Finding your purpose by eliminating the D's & F's with Dr. Rosemarie Downer

D's & F's diminish or destroy our purpose. What are we talking about? Doubt, Discouragement, Distraction, Fear, Frustration, and Failure, just to name a few. All of these are threats to our purpose. 

Doubting yourself discounts and diminishes your abilities. Discouragement happens when we don't get the results we expect. Too much discouragement results in depression and feelings of failure. 

Depression steals our hope and ambition by dragging us down into a dark hole and keeping us there under the weight of painful memories. 

The good news is that there is an antidote to every one of these purpose killers! 

In this episode we speak to ⁠Dr. Rosemarie Downer⁠, retired university professor and social science researcher for the United States federal government. Rosemarie is the author of ⁠Above Defeat, The High Call of Forgiveness, D's & F's Won't Do⁠, and many more books that help people find hope and purpose. She is also the host of the All Things Faith Walk Podcast.

Dr. Downer shares her "antidote" against all the D's & F's. It's free. It takes less than a minute to "take in" every day. It is the power-filled word of God as recorded in Philippians 4:8 which says, “Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things.” Dr. Downer recommends taking this scripture like we would a vitamin every day!

Finally, Rosemarie shares a special message for anyone who is doubting yourself, is discouraged, distracted, depressed, fearful, or frustrated. If this is you, don't miss this.

YOU MATTER and your purpose matters. There are people who need YOU, and when you find and live in your purpose, your life will be better, and your corner of the world will be a better place. Best of all, you will have peace and joy and a sense of contentedness you cannot get any other way.
