Be HUMAN, find your PURPOSE. Otherwise, you are just an animal.

Why do you do what you do?
Why do you go to the job you go to every day?
Why do you have the friends that you have?
Why do you eat the things you eat?
Why do you do anything that you do?
MOST IMPORTANTLY, WHY DON'T we as a society teach our youth to question everything like I started doing above?
Instead, we teach everyone to fall in line. Us humans, born to be unique... (like seriously we all have unique finger prints, how f***ing cool is that?!?!?)
yet, instead of leaning into this uniqueness, letting it shine wherever we step foot, we shelter our true selves out of fear of criticism by others. Then we teach the next generations to live by the same fears.
The heck with that I say.
Money is nothing but paper without the purpose it can be used for.
Materials are nothing without the larger purpose they serve.
Human life is meaningless without defining our purpose.
Aka we are just animals if we don't define our purpose for existing on this earth.
I beg you to think about YOUR PURPOSE this weekend. The world needs more people speaking about, acting on, and celebrating the very purpose that brings them to life...while they are still ALIVE to do it.
Questions I have asked myself to help me define my purpose...
- If I was alone on an island, money didn't exist, fame didn't exist, what would I do with my life? I need to do more of that!!!
- If today was my last day on earth, would I be proud of my life up to that point? If not, I need to CHANGE my daily actions.
- What keeps me up at night thinking? (In a good way, not the worries, but the excitement chatter inside my brain).
Need more help defining it, while also hearing what CJ's purpose is?!?
Check out today's episode of The Purpose Project Podcast where I was interviewed by Emily Gigliotti about MY purpose, and how I found it.
