The more and more I do these “Finding your life’s purpose” or “discovery your passion in 6 easy steps” type exercises… the more and more I get focused on one conclusion: I’m tired of doing them! :)
But seriously, they really are great ways to get your mind churning and keeping the squeaky, “I want to come out and play!” voice a wee bit happier. More often than not, I gain at least one insight from each one of these things. That’s not too shabby! Any day with another insight is a WINNING day in my book!
The only real problem I’ve run across with this line of thinking is… well, the majority of the tests run along the same line of thinking! There’s no real variation – no real “bump over the road’s shoulder and ride in the field to find the next path” approaches. Sometimes, that’s all it takes to get the brainy-juices flowing and burst out one of those most cherished moments… the elusive A-HA!
So let’s do something a bit different today. Let’s try and discover a bit more about our life’s purpose by tearing to complete shreds that path of life we most certainly DO NOT want.
