143: Stop Trying To Find Your Purpose

143: Stop Trying To Find Your Purpose

Snippet From Chapter 20 of my Book: Echoes From The Past!

"I tried to find my purpose for far too long. I read every book, watched every YouTube lecture and demanded that each of my therapists and counsellors show me the way to liberation and fulfilment. The thing is, “your purpose” doesn’t exist. It won’t every exist. “Your purpose” is a marketing ploy designed to keep you attached to an idea that will always keep you searching, unfulfilled and lost. Your purpose isn’t your purpose. Your purpose is purely and simply what you’re interested in right now and who you want to be—which is another of saying “what you want to be doing”—in six months’ time.

Chase the “you” in six months. Don’t worry about five or ten years. Our brains aren’t equipped to conceptualise such illusory spans across time and space; but the “you” in six months is practical and relatively tangible. The cool thing about the “you” in six months is that you really could become that person. They’re not that far away. Chase them down! Maybe they’re only six months ahead of you in their savings; in their training, writing or relationship status. Beat them!"
