Re: Finding purpose

To really answer your question, it really starts with interests, the more, the better. Interests lead to passion, then eventually purpose.  For example, I was always interested in art and multimedia. Then I decided to be in graphics and media production. It worked well for me. I didn't find it as work, but fun.

Re: Finding purpose

  What would help is if the purpose is deep and meaningful, but of course it is different for everyone. Here is a little short history. I always thought money will equal happiness, but once I was able to reached my goals financially, I still yearn for something meaningful. A big house and nice car isn't it all crack to be. You will still feel an emptiness. I felt very lonely in the house, so I decided to move to a small apartment in a populated city. I got involved in my community and made some close connections. Along the way I found some new friends. From the experience, I would say it is the relationship we create like friendship, trust, learning, and meaning. Since I am financially successful, I will try to help those who are less fortunate. Even actions like this helps my well-being.

Re: Finding purpose

I guess I have to figure out what my interests are.

Re: Finding purpose

  Yeah, it does take awhile to find your interest and purpose if you don't know already. If you already know, it will save a lot of time and struggle. I was less fortunate to find it later in my life, though. I can say, as long as you are learning, then it will eventually leads to purpose . Right now, I have spiritual friends to fall back on. I am learning something everyday. Have a social circle, it will boost your understanding, meaning in life, and also meditation. For my case, it is connection.
