How we understand purpose in life affects what we do to obtain it. How can we gain a more robust understanding of what purpose is?
Todd Kashdan is a professor of psychology at George Mason University where he studies purpose and other facets of well-being. He's currently working on an article that reconceptualizes the concept of purpose. In this episode, he shares how we can think about purpose more accurately. 
In this episode, you'll learn about:

• Purpose as articulated understanding vs. behavior
• Recognizing other people's purpose
• How we spend our time, money, and energy point to what's purposeful to us
• Does acting purposefully require making other people's lives better?
• Excavating our strengths
