Why You Should Stop Chasing Your Purpose and Do This Instead

We’re living in an exhilarating time, which I’m referring to as,

“The Great Reinvention.”

It’s a fascinating period, people are connecting with what matters to them, and they’re taking intentional action to make it a reality.

As a Reinvention Architect, I love it. My mission is in exact alignment with the time we’re living in.

Reinvention is empowerment.

However, as with all of life, there are heads and tails, yin and yang, darkness and light.

There’s an idea emerging that’s counter to the empowerment of reinvention:

The crushing pressure to find your purpose and live your purpose.

Which I’ve seen firsthand evolve into the belief that you’re doing life “wrong” if you don’t know your purpose and if you’re not living your purpose.

This false notion that you’re doing life wrong produces emotions such as frustration, lack of self-worth, inadequacy, guilt, shame, and depression.

5 Critical Points:

• Purpose will never produce those emotions.
• Purpose isn’t something you chase.
• Purpose isn’t handed to you on a silver platter.
