Purpose won't arrive on its own. You have to actively build it, sometimes by making the search itself your goal. Motivation usually shows up after you start working, not before.
I believe that there's these myths about motivation and purpose. So, for example, you're going to be in the jungles of Botswana and meet some poor child and oh, my God, like, this has been my life purpose, and I'm going to carry this for years. And it doesn't work that way. Or the purpose is going to be you're just going to stumble on it, it's going to find you. But it doesn't. And even if you did find it within a week or a month or three months later, it loses that immediacy. So you need to cultivate your own purpose. Even if that purp. Purpose is to find purpose in the first place, you need to go find it. For me, personally, I don't know about you. Motivation doesn't find me. I have to go find it. I don't get motivated until I start writing. I don't get motivated until I start running. I don't get motivated until I start doing something. And then it comes. Too many people. Again. There's this undercurrent in the book, which is, how do you go out and make your business happen, your life happen, your career happen, the revenue happen, because you need to go do it. And purpose is the same way. It's not gonna strike you or overnight success, one out of a thousand people strikes you in some sort of lasting, you know, purpose. But I. That's not how it works for me.
