A person’s purpose changes over time, like a purpose of a child is to survive long enough to reproduce, then young adults will reproduce and let the children grow. But at the end of the day, everyone’s purpose is to survive and reproduce. That is what all organisms are designed for. We are no different
Absolutely. Or at least, it should. Over time we grow and take more responsibility or less and our focus needs to change to adapt. Now that my kids are grown I am able to focus more on growing spiritually and personally. Before my focus was my children and I didn’t give time to bettering myself.
I believe my purpose evolves. The fact that I get to know more people that push me towards attaining my set long term goals. Also I’m able to control my anger and impulsiveness which has been an issue to me over the years. I’m glad I’m helpful to people I meet and discuss with. I’m also grateful for my life partner plus the current challenges which are coaching me patience and calmness in all life situations!
Yes, I do; I feel like as people we grow and within that growth, we change in many different ways, and our purpose also expands or gets smaller base on who and where we are in our journey.
I think it absolutely can. Purpose is something internal - it’s based on our individual assessment of who we are and what we can do. That assessment is an ongoing, lifelong task - we need to regularly check in on these points with ourselves as our lives evolve and change. Sometimes, external circumstances force a change in purpose, and that’s okay too. Sometimes, our purpose itself doesn’t change, but the avenue we pursue in fulfilling it changes. The important thing to note is that, as with everything else in life, we have to find the right balance between being steadfast and flexible in conceptualizing and fulfilling our purpose. We need to be resilient in our mindset so we always have a purpose and a way forward.
Yes it can do. Trying out new thing’s every day or every week you may find new passions and goals to strive for. But always remember where it all started.
I think my purpose should evolve and I can also change things that I’m not happy with in life but my life purpose should continue to evolve on day at at time to become more confident, and more comfortable with myself and in my own skin, finding my purpose will help me achieve many goals I set for myself and get them down properly because I gave myself time to reflect on all the things I wanna change in life and excel in things that are in the process already.
I think it’s a union of both. As our purpose evolves, our life experiences can adding new things, so the purpose can change too, even if it’s just a little bit.
I really think so. It is evolving just like our mind, body and soul.:) I have heard someone said that if you have the same thoughts and beliefs like you had when you were 20 years old when you are 50 now, you threw out 30 years of your life.
Sometimes yhe circumstances may change the purpose but at the end the main purpose or goal is the same but the ways of making it are different
