1. You Don’t Like Working For Others

You know your life has a greater purpose when the thought of working for someone else makes you a bit uncomfortable.

As your consciousness expands, your freedom begins to mean everything to you, and working for someone else is constricting and restricting.

You know you’re going to do great things, but it isn't through working for another person. It doesn't help your need for freedom and creativity. You need your own inspirations and you know you won't get that working for other people.

This is a combination of your need to be free and your true nature as a leader with a purpose to fulfil.

Your perspective is beyond a regular level, and you don’t follow the crowd. You don’t do what everyone else is doing. Instead, you go your own way. This allows you to do many positive things for humanity because you can see what most people miss because they are too occupied with working for someone else.

When you work for others, you’re not able to move freely as you want and to you, that's no way to live.

You don’t like routine very much.

Routines are undoubtedly helpful at times and as much as you hate working for others, you don’t like routine. You want to go and come as you want. You prefer to just flow with the universe when it calls.

Working for someone in an office keeps you stuck in a routine and that’s something you just can’t do. You can see clearly that routines like office hours are just a trap for those who want to remain in their comfort zones, and that’s not you.

You don’t want to be trapped in a constant routine.

The idea of having to work for someone and do the same things over and over again is like a nightmare.

2. You Don’t Worry Too Much About Money

This doesn’t mean that you have lots of money or that you don’t want any money. It means that you’ve seen and experienced things beyond the physical and money ceases to hold that much power. It holds less power because it doesn’t satisfy you.

Money alone never made you happy.

Although you need money for basic needs, it isn’t your ultimate purpose. You understand that money is necessary, but it only serves as a means.

What brings you true satisfaction is helping others. It comes from fulfilling your life's purpose and from the positive energy around you. It comes from seeing a big smile on the faces of those you’ve helped.

Your main concern is about helping others and doing things to serve humanity. You’re satisfied when you can change the life of another person and a smile or thank you is always your biggest reward.

You can’t put your trust in something as big as the universe and still worry about money. You understand that you’ll be taken care of no matter what.

3. You Only Take Inspired Action

When the universe calls, you answer. When the universe says go, you go. All your actions are triggered by inspiration. It’s your drive to do anything and without inspiration, you don’t feel like partaking in it.

You often ditch projects simply because you’re no longer inspired to do them. Even if you complete them, it's more of an obligation to complete them.

On the outside, this behavior may seem like your mind is scattered or that you’re just lazy, but that’s never the case when you have a higher purpose on this planet. Even when you’re doing nothing, you're doing something.

You run on inspiration and it’s through these inspired actions that you make your dreams come true.

As your consciousness expands, things that are predictable become boring and you’re not inspired to do them all. You want change. You want different. You want more.

You want to be inspired before you do something because it’s how you create your best work. You don't mind the hard work once you’re inspired. It becomes a pleasure to do it.

When you’re inspired, you wake up every day happy to do the work you love the most.

You want to be inspired before you do something because it’s how you create your best work.

Bonus Sign — You’re Super Sensitive

As a person with a greater purpose on this planet, you’ve been templated to be sensitive because it’s the only way you’ll see, hear, feel, and really know the universe.

Your sensitivity is how you can sense the vibe around you to know who needs help and where the trouble is. You’re able to help humanity because you’re sensitive to the energies around you.

You’re highly aware of your surroundings and you can even sense other people’s moods, and it affects you greatly. When someone you love is feeling down, you feel down too, and when they’re happy, you’re happy with them.

All of your actions are driven by this purpose, even when others think your sensitivity is a problem. Deep down, you know your sensitivity isn’t a curse but a superpower.
