We must set out to discover what we are called to do and what we are made for, and then after we discover it, we should set out to do it with all of the strength and all of the power that we have in our system. When you discover your lifes worth, set out to do it so well that the living, the dead, or the unborn couldnt do it better. And no matter what it is, never consider it insignificant because if it is for the upbuilding of humanity it has cosmic significance. And so if it falls your lot to be a street sweeper, sweep streets like Rafael painted pictures. Sweep streets like Michelangelo carved marble. Sweep streets like Beethoven composed music. Sweep streets like Shakespeare wrote poetry. Sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will have to pause and say, Here lived a great street sweeper who swept his job well.
DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING JR.

What should I do with my life?
How do I discover my true calling?
What should I do next?
What is my purpose?
Lifes Big Questions, such as these, often rattle around the human brain. Everyone asks them. When you do, it means youre alive and connecting the dots between your present and your future. And, if youre anything like me, wrestling with these matters doesnt necessarily go away by settling into a good job or even by growing older. Ive found that existential questions form in my mind like puddles after a soaking rain.
Just as storm clouds gather, life throws us into vexing seasons of discernment and decision-making, often fueled by doubt, disillusionment, disappointment, or just plain drudgery. When this happens, we must set off to wander and wonder what we are here on earth for. We seek direction. Im guessing you picked up this book at a time in your life when you are contemplating deep questions about whats next.
These seasons of life may heat up or cool off, but they never completely go away. Whether youre just beginning to ponder your life ahead, in the middle of your working years, or considering the final season of life, everyone wants to live on purpose .
Thats what this wonderful book, You on Purpose , is all abouthelping you to answer these kinds of tough questions about the future youre stepping into.
