WHAT IS PURPOSE?......

 

• “Everyone has a purpose in life…a unique gift or special talent to give to others. And when we blend this unique talent with service to others, we experience the ecstasy and exultation of our own spirit, which is the ultimate goal of goals.” – Deepak Chopra
• According to Dictionary.com, Purpose (noun) is the reason something is done, created, or exists. When you think of your purpose, most of the time you think of “Why” – why someone is working on something, why a task matters to a job, or why a job matters to someone. We want to know that the outcome is meaningful.

  “It is just built into our DNA,” says Jacinta Jimenez, a psychologist, and the head of coaching at the leadership development platform, BetterUp.com. “As human beings, we are wired to connect, and part of the purpose is serving others or serving the greater good, something outside of us that allows us to feel more connected.”
  

  This need to connect and serve others so you can feel more connected motivates you to fulfil your purpose. Your life purpose is the reason you get up in the morning, the motivating goal of your life.
  

  Your purpose can be the guide you use when making decisions that influence your behaviour, shape your goals, and give you a sense of direction or creates meaning in your life.
  

  For some, the purpose is connected to their career and meaningful, satisfying work. While for others, it comes from their responsibilities to their family and friends. Others continue to turn to spirituality or their religious convictions to find purpose. Some people may find meaning in all facets of their lives.
  

  Everybody has a specific purpose, so what you determine to be your route will be different from someone else's. Your priorities may change over the course of your life, and your experiences may vary, causing them to shift and change.
  

  You can have some questions when you think about your life's purpose. These might include:
  
• 
• • Who am I? 
  • Where do I belong?
    
  • What is my purpose in life?
  • When do I feel fulfilled? 
• The purpose is our reason why. It serves as the impetus for our acts, objectives, and fulfilment. We become content and happier when we have a purpose in life, whether through employment, volunteering, or some other activity.

WHAT IS PURPOSE?

 

• “The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for a newer and richer experience.” – Eleanor Roosevelt
• Have you ever considered your purpose for being on earth or what you are supposed to do? It is the age-old question: “What is my purpose in life?”

  Imagine you are so sure about your purpose that you spring out of bed every morning, excited to start your day. Imagine going to bed each night feeling content and appreciative of the possibilities and knowledge you gained today.
  

  Most people do not suddenly realize they have found their purpose in life. Many of us will spend countless hours searching, dreaming, and wondering about our purpose. Some will never find it. Some people spend their entire lives looking for their calling. Some individuals will put in the effort and take decisive action to identify their talents, passions, and life goals.
  

  Some people spend their entire lives looking for their purpose. We spend a big part of our lives working. In actuality, most people work more than 90,000 hours throughout their lifetime. With all that time working, it makes sense to want to be doing something that fulfils your purpose.
