As I drove home from a fantastic waterpolo tournament this weekend I was thinking about how lucky I am to have found something that I’m so excited about! But was also thinking about being in the office Monday and all of you, and the conversations we’ll have – about all the good work you are doing to move towards better health. It is such a reminder that I have the best ‘job’ ever because it rarely feels like a job at all.
Living a life with purpose is like having a compass that guides you through this crazy, beautiful life. It’s about finding what sets your soul on fire, whether that’s helping others, creating art, or chasing your wildest dreams. Maybe it’s as simple as being there for your friends when they need a shoulder to lean on or volunteering at your local animal shelter. Whatever it is, having that sense of purpose gives you a reason to jump out of bed in the morning, excited to tackle whatever comes your way.
So make sure you’re not just going through life doing things you dislike, find something that brings you joy and go after it!!
