Purpose

Purpose

Purpose is a long-term goal or mission that provides direction and reason for your life.

Details

Purpose is a long-term goal or sense of mission that gives direction and meaning to life. It is closely related to meaning, but is a more active and future-oriented concept.

Research shows that people with a sense of life purpose are healthier, live longer, and have better mental health. Purpose doesn't have to be grand or lofty. Engaging in meaningful activities that align with your strengths and values is where purpose begins.

Life purpose can change over time, and the process of exploring it is itself valuable. Mindy is here to help you reflect on what gives your life direction.
