Find Your Purpose In Under 10 Minutes
What is our purpose and why is it important?
Our ‘purpose’, sometimes referred to as our ‘mission’ or ‘why’ represents our overarching objective in life. It is bigger than ourselves and like the North Star, it provides focus in times of distraction and inspiration during times of challenge.
It’s the unrelenting driving force that drags our tired arses out of bed when we least feel like it and a constant reminder as to why all the effort is worth it.
Our purpose does not require MOTIVATION, it provides INSPIRATION. One is an energy drain, the other an energy source!
If you have ever felt guilty for a long period of time for not being more motivated by what you’re doing, you are not living your purpose.
If you feel continually drained at the end of a work day or week, you are not fulfilling your ‘why’.
If what you’re doing doesn’t feel worth it, then you are not being driven by a mission.
Many entrepreneurs run businesses for the sole purpose of making money or creating a lifestyle. They start one idea, get disillusioned when the going gets tough and move on to the next one in the hope it will be easier.
This is not the Untamed Way!
We want to be inspired and purposeful in everything we do; to live a 9/10 life, not a life of medioc- rity. We want clarity over who we are and what will inspire us. To know with absolute certainty that everyday we are working towards something greater than ourselves.
If we are to live a purposeful and happy life, identifying and then fulfilling our WHY is essential. The following exercise is designed to help you get closer to doing just that.
Seven Levels Deep
This is a simple, yet highly effective set of questions, designed to get us out of our heads and into our hearts to help figure out why something is important to us.
Many of you will have already asked this. Rarely, however, do we dig deeper than the first answer that pops into our heads. Let’s change that. Let’s go deeper than you have ever gone before and challenge your own thinking.
A tip: the first line of this exercise asks you for your mission. If you have no clue, just do the best you can.
NOTE: Not everyone finds this process simple. Some people’s purpose lies just below the surface, for most however it’s a few layers down. Just be patient, be honest and be brave! Own what you uncover.
