Power of purpose

Give your attention not only to what you do and how you do it. Seek also to understand and to be clear about why.

There is great power in purpose. Purpose energizes your actions and sustains your efforts.

Purpose provides a specific direction in which to apply your time, skills, knowledge, and passion. Purpose enables you to create meaningful value and to live a fulfilling life.

At any point during the day, your life is either lining up with a purpose you care deeply about, or it is not. By asking why, and by persisting until you have an answer, you direct yourself toward true richness.

Purpose is not always easy to understand or to follow. Yet a purposeful life is ultimately preferable to the alternative.

Why do you love what you love, and do what you do, and desire what you desire? Get clear about purpose, and spread the power of that purpose throughout your world.

— Ralph Marston
