The True Purpose of Life

The true purpose of life is whatever hobby, lifestyle, business, or career best satisfies the four essential needs of the mind — Adventure, Talent, Passion, and Optimism.

The good news is: you can get started right now with the four versions of those centres you already have — which are what you’re excited by (Adventure), good at (Talent), suited to (Passion), and know well (Optimism). That’s why we designed our Level 1 workshop to focus only on those four characteristics.

And because you already have those characteristics, it makes your new purpose believable and achievable — so you actually get started. From there, living that purpose naturally leads to greater Adventure, Talent, Passion, and Optimism:

• Living what you're excited by naturally leads to more Adventure.

• Doing things you’re good at develops more Talent.

• Expressing yourself in ways that suit you promotes Passion.

• Applying what you know well leads to more Optimism.

Those qualities reinforce each other. The more you live them, the more they grow, and the more real, lasting happiness you create. Because purpose isn’t something you figure out once and then finish. It’s something you live into, and it develops as you do.

So if you can find something to do in life that ticks those four boxes — you've found your perfect purpose. And we have a beautifully simple process that can help you work that out in our Level 1 online workshop, as well as Level 2 and Level 3 to help you live it.

It doesn’t have to be your job

Once you find your true purpose, you live it any way you can, as often as you can. If you can do that as a full-time living, great. But you don’t have to quit your job or blow up your life to live your purpose.

Live your purpose wherever it fits — after hours, on weekends, or whenever you can. Doing that adds meaning, fulfilment, and balance back into your life. It gives you something that’s yours, outside the routine, pressure, and obligation of work life.

Life can’t be all work and no play.

Find and live your true purpose in life, and live your dreams!
