I believe one of the keys to reaching your dreams, achieving your goals and walking the path to success greatly depends on knowing who you are and where you're going.

So, who are you?


Who am I?

I am who I am, a wonderfully and uniquely created human being who was carefully and strategically woven together with great loving and caring hands.


I am here to be a blessing to all that I encounter, giving all that I am able with what I myself have been given. And it is my hope that I touch as many people as possible along the way whether it be easing some pain, cheering some up with just a smile, to give support, comfort, and help some to gain understanding when they feel lost, defeated or confused. And hope that in so doing, I show a glimmer of the love of my creator.


My purpose is to wisely use the gifts and talents that lie within me to not only better myself, but to help my fellow man in any way that I can, giving unselfishly when I am asked and even when I am not if I see a need, but also having the wisdom to know when some would take advantage of it and gently ease out of that situation trying not to offend, and yet recognizing at times I must stand up in righteous indignation.


I am traveling down the path that I have been set upon intent on fulfilling all that I have been commissioned to do so that when my journey here is through, I can be rewarded with the words, Well done! I am continually going to the next level as I learn, implement and share the lessons on the present one.


All of this pertains to my personal life as well as in the business world. It is the same in both for I am who I am...

    Terra,
    You are totally inspiring. I have always thought that any sucess goes hand in hand with your spritual well being, of which you have written about so beautifully. The more you give the more you receive. Great karma.

      I wholly believe you have to know who you are and where you are going in order to be successful in life.

      So may I ask in respect to my original post, who are you?

      Thanks Victoria!

      In that vein, I guess I would say that I am a freelance writer and voice over actress working in Internet Marketing who believes that in order to inspire others, you must first inspire yourself.

    You have to share your knowledge, expertise and even monetary wealth in order to gain more or be successful. You have to view every people around you as your stepping stone to your success. That they themselves would help you in achieving your goals.

      I like your first sentence, but I really don't view people as stepping stones as it rather sounds like you are looking at people with the view of "what can you do for me?" Almost like looking to use people and that just goes against my make up.

      People have much more value than just what they can do to benefit me. Sorry.

    Nice share Miss Terrak.You have good knowledge of spiritualism I guess.But the day a man separates himself from his name, position,designation etc and knows himself detached from all the bonds he is empowered to solve all the huddles of his life.

      Hmmm, I see where you're coming from, but I don't view my name, designation or position as a bond; as things that hold me in bondage, though.

      They are just merely some of the identifiers as to who I am, but don't change who I am at all.

    I think it's a good question, Terra, and one that we should try to answer regularly. I'm a person that needs my business to both make money *and* help others. I believe they need not be mutually exclusive, and that I don't have to wait to help others until I've first made a bunch of money. I don't have all the answers yet, but I guess to answer "who am I" I would say "I am an innovative seeker with practical goals"
