There is a lot of talk around me about knowing your purpose and following it passionately.
Well the one thing I could never understand is how to figure what 'my purpose' is! Is my career, is it my ventures with Fi or something so very different that I will never be able to figure it out! And it frustrates me.
Then Rajshree happened. She is Priya's (my boss) friend and was invited to talk to us about her work and help us figure some of the issues we face. She got us to define passion but just touched on purpose, but didn't really dwell on it too much.
Rajshree made me curious, it was high time I needed to understand what my purpose was, and the time was now.
So I went scavenging, trying to understand who I am, and what I see myself doing and check the trends that different situations have created.
The last clue, which I think has lead to my discovery was reading Fi's blog.
I think, my purpose is to encourage, to encourage others to do the best they can and listen and be there for them, when they need some support.
Until I actually discover what my real purpose is, I think I am going to stick to this one.
I don't think this is a bad 'purpose' for someone to follow and be passionate about :)
