Desire vs Purpose

I was reading Will Smith book, Will. In his book he express how desire and purpose are similar but yet different. Smith say, " Desire is personal, narrow, and pointed, and tends towards self-preservation, self-gratification, and short-term gains and pleasures. Purpose is wider, broader, a long-term vision encompassing the benefits of others- something outside of yourself you're willing to fight for." I felt this was powerful and important part of life to understand. #NoRegertsJustsLifeLessons
