Today’s conversation is focused around fulfilling our
purpose and reason for being on the planet in the first place. Are
you interested in experiencing greater success in your business and
your life? But, wondering how are the two connected in the first
place? As Benjamin Disraeli has said, the secret to success is
constancy to purpose. But what if you don’t really know your
purpose or can’t figure it out in the first place, as Bishop T.D.
Jakes once said, if you can’t figure out your purpose, figure out
your passion; for your passion will lead you right into your
purpose. On this philosophically rich and insightful episode, Dr.
Norton and co-host Bruce Hurley will deep dive into how core
purpose sets the foundation and is the touchstone for your greatest
success and fulfilment.
Make sure to also catch the Mindfluence Challenge of
the week detailing the 6 critical questions you can ask yourself to
clarify and articulate your core purpose.
