Who Are You? What Is Your Purpose? Dr. Gary Epler – Know who you are by knowing where you’re thinking from moment by moment. Be your authentic self. Be human. Quiet the primitive brain self-centered stress center. Think from your heart with kindness and think from the mind, which is outside the body, with creativity to help others. If you are being your authentic self, then you automatically know your purpose, and it’s an inspiring people-centered purpose. Knowing your purpose gives you better health, resilience, and meaningful relationships. You have increased creativity, performance, and a happier, more enjoyable life. Finally, you will make decisions based on your purpose, and these decisions will have a positive impact on the world around you. Being a non-authentic person means thinking from the primitive brain, which is negative and obsessed with self-centered thoughts. Non-authentic people are often unclear and confused about their purpose, or their purpose can be self-centered resulting in doing anything to get what they want. Their decisions are egocentric and what’s best for themselves, not what’s best for other people or the community. Who are you? Be your authentic self. Stay true to yourself. What is your purpose? It’s from the mind with creativity to help others and from your heart with kindness. Be human. Dr. Gary Epler / Eplerian Life Philosophy
