Two simple words have made an incredible difference in my life over the last two years. The two words are love deeply and I like to think of them as my life mission.
I found myself feeling overwhelmed, pulled in many different directions, and wanting to show up in a more meaningful way for the people around me. As I prayed, meditated, and spent some quiet time thinking, I decided to create a life mission.
What’s a life mission?
It’s two words that instantly remind me of what’s important. It reminds me of how I want to show up in the world. It’s simple, easy to remember, and immediately puts things into focus.
My life mission: LOVE DEEPLY
My life mission is to “love deeply”. It’s how I want to show up at home, work, church, and inside my community. Every time I remind myself to “love deeply” it instantly puts things into perspective.
Loving deeply has 3 simple steps. It’s all about spending time with people, holding space, and letting them know they’re loved. Here’s what it looks like to me:
Listen
hold space, listen with curiosity, try not to think about what I’m going to say next. Just listen
Encourage
give love, remind people they’re not alone, give themselves grace
Uplift
share truth, let people know that they are enough exactly the way they are
That’s it! Pretty simple right? Well simple enough to understand, but harder to implement. Even though I have far to go in loving deeply, having this simple phrase has helped to center me on a daily basis.
Do you have a life mission?
If so, I’d love to hear about it! If not, you are welcome to steal mine or create one of your own.
