Living with purpose does not necessarily mean that we must all discover a big transcendent reason for our existence(see Chapter 10). It can be as simple as waking up in the morning and knowing that we will choose to be in the now and do our best work. For many people, just knowing that today is a chance to learn and to grow as a person is intention enough; others prefer to be working toward a specific goal. Life goals should be more about being than about having.
