Do you know your Universal assignments?

I had a Universal assignment to lose my sister when I was 11 years old.

So that I would learn about loss very early on. And would be able to support others through loss later in my life.

I had a Universal assignment to have an alcoholic father.

I chose him so that I would be independent and learn not to depend on men but to take 100% responsibility for my life.

I had a Universal assignment that school didn’t come easy for me.

I placed an order for 2 kids that share the same struggle.

I also believe this is a reward life for me. That I am meant prosper. Another Universal assignment.

My husband and I have a Universal assigment to be together and raise these kids together. AND it’s a Universal assignment that he has a temper and that we’re so incredibly opposite. (Hint: these Universal assignments are also insights into the Price of Admission, mentioned in my last email, meaning things we should NOT bitch about…) 

My son being born early and colicky was a Universal assignment. I was meant to experience that so that I would really understand what women go through and so that I could more appreciate the good times.

I have a Universal assignment to travel the world. It lights my soul on fire.

I have a Universal assignment to be surrounded by transformational leaders and amazing humanitarians.

So I’ll be challenged to raise the bar and always inspired to do better.

I have a Universal assignment to teach what I know. I can’t experience anything without then teaching it.

I have a Universal assignment to help Moms find more lasting happiness.

It’s why I’m here. And what fulfills me.
