According to Mark Manson, (The Art Of Not Giving A Fuck), says the purpose is not just one thing but multiple things in life. How purpose can change (compared to when you are 20 to when you are 30 or 40), and another thing is how Purpose does not solve everything in your life.
We will still live with some sadness, crankiness, happiness. Even if we have our dream job doesn't mean we wont wake up not okay some days.
Having no purpose in life will make everything else meaningless, and developing a sense of purpose in life is a good skill to gradually develop when one o your purpose falls through, and you can lean on one of your other purposes in life.
Creating purpose- Purpose is the feeling that you are spending your time well and that your challenges are meaningful. Purpose can be found in many things, including a close relationship with someone, a passion for a cause you believe in, it can come from achieving goals or even enjoying whatever you are doing at that moment.
Purpose, long-term, is a sense that something matters more than yourself. Purpose is an activity, an idea, or a person or a relationship that you are willing to sacrifice for, that you are willing to give something up for, Not only "willing" but you are "pleased" to give something up for it.
