What is your purpose?

Why does purpose matter?

On his blog Steve Pavlina put together some interesting points on finding your life purpose. As he points out: Becoming more purposeful means becoming more intentional, aware, and motivated in your actions. Here are the four points he makes:

  1. It aligns better with your inner fire… your passion.
  2. Purpose provides a better context to become and remain motivated than acting on a need, i.e. “having to do something”
  3. Self-discipline becomes easier. When your passion and talents are aligned with your goals (which is what happens within the context of purpose), everything down the line gets easier.
  4. When you work within the context of purpose, you’ll be able to use this context to more powerfully satisfy some of your needs automatically.
