Who is purpose for?

If you're satisfied with the status quo (internal and external), finding, defining, and leveraging your purpose is probably not of much interest or use.

 

The roadmap provided by our educational and occupational systems is seductive—do what you're told (and what everyone else is doing), and you'll be supplied with conveniences, distractions, and occasional pleasures.

 

But for some of us, this status quo existence isn't sufficient.

 

Do you identify as any of, or some combination of, the following

  • Seeker
  • Server
  • Experimenter
  • Explorer
  • Learner
  • Leader

 

If so, then the trappings of "success" you're instructed to pursue at school and on the job are probably not enough. You strive to be and do more and better.

 

Why not do so with, for, and on purpose?

 

And here's a VITAL element of purpose. Although the who you need to start with is yourself, purpose-driven living is about working with and for others.

 

You enhance your life most through endeavors that serve others.

 

Purpose works best when you practice it from the inside out.

 

Got purpose?

 

 Where do you think purpose lies?
