What if you pass the age of 25,35,45… and still haven’t found the thing you want to do for the rest of your life?
Maybe, and not necessarily, but maybe your career isn’t your purpose— and if you understand this, you’ll free yourself after finishing this blog.
I’ve ALWAYS wanted my one and only since I can remember.
A dream role that I commit myself to for all of life, that inspires me, fills me with love, joy, human spirit, oh— and above everything, pulls me out of the banality of existence.
Intuitively, I was saving myself for this dream role. I’d chase opportunities and as soon as they failed to fill my internal purpose bucket (meaning I no longer loved them the same) I’d leave then repeat the search cycle.
Always starting, never following through.
But I realized as time went on, it wasn’t the dream job I was looking for.
I just didn’t want to feel empty.
I wanted to be connected to something more important than myself— and that thing is purpose.
You decide your purpose, and it can come from anything you choose, not just your career.
Most people who romanticize career don’t real give a shit about their jobs, it’s the purpose they get from the role itself that they find fulfilling.
Start with your purpose if you want to end the search and find your meaning.
