“The problem that I see is that people think that they are going to find their purpose by sitting at home and reflecting… and that just doesn’t work.
What the research has found about finding purpose is that it is often its catalyzed by an experience that you have gone through.
And frequently it’s an experience that you did not want to have. Many people find purpose in their [current or past] challenges.”
Stephanie Harrison is the Founder and CEO of The New Happy – a platform that is focused on lasting happiness and how we can actually focus on changing the world for the better.
