Step #1: Brainstorm your purpose

Purpose = talents + passions + skills/expertise + values

Identify at least 4 attributes for each area of your personal and professional talents, passions, skills/expertise, and values—even those you may take for granted, like being a good friend or having the ability to organize well. This can be a bulleted list.

Based on everything you outlined above, what are some related goals you want to achieve in your life? Goals are specific, measurable, achievable, and results-focused.

As you look at the people who inspired you, the ideal self you've defined, the legacy you want to leave, the purpose you have for the core areas of your life, and the aptitudes you possess, what are the outcomes you want to achieve for your life?
