What is your mission?

Here is a question to ask yourself. What is your mission? What's your purpose? What's your quest to fulfill in this life?

We all have a mission in life, and our task is to find our true purpose for being here, and to then act on that. Ultimately money has nothing to do with it, because life is so much bigger than that. Life is bigger than how many digits appear when you check your bank account. Life is bigger than what kind of car you drive or the clothes you wear or the home you live in.

Of course you want what's best for yourself and for your family and loved ones. But what's best for yourself (and them by extension) - is for you to find that purpose, and to act on it. That's your mission. That's my mission. That is everyone's mission. Nobody on the planet is excluded. We all have some role to play here.

So what is your mission?

    One of the toughest questions to answer, I guess!

    Still, I think many people do have some sense of the direction in which they want to go. I remember that even when I was a kid, I wanted to be independent and to be a business owner of some sort.

    Of course, a mission can and usually is larger than just becoming a business owner.

    Despite that, I'm definitely glad I followed up on that dream.

    Thanks!

    I think we have various missions in life on different levels. My mission in Internet Marketing is to get to a certain level of income to prove to myself that I can do it.

    My mission in life in general has a spiritual focus. It influences all other areas of my life.

    That's a tricky question I guess. But if you know the book "Purpose Driven Life", it is said there that we were born for Christ, we have a purpose to do for him and not for anything else.

        Our life mission changes as we move through life.

        My mission in IM is to earn a really good living at something that I really enjoy doing.

        My overall mission in life is to lead the best life that I can possibly lead and be happy - very happy.

        I aim to be fair to everyone (although I quite often fail at this) but at the end of every day, I like to look back and feel that I have the done the best that I could with the talents I have been given.

        I hope that when I leave this planet I will have done some good for those who are coming behind me.

        Good Luck,

        Arny

    That's a very thought provoking question 11811

    My mission.... Do the best I can in life - Bring some happiness into other people's lives - Challenge myself! - Complete my bucket list.

    I've often thought that "if everyone helped at least one person live a better life", then this world would be a whole lot better for everyone.

    I was going to say..

    be filthy rich, have 10 trophy wifes and own my own small island

    but I think learning, education and helping people are some of the best gifts life has to offer.

    My mission is right on my signature.

    There are millions of people in marketing who are motivating themselves the wrong way. People's minds just don't wrap around long-term goals. My program, which I call the Earn More Spend More Group plan contains a better way. I have a step by step program set up to help you motivate yourself and your team. I believe you will agree; it is a much better way.

    I will promote the Earn More Spend More Group plan. That is my mission.

      The mission I'm on is clear to me but seems virtually impossible to get at the moment because of constant stress. I lost count on the many setbacks and failures I've had so far but I'm determined to make the dream a reality. I should play the mission impossible song daily to help motivate me. I love that song!

  • What I have discovered is this. My mission is to provide as much value as I can muster to everyone I come in contact with how ever many times this happens.

    I can't think of a better way to live life than to help others perceive received value. Nothing makes another person happier than to be not only treated fairly but to receive something that is personally treasured, . . . even if its as simple as a smile.
