Making money can never be your purpose

because your existence has a deeper meaning.

Dear Authentic Introvert,

We often mix up rewards and purpose.

Rewards comprise of that six or seven figure business you want to establish, that big mansion you intend to buy or that expensive car you want to drive.

But purpose is something much deeper.

When you confuse these rewards with your purpose and treat these like a reason for your living, you find yourself lost every now and then.

This happens because even after getting a reward, you don’t feel that fulfilment you were hoping for.

On the contrary, the process seems more calming and fulfilling than the achievement.

Purpose is the fundamental motivation that drives you. It has little to do with short-term goals or temporary desires.

It’s the underlying reason that gives meaning to your actions and choices.

Rewards, on the other hand, are the positive outcomes or benefits that you receive from doing something.

They can be money, praise, recognition, or personal satisfaction. Think of them as incentives to motivate you to take action or continue doing something.

While rewards can be encouraging, purpose is deeper and more enduring. It’s connected to your core values and beliefs about what is important in life.

It’s about what you find fulfilling and meaningful on a personal level, beyond any external rewards you might receive.

Discovering your life’s purpose can be a journey.

It involves self-reflection and understanding what truly matters to you.

It’s the answer to questions such as:

  • What am I passionate about?

  • What do I find deeply satisfying?

  • What impact do I want to have on the world or people around me?

When you live with purpose, your actions and decisions align with your personal values and contribute to your overall sense of fulfillment.

You’re not just chasing after rewards; you’re living in a way that feels right and meaningful to you.

Have you found your purpose yet?
