Book Excerpt
Champion Your Career
Purpose relates to finding and sharing our gifts and talents as only we can uniquely express them. Living in passion and purpose is so important to our needs as humans that, without these elements being fulfilled, most people will live empty, meaningless, depressing lives.
Because your work life takes up a significant part of your adult life on a day-to-day basis, it is completely vital to bring your passions and the meaning you give to your life’s purpose into your work environment. Defining your purpose is the first step in doing work that you love; work that encourages you to grow as a human being.
