Friday Focus: Purpose

Purpose is what drives us, and sometimes finding it requires intentional action. If you’re feeling stuck or uncertain about your career direction, here are actionable steps to help you connect with your purpose today:

𝟭. 𝗥𝗲𝗳𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗼𝗻 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: Write down the things that bring you joy or make you feel fulfilled. What activities or projects have made you lose track of time?

𝟮. 𝗜𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗳𝘆 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵𝘀: Take stock of your natural talents and skills. Consider how they can align with your career goals or be used in new ways.

𝟯. 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗦𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹: Explore your interests through classes, networking events, or volunteering. These experiences can provide insight into what truly excites you.

𝟰. 𝗦𝗲𝘁 𝗖𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗚𝗼𝗮𝗹𝘀: Break your vision into manageable steps. Having a plan makes the journey toward purpose less overwhelming.

𝟱. 𝗦𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁: Talk to mentors, friends, or career coaches who can guide and encourage you along the way.

Finding purpose is a journey, not a destination. Each step you take-no matter how small-brings you closer to discovering what sets your soul on fire.
