Today’s Question: How do I find my Purpose in Life?

Finding one's purpose in life is a personal journey that can take time and introspection. Here are some suggestions that may help you on the way

• It would help if you reflected on what truly matters to you, what ignites your passion, and what you feel drawn toward. If you feel like no such thing exists in your life yet, then the simple answer is that you haven’t tried enough things. Go out there and try things, you never imagined yourself doing.

• Find your unfair advantage and start working on it. Everyone in life has some or the other unfair advantage. You need to find out yours. You could be good with numbers, or music, or with your words. Start writing down the things you are good at. Doesn’t matter if your list is big or small. All you need is that one thing to get you started.

• You can also try looking back at your past and examining the pivotal moments, challenges, and successes in your life. Patterns or themes may emerge, and then all you have to do is connect the dots, pointing you toward your deeper purpose.

• Lastly don’t stress out too much if you don’t have a purpose in life. As long as you enjoy life, make it your purpose. I really recommend you to watch the movie “Soul”. It will give you a new perspective on the matter.
