DISCOVERING PURPOSE & CONNECTION

Purpose and connection have become the theme of my practice, as I emphasize the simplicity, influence, and importance of achieving and living with purpose and connection every day. Connection is defined as loving people, and purpose is defined as loving what you do.

When we feel connection every day, or when we feel connected in mutually caring relationships, we feel joyful, contented, happy, fulfilled. When we feel purpose every day, or when we love what we’re doing, we feel the same.

Connection is defined as any relationship, bond, attachment, and close association with another person or several others. We have connections in our family, in our communities, with friends, and in places we work. Also in serving others, in participating in activities, and in sharing our work with others. We find deep connections in people we love, we find nurturing connections in those who care for us, and we find sustaining connections in friendships, associations, and our extended families.

Purpose is defined as doing something you love doing, you enjoy doing, and you're engaged in doing. Like hiking, gardening, reading, learning, exploring, or playing a sport. Or it's volunteering, writing, acting, boating, and making contributions to your neighbors or your community.

Hopefully and importantly, your work, or how you earn a living, is purposeful, as defined here. Because most of us have to work, and because we spend so much time at it, it's so much more enjoyable when it's purposeful, when we feel passionate about it. Caring for others like our children or older family members is also extremely purposeful, and it too fulfills this goal.

At discovery / solutions, we will talk about purpose and connection in the context of your life, looking for ways to both maintain and improve your daily experience of these. They are recognized and pursued as an integral part of positive and enriching mental health, resilience to depression and anxiety, and as treatment goals amidst other challenges. 

I welcome you in your discovery of purpose and connection in your life.
