Finding your purpose comes from following what truly brings you fulfillment. I use the term fulfillment intentionally instead of success because success is often linked to social status, wealth, and power. While we might achieve “success” for a while, it can be exhausting and overwhelming if we are trying to be someone we are not meant to be.
Identifying the paths that lead to a life filled with purpose and personal fulfillment is not difficult. Simply follow your bliss, your curiosity, and whatever calls to you, and continue along that path. You will inevitably encounter forks in the road, but if you stay true to your curiosity, you will know which direction to take next. These forks challenge us to remain authentic and honest about what truly feels right for us. Even if we take a wrong turn, no experiences are wasted; every moment provides valuable information.
You will encounter some subjects that you study briefly, while others will become your main focus. However, if you pursue what excites you and follow your interests and passions, you’ll be living your purpose. In doing so, you’ll gather the knowledge you need to continue growing.
Purpose is discovered in your experiences of the moment, through both expression and action. It is not limited to a single definition or end-goal, such as launching a product. Instead, your sense of purpose evolves throughout your life as you grow in self-awareness.
Purpose can be expressed through specific vocations, but a vocation serves as the context for expressing one’s purpose. A vocation itself is not synonymous with your purpose, although some vocations may align closely with it.
Consider your purpose as a continual journey driven by your excitement and curiosity—always accompanied by following your heart. It is not something that can be easily confined or defined by symbols like a business suit, scrubs, a gavel, a hard hat, or an advanced degree. The essence of purpose lies in discovering and maintaining a connection to all the elements that foster the ongoing expansion of your consciousness and joy. This journey is infinite and without end.
