| Our Unique Purpose
by cottagebithec at 8/27/2008 10:40:15 PM
The following is an email I got today from a friend who works with teenagers dealing with addiction. He often shares his thoughts (with friends) about what he will focus on during the next week with his charges. Each time it gives me something to think about and I thought I would share part of it with you.
Hello friend,
I have been thinking about the power and importance of doing whatever we do with passion and purpose.
Even if we are not sure of what our unique purpose and contribution to the world is, we can do whatever we are doing purposefully and with enthusiasm – our purpose will eventually emerge.
We can try this out with someone who isn't suspecting it. Use a little more eye contact, a little more smile, a little firmer handshake, or a little more service.
The difference between good and great is often very small – like the .01 second margin of victory in Michael Phelps' 100 meter butterfly race!
