In Part 1 of Love - Your Soulmate, we discussed what a Soulmate is, the different types of relationships, emotions / feelings regarding relationships, and scenarios on how a Soulmate could be identified by not only observing actions and reactions of feeling and emotions, but by first observing your own actions and reactions of feeling and emotions.

If you are genuinely seeking your Soulmate, you may like to try the following -

1. First, find the emotions most dominant in you and write them down (both positive and negative). To assist you, take a note of how you generally behave throughout each day -

* Are you happy and excited to be getting up each morning to attend your daily duties, or has it become a daily chore and bore, or maybe just a regular routine?

* Is your daily life a grind, or a powerful connection with dreams and aspirations? Is it just there to perform?

Whatever your behaviour, take note, and try to view yourself behaving in this manner.

2. Take a note of your dreams - things that you would rather be doing. Note also how deeply your desire to pursue those dreams -

* Would it be an exciting sport or relaxing by the beach?

* Would you rather be singing to a crowd or painting a countryside scene?

* Would you lie and cheat to achieve your dreams?

* Would you move only when an opportunity presents itself necessary?

3. You should now have a clear idea of what type of person you are, what you would like to be, and how determined you are to get there. The next step is to determine those characteristics required to reach your dreams -

* If you view your life as a grind, then enthusiasm and energetic energies could help to find opportunities

* Being happy and excited each morning is most unusual unless -

o You love the life you are living

o You understand the 'meaning' of life

o You don't have a care in the world

Most of us feel happy and excited some of the time, so when we are, we should be using this time to move closer to our dreams, because when the opposite emotions of depression and lethargy become more dominant, movement is restricted

* If your life is simply a series of routines with very little movement regarding your feelings, then that is good to a degree because you will not be subject to external forces as much. However if you wish to pursue your dreams, you should have more of a daredevil approach - and this could be difficult

* Is your life a chore and a bore? Then you are in the majority, because most people's lives are. To reach your dreams from this scenario requires you to sell yourself, because you're not the only one with such dreams. Become determined, focussed and prepared for any opportunity that may arise

4. Once we have determined all the above and have a better understanding of our behavioural patterns, why would we need a Soulmate - especially when their behaviours need to be examined just as yours was, and the end result should be that you compliment each other. That's harder than figuring yourself out

But if you truly are seeking your Soulmate, why rely on 'gut' feelings as in the poem of Part 1, when you can work it out methodically with a much higher success rate.
