You don't have one fixed purpose. Instead, you have many shifting purposes nested under something bigger like growth or love. The speaker cured a severe snake phobia in under an hour by embracing a challenge, showing what happens when you answer the call and act boldly instead of making excuses.
I think the biggest mistake is thinking you have one purpose. We have lots of purposes. We have different purposes in each day. There might be an overriding purpose to grow, to give, to contribute, to love, whatever, to be an expression of God that you'd be proud of, that God would be proud of you, whatever your belief is. But there's so many purposes and people get caught up in having to create some big purpose. You know what my purpose is? To help. You get somebody who, you know, you thought was your friend who betrays you. You, you know, have a financial issue. There's so many things that come up, but that challenge comes for a purpose. And the purpose is, I believe, the the universe and God calling you to go on the journey, on an adventure, to discover who you really are, to find the deeper parts of yourself so you have something more to share and contribute to people. And so when that call comes, you know, if you are willing to go on the journey, if you don't sit there and just give up or complain or come up with excuses, then you have to step into the unknown. And I stepped into the unknown. I had no net, and I put myself on the line to do things that seemed crazy. I'd get up and challenge psychologists and psychiatrists. 'Give me your worst patient. I'll handle them in less than an hour and produce the result when they've worked on it for 7 years with a snake phobia.' And I pulled it off.
