The Life Purpose Podcast on Life Signatures Radio

📢 New #Podcast! 1157. Does Purpose Evolve? #Purpose Have you ever seen something that doesn't have purpose? Can you find a single human being that was created for no purpose at all. I believe there isn't anyone since creation that fits that profile. So, in our purpose pursuits, there are mistakes that we make. The greatest mistake is doing life with total disregard for Purpose. The second mistake...

📢 New #Podcast! If growth is our ambition in life, then seeking comfort would be one of the worst mistakes we would make. I am not saying that we should shun comfort and coziness wen it comes our way... Just that Comfort should not be the main agenda of our existence. There are many reasons for this. In this episode, I summarize only three reasons why comfort is our worst goal. Listen to this.

📢 New #Podcast! The paradox of life is that getting what you want at times will happen when you go through what you don't want or like. It is true that there is no growth if there is only comfort. So why do we set goals mostly seeking comfort and coziness. Fun is great as comfort is, but if comfort is the main target in our lives, we end up not growing. Listen to this.

📢 New #Podcast! As much as we all naturally gravitate towards nice things and comfort, we now know that they are detrimental to our lives especially if our ambition is growth. Denzel Washington said emphatically that "ease is a greater threat to progress than hardship". The message in there is important to note especially if your ambition is to pursue your purpose to the hilt. Listen to this.

📢 New #Podcast! Trailblazing is going where nobody has and make a dent on the earth. At least that's my definition. Many of our contemporaries are doing amazing things by daring to step out and make a difference. What makes them tick? What's the psychology behind their dare? What can we learn from them? I had a conversation with Diana Ninsiima, the National Director of BNI Uganda Chapter about th...

📢 New #Podcast! Inherently, we want the ease of life. Whenever we set goals, we seldom set stretching or growth goals. We hide them under the banner of comfort goals. Cars, money, bliss, adventure, experiences and so on are what we create as objects of our goals. Nothing wrong with those. However, if growth is your ambition in life, these kinds of goals are the worst to have. They should instead...

📢New #Podcast! Scot M Peck in the classic "The Road Less Travelled" told us something very profound about problems. I have lifted that quote and shared with you in this episode. We are talking about the goals we need to have in our lives Some goals are very soft and uninspiring especially if all they target is comfort. Growth ought to be the object of our pursuits. Listen to this.

📢New #Podcast! If we are growing, we are always stretching. If we are stretching, we are always uncomfortable. That's the paradox. We all want comfort. When we are comfortable, we are not stretching and hence we are not growing. In this episode, we start going deeper into the subject matter: If growth is your ambition, then comfort is your worst goal. Listen to this.

📢New #Podcast! We begin a new series with this episode talking about growth. The three topics covered on this channel are #Purpose, #Productivity and #Resilience. These three topics can never be handled without talking about growth. There will always be a trade-off when it comes to intentionally choosing to grow. That's what we shall be covering in this series. Listen to this.

📢 New #Podcast! We have a choice to make in life. It is about living life with abundance and to the fullest. Thi choice is between having fun once in a while (Thank God It's Friday style) and enjoying everyday life. If we led our lives primarily to look for fun, we will move from one place to another and still feel empty. It turns out that as long as fun is the objective of our lives, it remains...

📢New #Podcast! Work-life balance? You mean work is not life? I saw someone's podcast episode titled, "Just life, no balance"😊 So how do we integrate fun into our lives so that there is no compartmentalization or fun and work? How do we make it seamless so that we don't have Mondays and love Fridays? A study in the US decades back revealed that most heart attacks happen on Monday mornings. What c...

📢 New #Podcast! Roosevelt said, "Far much better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the great twilight that neither knows victory nor defeat" Joel Jaffar Aita lives the above dictum. In this conversation, he takes us through his mental disposition of...

📢New #Podcast! Is fun something we go to get or a life we live daily? When we talk about having fun, people seldom think of work. Somehow, automatically, the idea of having fun at work and with purpose pursuit seems repulsive! In this episode, we talk more about the subject matter and unveil how possible it is to have fun in our purpose pursuits and even at work. Listen to this.

