What is Your Purpose?

Author Robert Byrne said "the purpose of life is a life of purpose". Have a purpose. Find a passion. Spend some quiet time and think about what gives you the most joy. What is not work to you? What would you do with your life if you were assured success? Maybe your purpose needs to include volunteering for those less fortunate. Your purpose might be to mentor others or to raise children who have faith, a work ethic and are good citizens.

We are rarely taught to serve in life - we are taught to work. Give of your time, energy and resources as an act of love - love sparks the fire of passion. Doing what you love has rewards that money cannot buy. Do what you do because you love to do it. Thinking of your work as service gives you a purpose.

Go out and purposely have a great day and weekend.

Joyfully,
Chris
