In a perfect world, we would fully understand what Deepak Chopra calls the Law of Dharma. According to Chopra (1994), the Sanskrit term dharma roughly translates “the purpose of life.” The components of this law tell us that we are spirits having human experiences, and that each of us has a unique talent, a means of doing something in a special way better than anyone else on the planet. Finally, after recognizing our spirit and our unique gift, we find ultimate fulfillment in assisting others through loving service.

For me, my Encore Career is something bigger than extending on my past accolades such as they are… its about doing something radically different that allows me to be fully alive. It’s about passion; it’s about leaving a mark and changing a not so wonderful world; it’s about belonging and; it may be about, but is definitely more important than the bucks. It’s about my Dharma, my purpose in life.

So tell me what makes your life better today than yesterday and not as good as tomorrow. It’s your Encore, it’s your purpose in life, come on and share it with us!
