Have you ever felt frustrated by that there are so many things that seem like they could be your purpose? Do you find yourself struggling with choosing where to focus your energy because it is so difficult to choose between these different purposes? The aim of this episode is to give you a perspective on purpose that can help you solve this problem.

Instead of viewing purpose as the work that you do in the world, which indeed could take a thousand different forms, I offer you a way of viewing purpose as something deeper and more fundamental, as something that pervades all of your life, regardless of your vocation. I offer you the purpose octagon.

The purpose octagon is a way of dividing purpose into eight facets: vision, values, powers, essence, give-away, task, message and delivery system. In this episode I clarify why getting to know the different facets of your purpose octagon is more fundamental than finding your vocation. I also explain how doing that makes it easier for you to identify a vocation that truly fits for you.

If this sounds interesting, I encourage you to listen. And if you like the episode, please share it with your friends!
