Personal Finance for Long-Term Investors - The Best Interest

What Do You Mean By “little p purpose”?! | Jordan Grumet - E98


Listen Later

Jordan Grumet, AKA Doc G, returns to the podcast to share the difference between “Big P Purpose” and “little p purpose” and why you should pursue the seemingly less significant latter. Bringing together his experience in hospice care and finance, Jordan shines light on how we can create our purpose through personal growth and the pursuit of passions, rather than grandiose goals. Jordan calls these activities that bring joy "purpose anchors," which can be discovered through reflection and exploration. By engaging in these meaningful pursuits, individuals create positive ripple effects, fostering generational growth and leaving lasting legacies. This reframing of purpose as a process-driven journey encourages embracing life's uncertainties and finding fulfillment in the present.

If you’re hard at work, saving and investing, and still feeling uncertain about what it’s all for, this is the perfect episode for you. Jordan brings actionable advice to big questions.

Key Takeaways: • What’s all this financial planning really for? • The difference between “big P Purpose” and “little p purpose”, and why you should pursue the latter. • How thinking about your regrets, the joys of childhood, and work can help you develop a purpose. • Engaging in your purpose each day, no matter how insignificant it may seem at the time, will change the world. • How “money scripts” pass on from generation to generation. • Don’t worry about legacy, just do things that light you up.
