031: An alternative way to find you purpose in this crazy world

from Under the Bodhi Tree · host Bodhi Samuel

Over the past few years, I've had countless conversations with old and new friends, family members, and even people sitting next to me on the bus. In many of these conversations, the topic of finding your place in the world, pops up. Time and time again, I find that so many people, as a result of our societal model, feel an overwhelming amount of stress, related to feeling like they "need to find the perfect job" or they have to "know" what they want to do with their lives. The current model is as such, go to school as a kid, through your schooling process, decide which occupational archetype youd like to fit into (with a very very base level idea of the reality of what it means to support yourself), pick your archetype, go to college for that, and spend the rest of your life, either trying to fit into that box, fitting into the box, or quiting and starting the entire cycle over. We, as a society, are a very outcome based and goal oriented population. We choose a career path, and stop at nothing to get there, only to find that when we've arrived, we've passed up more fitting opportunities along the way, and what we originally wanted, is no longer serving us. This week, ill offer an alternative and pratical model for finding our purpose and finding a way to make what we love sustainable. Its a big shift to get our head around, but if we can change the way we look at things, then we change the way things interact with us!
