have a definite purpose for your life, clarity comes faster, which leads
to more conviction in your direction, which usually leads to faster
decisions. When you make faster decisions, you’ll often be the one
who makes the first decisions and winds up with the best choices. And
when you have the best choices, you have the opportunity for the best
experiences. This is how knowing where you’re going helps lead you
to the best possible outcomes and experiences life has to offer.
Purpose also helps you when things don’t go your way. Life gets
tough at times and there’s no way around that. Aim high enough, live
long enough, and you’ll encounter your share of tough times. That’s
okay. We all experience this. Knowing why you’re doing something
provides the inspiration and motivation to give the extra perspiration
needed to persevere when things go south. Sticking with something
long enough for success to show up is a fundamental requirement for
achieving extra-ordinary results.
Purpose provides the ultimate glue that can help you stick to the
path you’ve set. When what you do matches your purpose, your life
just feels in rhythm, and the path you beat with your feet seems to
match the sound in your head and heart. Live with purpose and don’t
be surprised if you actually hum more and even whistle while you
work.
When you ask yourself, “What’s the ONE Thing I can do in my
life that would mean the most to me and the world, such that by doing
it everything else would be easier or unnecessary?” you’re using the
power of The ONE Thing to bring purpose to your life.
