Adam Leipzig in his Ted Talk, “How to know your life purpose in 5 minutes!” suggests that if we know the answers to 5 simple questions, we can determine our life’s purpose!
- Who you are.
- What you do.
- Who you do it for.
- What those people wanted or needed.
- What do they get out of it and how do they change as a result.
Grab a piece of paper and let’s try it together!
- Who you are? Tracy Steen.
- What you do? Teach people how to live healthier lives.
- Who you do it for? My clients.
- What do those people want or need? Hope that change is possible.
- What do they get out of it and how do they change as a result? They get hope and they increase their health and wellness.
This formula is powerful because only 2 are about yourself. The bottom 3 are about other people. Therefore, it forces us to be outward facing! Happier and more successful people make it a point of helping others have a better life.
So when people ask you “What do you do?”, say the last thing on the list! So Tracy, what do you do? “I give people hope by helping them increase their health and wellness.”
Yep, I’m digging that life purpose. What’s your’s? I’d love to hear in the comments below! The full video on finding your life purpose is only 10 minutes. Take a moment and figure out your purpose today!
