Living a life of purpose makes a world of difference. You can do a lot about the way you live. The key resides in having a strong desire to embrace and live a life of purpose, and making a commitment to do so every day.
 

You are courageous when you take responsibility for the way you live and when you are determined to make the most out of life. Life is too short to waste by staying in your comfort zone; there is more to life that what you can see and feel. It’s time to act and make your life count. Dare yourself to start today.
 
 

1. To live a life with purpose, you need to have passion.


Passion is the way in which you approach life; it’s the fuel that propels you to live a purpose-driven life. Passion is more than a feeling or an emotion. Feelings and emotions come and go, and passion is constant.
 
Passion it’s not an attitude that you wait to develop in order to be ready to say “I am passionate about life” or anything else that you want to be passionate about. Passion is an unstoppable drive and enthusiasm.
 
Your drive and enthusiasm come from a deep desire to be different and to live life like you mean it. You need a reason that’s greater than simply existing for one more day. You need to challenge yourself to get out of your comfort zone and dare to follow your heart — no just your mind — to live with purpose.
 
 

2. Give yourself permission to live a life of purpose.


Accept your life as it is now. Leave the past and the future where they belong. Be in the now. You can’t change the past and you can’t control the future. Stop comparing yourself to others. There will always be people whose lives are better than yours and people whose lives are worse than yours.
 
Comparing yourself to others only prevents you from moving forward in life. It’s okay to admire things about people, not to compare yourself to them. Be kind to yourself, don’t be a judge of yourself. Recognize and embrace the worth in you.
 
Give yourself permission to live a life of purpose. Your value and significance in life aren’t based on what others think of you; this comes from within. Don’t allow others to tell you who you are and define you. You are bigger thank you may think. Love yourself for you are of great worth.
 
 

3. Life is more about the journey than the destination.


When you learn and understand that life is more about the journey than the destination, you can truly embrace a life of purpose. Keep in mind that purpose requires passion, and passion requires determination, commitment, and action.
 
The way you approach life may need change. Also, your attitude and the way you spend your time may need change. Making changes in your life is worth it, particularly if the changes are to add more value to it; the kind of value that makes you look forward to another day enthusiastically.
 
If you embrace a life lived with passion, you won’t go through life experiencing as many fears like regret. You’ll live in the now, making the most out of each day no matter what situations you go through in the journey of life. Each situation will teach you something valuable if you open your mind to it.
