Purpose isn't a destination you find once. It's making small adjustments that keep you on track, marked by flow where time dissolves and you stop questioning why you're doing what you do. But time and randomness constantly pull you off course, so you have to stay aware.
A lot of the time, this pursuit of purpose is just really about making those little course corrections that get you more fully on the path. And people often ask me, like, how do I know when I found my purpose? And it's— you'll know because you will be in flow. Time will expand and go fast all at the same time. You will wake up in the morning and never question what you're supposed to be doing with your day. And you will never be knocked off because you're just so convicted about what you're doing until you aren't, because time and randomness have this wonderful way. Also, as much as purpose wants to win, time and randomness are undefeated. And so time passes and things happen that are unexpected, and they may be bright shiny objects that are distractions from our purpose, or they might be obstacles that impede our progress. And so you have to be aware