📢 New #Podcast! A friend of mine worked as missionary in South Sudan. She told me something profound about the people and days. They don't know when Monday is or any other day or the week. She has to ring a bell or remind them that it's a Sunday. We, on the other hand, love Fridays and kind of hate Mondays. When did that begin? We even have a hashtag #TGIF that trends every week. In this episode,...

📢 New Podcast! Playing ball with your son is fun. Taking your daughter out for a *Daddy-Daughter Dance" is fun. Going to a stadium to cheer and support your favorite team is fun... especially if you win. Going on a date with your spouse and having exclusive time together is fun! But all that is just half the story. In this episode, let's give an all-encompassing definition of fun. It's very instr...

📢 New Podcast! In a conversation with some people somewhere about "work-life balance", I asked the question: when did that stuff start? Was it in the garden of Eden at creation? They admitted that it didn't, and somewhere along the path, things changed. The idea of fun in life has been peddled as of life is a whole ardours existence that needs to be spiced up with fun. Therefore, we go all the wa...

📢 New #Podcast! Fun and purpose. Are they mutually exclusive? Is it possible to have fun while pushing purpose?! What's your definition of fun? There is a school of thought that the people on purpose pursuit are too serious for life and therefore don't have fun. Jesus said, "I have food to eat you know nothing about". He was saying that what they thought about him not having fun and fulfillment f...

📢 New #Podcast! Fun is something that most of us live for. The human has been created to experience the full spectrum and vibrancy of life. Indeed, life ought to be fun! In fact, life without fun is not worth living. So this begs the question: Does purpose eliminate fun out of life? Given that purpose is all about the benefit and transformation of others, does it hinder us from having fun? Let's...

📢 New #Podcast! Today's episode brings to a close a series of conversations I have had for the month of July with writers. There has been so much to learn from each of them. Today's guest, Charles Onyango Obbo is a well respected writer and journalist that is seasoned with consistency in writing weekly articles for 29 years without missing a single week. I had a brief conversation with him and I...

📢 New #Podcast! To be selfless is a desirable thing. However, it is not automatic. There are some things that we ought to do in order to get there and at the end of the day, we can't really graduate from it. This is the last episode in the series Where we have discussed many aspects of Selflessness. Three are five or more ways that we can use to be selfless. Here is the fifth way. Listen to this.

📢 New #Podcast! How do we do life? Do we live for events and ignore the intervals? You have heard about the TGIF craze... thank God it's Friday! It's as if the whole week is a prison devoid of fun which can only be delivered in two fleeting days. So, is purposeful living devoid of fun? Is life structured in such a way that fun is a compartment that's different from purpose? Let's find that out in...

📢New #Podcast! Any time someone is dishonest, you might easily connect it to selfishness. Their self interest is way above others. They want to protect their own skin. On the same token, every time someone is honest, perhaps even to their own detriment, you can easily see selflessness lurking around. To be selfless is to be honest...at the very least. Listen to this.

📢 New #Podcast! We all know that selflessness is largely an admirable human trait. But as we have already seen, it's not something that is switched on automatically. It takes effort and intention. If we wanted to become selfless, we will have to put ourselves in other people's shoes more often. A life of purpose can easily be obtained by doing this, seeing that purpose, for the most part, is for...

📢 New #Podcast! The default mode for humans, unfortunately, is always on comfort and things that don't require energy, focus and intention. Without these three things, we are our worst enemies. Selflessness is one of those things that need deliberate focus and intentionality about it. In this episode, let's see some of the ideas we can deploy in being intentional about selflessness. Listen to thi...

📢New #Podcast! Selflessness is a great trait, no doubt. It's an attractive and desirable character that's ideal for all humans. The interesting thing is that it's not automatic in us, but there are seeds of selflessness in all of us. It grows with practice. This means that without focus, we couldn't expect to be selfless just because we have the potential. That's why we need to know where to star...
