This is the same problem with most people - always thinking of life purpose from career perspective. Believe it or not every living organism (especially man) has the same life purpose! And that is to SERVE GOD Period. But before you start saying everybody cannot be pastor/imam/priest etc, I implore you to think of a way where you can serve HUMANITY. Because once you lend yourself to the service of humanity in whatever capacity that is in tandem with your talent/passion such that you and the recipient of your service feel good. This life is not complex. Its quite simple actually. Just that we humans have perfected the skill of making the most simple things become unnecessarily complex. Most religious traditions tell us that God breathed into man and that is why their such a thing as humanity. That means every single human on this planet has God's breathe or God's spirit - irrespective of colour/tribe/religious beliefs etc. It therefore means if you lend your self (talents/passion/money etc) to the service of humanity, you are essentially serving God because His spirit is in us. One last proof/observation: Most self accomplished people at the peak of their achievement tend to setup a legacy to serve humanity. Have you asked why that is? These are people that got to the peak of their careers (which may or may not be what they think is their life purpose). They are board members of many "blue chip" companies, directors in government agencies or simply established business men/women. Many of them are men/women of integrity, they are hard working, loyal and have many of the qualities listed. Yet they still feel this inclination that "something is missing". So, in their quest to quench the thirst of fulfilling their life purpose, they build schools or give scholarships, they build hospitals or setup orphanages or support some noble courses like eradicating polio/malaria/sickel cell etc. Of course, people don't need to be Bill Gate to serve humanity. You serve humanity in your own little way. Just make sure whatever it is makes you feel good and the recipient is also blessed by it. 4 Likes |

Malakh: Are you being sarcastic or honest with your view, because what you just wrote is actually true and that is truly one's purpose and not about choosing a field of interest. |

gists: Well said but would not be properly understood because many people on nairaland are teenagers and undergraduates struggling with choice of career or field of interest just like the OP 1 Like |

Boss13:Well spoken dear; but I'm not an undergraduate. I'm a doctor. Thanks for dropping a comment. |
Re: How You Can Discover Your Purpose On Earth by Boss13: 10:16pm On Oct 06, 2015 |
Dear OP, I appreciate your writing. Honestly, it is inspiring, better than the insults and distasteful comments we read regularly on this forum. However, I am afraid to inform you that your thread has a misleading subject. Life purpose is different from Career purpose. Life purpose is about serving humanity and not from a selfish point of view. A selfless service to humanity. I presumed from your writing that you are yet to graduate from medical school and I am also glad to inform you that what you went through is very common with young adults. If you had chosen to become an importer of drugs, you probably will succeed, if you had chosen to be a pastor like Oyedepo, you probably will succeed with that too, though I don't like this field because of their perpetual greed, and I also wish you succeed to be a doctor, if you are not one already. All it takes it self conviction, sheer determination and persistence. Any field on earth we pick for ourselves already has God's approval as long as it hurts nobody. I will encourage young people who are having trouble picking a career to read this, but please don't confuse this for life purpose. That is a totally distinctive issue. 1 Like |

Boss13:not being sarcastic, its fact, there's no two ways about it, some peoples purpose is earthly and some divine, earth goes to the earth, all your celebs are the stars on earth and we have have our stars in heaven truth of the matter is a life without any divinity is meaningless and wasted, earthly people are born and they die just to back to the dust, that is not life.... 1 Like |

U didn't mention u are good in writing too. God Wil gradually reveal more assignmentto u as u go higher. U might finally be a pastor if need be, but he will have to take u places to gather necessary experience and make a mark b4 taking u to the next level. just keep all ur write ups handy and record all motivational talks u hold with ppl. God has a way of using ppl to speak His will without u knowing what and what u spoke. Remain blessed. 1 Like 1 Share |
