So, let's THINK about your PURPOSE!

What is Purpose?

So that we are all on the same page, let's see what my trusty American Heritage Dictionary has to say:

PURPOSE...

• Noun: The object toward which one strives or for which something exists; an aim or a goal.
• Noun: The proper activity of a person or thing; job, function, role.
• Noun: What one intends to do or achieve; point, end, plan, view, meaning, design, goal, objective, target, intention, aim, intent.
• Verb: To have in mind as a goal or purpose. Mean, plan, design, propose, intend, aim, project, contemplate.
• Idioms: On purpose. Intentionally; deliberately. To good purpose. With good results.

Please take a moment to think about what purpose means. Now ask yourself these questions:

WHY do I EXIST?

What is my PROPER activity, function and role in life?

WHAT do I intend to ACHIEVE with the only life I have to live?

Interesting questions, aren't they?

Do you have the answer?

What's YOUR Purpose?

There is something I want you to think about all week long. It will put our discussion in proper context.

Pastor Joel Osteen and Oprah Winfrey both promise...

You Can Live Your Best Life Now...

The question becomes, HOW? Doctor Robert H. Schuller, the world's greatest "Possibilitarian", advises...

Don't Throw Away Tomorrow...

The question becomes, HOW? Stephen Covey, in 7 Habits of Highly Effective People tells you to...

Put First Things First...

The question becomes, HOW? Pastor Rick Warren, in The Purpose Driven Life asks you to discover...

What On Earth Am I Here For?

Once you have read these books... once you have aroused the flames of inspiration, devotion and desire... we have an even BIGGER question:

Just How In The World Am I
Going To Make This Happen?!

Once you know WHO you are... WHY you are here... and WHAT you are supposed to do with the only life you have to live... you CAN live your best life NOW.

The question becomes, "HOW?" How am I going to live my purpose? How am I going to live what's most important to me? How am I going to live each day as a testament to what I am on Earth to accomplish?

The ANSWER is simple.

Perform better TODAY than you did YESTERDAY.

The way to LIVE your BEST life now is to transform yourMission into crystal-clear Goals... turn your goals into rock-solid Plans... turn your plans into step-by-step Actions

The way to remain focused on what's MOST important... the way to live your VALUES... the way to make certain that you never throw away a SINGLE tomorrow is this:

Know Your Purpose In Life.
Give It Everything You've Got

Only YOU can say WHO you are. You must DISCOVER it.

Only YOU can say WHY you are here. You must BELIEVE it.

Only YOU can say WHAT you are going to DO with the ONLY life you have to live.

Just DO it!

The Bottom Line...

Living your purpose, on purpose, is not just a catch-phrase.

It is a mandate.
