Purpose
We are all searching for meaning in life: an answer to the eternal ‘why?’ The good news: we can and do create our own meaning. How? There are many paths to purpose according to existential psychologists. But the main gist was spotted by Abraham Maslow, known for his hierarchy of needs. He discovered a paradox, that self-actualization requires self-transcendence. Making our lives personally meaningful requires that we pursue something beyond ourselves. Something bigger. Something that makes a difference in other people’s lives. It could be at work, in the community or elsewhere.
