Purpose = Passion + Profession + Vocation + Mission

Do you want to live your life to the fullest? Take a look at this model and find the answers in these concepts.

Definitions

  • Vocation: a summons or strong inclination to a particular state or course of action
  • Profession: a calling requiring specialized knowledge and often long and intensive academic preparation
  • Passion: a strong liking or desire for or devotion to some activity, object, or concept
  • Mission: a pre-established and often self-imposed objective or purpose

 

Your purpose is at the intersection of these concepts:

That which you love

That which you can be paid for

That which you are good at

That which the world needs
