Why Purpose is More Powerful
Many gurus, coaches, and personal development junkies espouse the intention to “discover your passion” and presumably “follow your passion” once you’ve found it.
Following your passion is pretty strait forward. Once you discover it, do it. Got it.
But, there is a vital flaw in this notion of “discovering” your passion; it gives the impression that your passion is hiding somewhere waiting only to be unearthed. It perpetuates the myth that finding one’s passion is like falling in love at first sight. “Aha! There you are! I’ve been waiting to find you my whole life!”
This isn’t at all how passion works.
The reason this misunderstanding is SO IMPORTANT is because many of the people who are determined to discover their passion get frustrated and disappointed when they don’t find it. They feel like they’re trapped in a wild goose chase or a never-ending hunt for a phantom lightbulb moment. Because they are.
They think there must be something wrong with them. They judge themselves for not having that “one thing” that clearly stands out as their ultimate passion. They don’t love anything so much that they’d dedicate their lives to it or that they’re so enamored with that they’re frothing at the mouth.
It becomes even more infuriating for those who also expect this passion to be paired with a distinguished talent. And when they find themselves unable to unearth any latent talent or hidden passions, despite their obsessive digging, they question their entire existence.
The good news is that this conundrum can be overcome because it’s based on a belief system that is totally flawed.
