These to me are the saddest people. Sometimes our purpose is buried under a pile of doubts, fears, a history of failures and rejections and we need to do a little work to uncover it. When you realise what your purpose is and live it, you will experience happiness that is more powerful than the temporary buzz that you get with the achievement of a goal. Purpose does not have to be spiritual, or specific. My individual purpose is very specific, to live and teach the principles of true wealth.
Some people prefer a broader purpose such as helping others or the environment.
We don t all have to be Mother Theresa. Each of us can do good in our everyday lives. It is worth taking the time to get to know your purpose because following this purpose is your source of true happiness. Often, you will come across your purpose simply by being the person that you want to be. The personality traits that most typify you, the things that you love to do, the gifts that you have, even the material possessions that you desire are very closely linked to your purpose.
