How to Discover Your Life Purpose by Answering Five Very Simple Questions
Piece together your five answers and you’ve got your life purpose in one sentence.
A few months back, I was sitting alone at the kitchen table eating my lunch. I was looking out the window onto my beautiful garden and watching the birds landing gracefully onto the tree branches.
It was a gorgeous, sunny day and the sky was a deep blue colour with not a cloud in sight. Everything was calm and I continued eating my lunch slowly, contemplating the world.
Then my thoughts turned to me. It briefly crossed my mind that I was wasting this lovely day by sitting inside and not making the most of the weather, but then I thought; maybe I’m not making the most of life.
I thought about my life up to now; I’m still young, I’m free to make my own decisions and decide which path my life goes down. The trouble was, I didn’t know which direction I wanted to take my life.
I didn’t know what I wanted to do or who I wanted to become. In simpler words, I didn’t know my life purpose.
What was the reason for me being on the planet? What did I want that reason to be?
