Does your “life purpose’ and career match up?
To break it down the meaning of life purpose may help-
One of the dictionary definitions of “purpose” is:
“The reason for which something exists or is done, made, used, etc.” Therefore, one could surmise that a definition of “life purpose” might be: “The reason which I exist or am made, or for which I am to be used.” Do you care about the following…
- Care about and value helping others
- Feel that serving others is part of your life purpose
- Believe that living your life purpose is very important to you
- Believe that living your life purpose has become so important to you that you’re no longer willing to not live your life purpose in every area of your life, including, and especially, your career.
Instead of approaching your career with the question “What do I get to have?”…we want to suggest approaching your career with the question “What would I like to create?” This is a fairly radical paradigm shift because it’s something most people don’t feel that they are “allowed” to do. They require outside “permission.”
