As we move through Oprah’s Lifeclass together, it was amazing to see people wanting more as the Facebook chat room lit up with people looking for the Livestream Webcast for last night. Since this is a graduate class in life lessons, Oprah is giving us time to do our work and webcasts will be on Friday’s now. This seems like a GIFT from the original launch of the class, when the webcasts were only going to be the first week. Thank you, Professor Winfrey! So, for those who are watching nightly on OWN, keep watching and do the Lifework on Oprah.com. For those who don’t have OWN (yet, says the forever optimist), take a look at the videos here and on Oprah.com and do the Lifework on Oprah.com. It’s all about YOU…and the lessons and tools that Oprah is providing us are amazing. Enjoy the gifts…and tonight, take a look and get a little closer to “Who You Were Meant to Be.”

From OWN: What Oprah Knows for Sure About Finding Your Calling – It won’t always make you famous or even pay the bills, but your job in life is to discover who you were meant to be.

From OWN: Oprah Celebrates People Who Follow Their Passions – Oprah looks back at past guests who found their true callings, including former Microsoft executive John Wood and Lisa Price, the creator of Carol’s Daughter beauty products.

From OWN: How Honoring Your Calling Feeds Everything in Your Life – After meeting Donna, a woman who devoted her life to rocking sick or abandoned babies, Oprah realized that if you use your life to serve the world, you will find that it also serves you.
Thanks Auntie Oprah, I needed to hear that. I am trying to find mine still @ 31. It seems like everything I try I am failing at it. I need to pray more & depend less on my families approval.
Lillienne, I am sure Oprah would also encourage you to just do one thing that you really want to do – on your own. Perhaps you will be inspired to do another thing. There is no failure – the things you tried didn’t work – which is feedback! Ben Franklin’s idea of a light bulb resulted in 999 ‘feedbacks’ before he achieved the light bulb. I am 71 and I have finally found my life purpose. But in looking back, I was serving my life purpose all along – for where I was on my life journey – at that point in my life. Oprah has been my mentor since I saw her first TV show. We have grown together – even though she has no clue who I am. I discovered that when something I thought I wanted to do didn’t work – I have learned to say, “OK, God, what’s next?” The answer is always amazing. Keep praying and keep watching Oprah – you will do it. Don’t ever give up.
