Purpose is a deep current of understanding and self-knowledge which directs an individuals steps towards their manifested destiny. It is the directive in which  one finds his or her being and rationale for existence. It is essentially a mission or calling. All people have  a purpose. It is up to each individual to find it. Those whom do are the most successful.

Discover who you are

Our talents, gifts, skills, and character all come together to power our individual missions. We each are given the tools we need to succeed in our personal missions we simply must discover them and hone them. Those who seek to function in positions that do not fit their skill sets, gifts, or talents, may not fail, but may never succeed at the level to which they desire.

Discover your mission (write it down)

Every hero has their own theme music. Every achieve should have their own mission statement. Craft your mission statement. Write down your purpose for being and moving. Frame it. Let it serve as a reminder of why, you do the things you do. Let it motivate you and stir you to keep on keeping on even in the bleakest of hours.

A Deeper Purpose

All of our individual missions tie into a deeper communal mission. Growth, success, and achievement as whole can only be realized when we find our individual purpose and then give back.
