Summary

Setting goals is an important part of life.

We set goals to achieve things in both our professional and personal lives. But does achieving those goals really fulfill you if they’re not part of your bigger purpose? Jeff Patterson, author of The Big Thing Effect: How to Transform Your Life Forever, explains that finding your true purpose is so much more than just setting goals. You need to ask yourself the right questions in order to find the thing that makes you come alive– then you need to do it.
