Summary
Sometimes, life can be so unkind, unfair, and cruel. And when this happens, we usually lose our sense of direction and fall into the downward spiral of despair. That’s why in this episode, Jay Morrison presents to us the significance of having a clear purpose in life.
Knowing your “why” or having a reason fuels your determination and dedication to keep going forward. It’s what gives you light during the darkest days of your life and further shines to others who need it. Simply put, the world needs your purpose too.
In sum, Jay is saying that knowing your “WHY” or having a clear vision of what motivates you, how you’re going to achieve it, and why you’re doing it provides the direction towards a purposeful, successful, and significant life.
