Personal purpose

Section 3 : Refine your personal statement

Now it will be time to reflect on the following questions to further refine your personal purpose:

• What did you learn about yourself when you were creating your purpose statement?
• What is important to you?
• What have you accomplished personally or professionally that aligns with your personal purpose?
• Who benefits or is changed by your personal purpose?

Keep in mind that your answer to the last question about who benefits or is changed by your personal purpose will give the most meaning to all that you will accomplish in the future.  After refining your written personal purpose, list 5 activities or tasks that will help you achieve your personal purpose. Write these down and think about what prevents you from achieving your personal purpose.
