Living in any Western (and even increasingly so, non-Western countries) today, is like being trapped inside a 45-gallon oil drum (a metal drum large enough to contain an average sized person, and which echoes horrendously when any sound is made inside). Now imagine turning a ghetto blaster on full-blast, while having a multi-channel TV link transmitting full visual media on all of its channels simultaneously. Add a small whirlwind and throw in loose pages from a variety of magazines and newspapers, and one has created a scale model of the media storm with which we are bombarded daily, and which is nigh on impossible to avoid.

We are all, in effect, being forced into a situation where our frazzled, over-stimulated minds just cannot function effectively. One needs quiet to reason, and especially to reflect on thoughts and past experiences.

Now, imagine a huge 10,000 piece jigsaw puzzle. Each piece represents each event in your life, good and bad. All of them happened for a reason, and all of them have their correct place in the jigsaw puzzle. Just as building a puzzle takes time and patience, building your Life Puzzle takes time and patience and more importantly respite from the distractions in the oil drum, your mind needs uninterrupted time to slot each event of your life into the correct place in the gradually unfolding picture, until the end result (your life purpose) becomes as clear as a completed jigsaw puzzle.

Just as one can’t fully discern the picture of an incomplete jigsaw puzzle, one cannot fully understand your life purpose until you’ve completed your Life Purpose puzzle. The unique combination of events and experiences in your life, together with the reason each happened, culminate in your unique Life Purpose. Very few people ever complete their Life Puzzle, because no-one has ever explained how to do it, and the Western lifestyle has too many distractions to ever attain it.
