This month’s Do What You Love! newsletter featured an article sharing 15 lessons I’ve learned in MAP Inc.’s 15 years in business. I’ll be sharing many of them via this blog over the next couple of weeks as well.
But amid all those lessons, one concept underlies and overarches everything? The power of purpose. I have worked with thousands of people and I have seen how people with a sense of purpose tend to:
- Focus their energy on doing good in their families, organizations, community, and the world.
- Connect their roles and actions to the “bigger picture.”
- Set meaningful goals that stretch them and contribute to the greater good.
- Lead by positive example, engagement, presence, and compassion rather than feeling the need to harm, manipulate, or cause fear.
- Feel stronger, more aligned, and honoring their core values.
I am heartily committed to helping more and more people uncover their purpose and live, work, and lead in meaningful ways as a result. If this speaks to you or a group in which you’re involved, let’s talk. I’ve got some hefty goals and this year will be a game-changer.
