Individuals have personal goals as well as societal goals. We need to know what our goal is in order to find how to get to our life destination. Therefore we must try our very best to know our life’s meaning and purpose. When we know this purpose then we can take active steps towards it. Our life purpose is not a single goal, it is not multiple goals either, it is not even a goal. Our life purpose is what resonates with us, it is what we feel inside out when doing something, it is a state of being proud of ones doing and believing in one’s actions.
As long as we know our life purpose and meaning, we will be able to face issues and difficulties in life in a more methodical and organised way. This doesn’t mean we definitely succeed, but it means that we will be able to understand our thoughts, feelings and actions in a more regulated fashion. Therefore we can experience calmness while taking steps towards our life purpose, and gaining tranquillity and peace.
This self awareness and awareness of others is what helps us be one with our passion. Awareness and personal development is an ongoing process that helps us in our journey of self discovery and purposeful living. They are tools used to help us know how to make sense of our life’s purpose and meaning.
Therefore to have a fulfilling life, we should focus inward and do our best to understand our inner feelings, thoughts and our outer decisions and actions. We also should channel our life towards our purpose. We should make our purpose communal, because we are part of our community and purpose has meaning when shared with others.
