What is Purpose

What is Purpose

Here’s a question for you: have you ever spent time thinking about your own meaning of life? 

Thinking about what you’re here for? What you’re supposed to create? 

It seems as though many people only start thinking about their life's purpose when change happens, for example when their children grow up and leave home, when they lose their job, when they split up from a long-term partner or when they lose a parent. 

Up until this change, they’ve seen life as doing what they are told and living out a pre-defined existence. Life is all about studying, working, starting a family, having kids, perhaps going for a holiday once in a while, and then dying from sickness or old age at some point. Eat, sleep, wake up, do stuff, rinse and repeat! 

Until the life-change, they may have thought that the idea of having a purpose is daft, even a bit “woo”. It may even be that they don’t know how to “get” a purpose – it’s not as if you can get one on Amazon, is it? 

As a result of this purpose-less existence, a lot of us seem more interested in following the latest trends, following what the media says, shopping, and following the life path as defined by society and government.  

Questioning things is just being silly.  

What’s the point about thinking deeper or creating a meaningful life?  

Life has no intrinsic meaning or value.  

Why find a purpose if something has no meaning? 

But what if I were to tell you that you do have a specific purpose in life? One that’s different from what you have been taught? One that’s greater than anything you have ever imagined? 

What if the meaning of your life is far greater than anything you’ve been told about yourself and the world, but you just can’t see it yet because you have been repressing your true and highest self?  

Suddenly, life as you know it will be different. Suddenly, you discover a whole new zest for life that you never knew before. Suddenly, you wake up each day with a new-found energy and eagerness to find out what’s next, and what you’re about to do, more so than you have ever done before. 

Having a strong sense of purpose is a part of living a fulfilled and happy life and it’s my mission to support you in living your best life ever. 

Let’s have a coffee. We can make it virtual or we could live dangerously and meet in person if you prefer, either way, let’s get the ball rolling on this important step: https://CarolineBublik.as.me/Virtualcoffee
