20 Quotes on Purpose

20 Quotes on Purpose

On Tuesday I published a post on "What is the Power of Purpose?"  in advance of an important gathering for over 100 women and men who have a shared purpose to support girls and women.  In doing research for this event I of course searched for great quotes on purpose, enjoy!
