Building on our clarifying work with our ideals and values, we begin to list out possible Higher Purposes in three areas: Personal, Professional, and Community. We create a chart and review it, adding, editing, and deleting ideas that don't feel right, over time. With this, we observe patterns. We can confidently take up some opportunities and decline others.
