During this series David has mentioned working out your purpose by taking time to figure out a plan for yourself. In this episode he addresses how to make a start at getting that plan together.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • What others think about you isn’t what defines you. What defines you is your purpose.
  • Be confident to be your own person. Don’t live your life to meet the expectations of others – live your life to for others.
  • Identify your end game, almost like your exit strategy.
  • Ask yourself 5 key questions:
  • 1 - If you could change the direction of your life right now what would that change be?
  • 2 - What are 3-7 unique things about you?
  • 3 – If there was one thing you could do and get paid for it what would it be?
  • 4 – if there was no fear of failure what would you do?
  • 5 – If you had no fear of being judged what would you do?

  • Write your own obituary – what would you want this to say?

  • Write about the change that you made in the world, family, your circle of friends, what you achieved at work, your legacy, how you were perceived, what energy and gift did you bring?

  • Then you can work out what your ‘it’ is and how to make it happen

BEST MOMENTS

‘Everyone is unique – these questions are designed to open your mind’

‘Whatever you think about what you want for your life is your truth.’

‘If you’re standing at the end of your life and looking back at what you have done, then this is complete.’

‘What was your gift to the world?’

People With Purpose

People with purpose make a difference. Imagine a world where more people can just get their purpose out of them, into a plan and then actually make it happen. What a world that would be - People everywhere finding meaning and harnessing that to bring inspiration and energy to each and every day, changing lives for the better. But no-one ever achieved anything on their own - we all have something unique to bring and that means we all have to play our part - if we want to go far we have to go together and lead or serve towards a vision of the world we want to see. Everyone has a story to tell and this show is where these stories come to life.
