tuning in to your every move. For you it isn’t a question of if it is possible—it is a question of when it will happen.
You are on stage, and all eyes are on you. It’s not just about you (although you do love being the center of attention)—it’s about your audience. You love the way you can make people feel by just performing and using your talent and skills. For a moment in time, you can help them escape their life with your abilities. You have the super power of making people feel. You believe one of the greatest gifts you can give someone is a moment of reprieve, and with your abilities, you do this effortlessly.
You see the vision. You have crystal-clear clarity on what you want. Most people struggle with trying to figure out their ideal life, but not you, you know what you want. You just don’t know how to get it.
The holdup is the lack of knowledge and clarity on what right action to take to get you to your big vision. You wonder . . . what is the best plan for follow-through? This breathtaking vision for your life is all well and good, but you struggle sometimes with putting the vision into action. The problem is, you don’t know what steps to take to get to where you want to go. You may feel stuck, off track or drowning in comparison. When was the last time you thought, How do people make it look so easy? How are they making money online and with their social channels? How did that person I follow get 1,000 new followers overnight? If you struggle with the how, recognize it is in the now. By taking this quiz, you are already a step closer to knowing more of your true self. Each step you take will guide you along your journey, so stay close to the things that inspire you and resources that can help you grow.
How can you be of service and help others with your skills, talents and gifts?
Before we go any further, let me introduce myself…
I’m Shannon, Bestselling Inspirational Author, Global Speaker and Empowerment Coach, Business and Writing Mentor, World Traveler, Dog Lover, and Joy Seeker.
Over a decade ago, I left my high-paying corporate job in advertising behind to follow my heart and become a writer. Today I’m living my dream life as the author of five bestselling books (with the sixth on its way) on the psychology of getting unstuck and finding fulfillment, self-love and lasting joy.
My purpose is to help you live your purpose, and that means awakening to your true self and having the courage to be who you are meant to be.
I’ve combined my passion for travel, adventure, personal development, creativity and spirituality into a global brand and thriving company, Play with the World, that is founded on the principle that life is better together, and support is just a click away. I am here to support, uplift, guide and inspire you into the next phase of your life. Fulfillment, peace and abundance are yours.
Today, I teach joy seekers just like you how to discover your true self and step into the life you are made for.
Your purpose is to live more on purpose, and now that you understand yourself a bit more, you have what it takes to shine your light and live in your truth. We are here for personal expansion, so make this life your best life ever. Be proud of who you are. The world needs more passionistas and that’s you. Don’t be afraid to be all that you are meant to be.
Your next step is to align yourself with people who inspire and uplift you. Whether that be influencers you are motivated by or public figures who have achieved what you are working toward.
Consider investing in a mentor, someone who knows the path of least resistance to help you achieve your dreams. Follow accounts of influencers you love and support their work, share their wins authentically and become a super fan. When you support others, the universe supports you.
Moving forward, instead of focusing on what you can get, start to think about what you can give. How can you be of service and help others with your skills, talents and gifts?
You’ve known from a young age that you were made for more. You always knew you would be in the public eye, but until now you just weren’t sure how.
Your natural charm, wit and charismatic nature combined with your ability to transcend people’s experience when they are in your presence.
Your true self is the appeal. You are enough as you are. Chances are you’ve been thinking it needs to look a specific way and there is a right next step to take, but you don’t need to prove yourself or get attention to be liked and loved. There isn’t one direct path to superstardom.
So for you, my dear, it is all about authenticity. Be more of your true self, share yourself and watch how things transform. Not only will you feel more connected to yourself, but you will attract more followers who need what you share. You are already so dearly loved as you are. As soon as you realize this, on a soul level, everything will transform for you. Instead of looking for validation and appreciation from others, seek it within yourself. You can have a life of luxury lived beyond your wildest dreams, and you can start today.
Think about your future self and where you want to be in 5–10 years. Now ask your inner guide what steps you can take to get there. Don’t overthink it . . . just let your true self guide you, because your true self is your best self and is always rooting for you. Celebrate the journey and know that you are destined to be famous in your own right. Look out world, here you come. Don’t shy away from your skills and talents, practice your passion and start to show yourself more. The world needs that special thing that makes you come alive.
There’s no shortage of resources for you, passionista babe. These should get you started, but this is just the beginning of your beautiful, blissful journey to stepping into your purpose and shining your bright, gorgeous light.
I’m here to support you on your journey. My purpose is to help you live more on purpose, so dive in with joy. And I’m constantly creating new material for you that empowers, inspires and activates your true self.
