What is my purpose?

What am I doing here?

Now there is a science underneath of it.

So for purpose to be true, purpose needs to have three factors.

The first is that it has to matter to you.

Nobody can give you purpose.

It's something that is uniquely special to you.

So that's purpose, the first part.

The second part is that it's bigger than you.

It's something that you can't solve on your own.

It's something that extends beyond your capabilities alone.

So it's big, it matters.

And the third leg is that there's a future orientation, meaning that you can't solve it today.

It's something that takes time, time under tension even.

So those are the three.

And if that feels too big, like, oh my God, like,

I've been thinking about that question my whole life and I'm not going to do that.

I don't know where to start.

You can start by thin slicing this practice and you would thin slice it by saying, well, what is my purpose today?

And you wake up in the morning and you just say, what is my purpose today?
