Living a Life in Full Bloom with Elizabeth Murray – Part 2

In part 2 of this conversation with Elizabeth Murray and Rochel Marie Lawson, the conversation starts with Elizabeth explaining how she has come up with the practices that lead to living a life in full bloom. A life in full bloom is where we find our meaning and purpose by using our gifts and passions to contribute.

• We all experience all 4 pathways in our lifetime.
• You can choose the pathway with anything that you are drawn to. It is what you should practice
• Each of one us is experiencing different seasons.
• We have all been pruned differently.
• We can always choose happiness
• Be purposeful in our life means we have to contribute. The sense of accomplishment is not what you acquire but what you contribute
• Choose meaningful contributions over materialism/consumerism
• Create a life with purpose, meaning, and balance
• Life mapping – Finding your north star
• Look at what you love
• Look at your gifts
• Look at what you think the world needs
• A lot of people’s sources of happiness are external sources.
• Happiness is connecting with yourself, nature and others.
• Learn to celebrate your accomplishments – the big and little ones.
• Look outside the window and see something of beauty and feel that beauty within yourself.
