You Don't Have One Purpose (Paperback)

Paperback. What if you were never meant to find one purpose for your life?We are often encouraged to "find our purpose"-as though somewhere inside each of us is one great calling waiting to be discovered. Find it, and life will make sense. Miss it, and perhaps we have somehow failed.You Don't Have One Purpose challenges that idea.Our lives can contain many purposes. Some may last decades. Others may belong to a season, a relationship, an opportunity, a disappointment, or an ordinary afternoon. A purpose does not have to last a lifetime to have mattered.Through personal stories drawn from work, motherhood, travel, relationships, career disruption, service, entrepreneurship, loss, pleasure, and ordinary life, Dr. Aderonke Kujore explores what changes when we stop demanding that one calling explain our entire existence.The book culminates in a simple practice: Free. Explore. Embrace. Free yourself from the pressure to discover one defining purpose. Explore what is present in your moments, relationships, opportunities, interests, and seasons. Embrace the fullness of life-including what is planned and unplanned-without forcing every experience into a neat explanation.You do not have to treat your life as an unanswered problem. You may already be living many forms of purpose.Many purposes. One life. This item is printed on demand.
