Core principles

The ideas that run through Finding Meaning, Purpose & Legacy.

  • 1.
    Purpose is discovered through action, not decided in solitude.
  • 2.
    Legacy isn't one-size-fits-all — find the pathway that fits your strengths.
  • 3.
    Legacy is built in the present tense. The future doesn't get a draft.
  • 4.
    Meaning compounds. Small contributions, repeated, become significance.
Hurry is not a strategy. It's a symptom of a life that hasn't found its purpose yet.
From Finding Meaning, Purpose & Legacy, Book 02
