Purpose is our anchor that keeps us from wavering back and forth. Without a specific purpose, there is nothing to pursue. Instead, purpose points us toward the road to fulfilling our heart’s desire. When our goals are achieved, we feel a sense of fulfillment. That’s an advantage of finding purpose.
Instills Faith That We Can Achieve
Identifying your purpose provides us with a mission
- It gives us a cause to champion
- This helps us recognize our potential, see the possibilities, and believe that we can achieve our heart’s desire
- Having a clear and detailed purpose will then be the starting point to propel us to achieving the goals we want
- Without this, we can easily lose our faith
Provides Focus and a Sense of Control Instead of Chaos and Confusion
Identifying the specific purpose you are pursuing brings clarity to your situation
- Believing in your goals and dreams, having an action plan with explicit instructions and directions to follow gives you control of your efforts
- Having control allows you to steer your life towards the result you desire
Having a Specific Purpose Forces Us To Plan
Planning means evaluating what we have and what we know, to determine how to use them and identify what or who we need to take so our journey can be successful.
- When we plan, we avoid pitfalls, anxiety, and fear; because we are prepared to function regardless of what situations-good or bad-we experience along the way
Gives Us a Clear Vision of What We Are Attempting To Achieve
If we don’t know where we want to go, it’s difficult to map out how we are going to get there.
- Having the ability to see where we are headed and having a definitive task list will help us make positive progress.
