A mission statement for your life, really?

Yes, Really

Forming a mission statement for your life is an exercise in articulating your personal and professional direction.

Fast Company put out an article about this:  why your life needs a mission statement

What to consider
Here are some things to consider when trying to formulate an overarching statement that helps keep you focused on your purpose and eventual end-game victory (or victories, as it were).

The following bullet points can help put you in the mind-set to develop your personal mission statement for your life (the idea is to have an aim that you can continuously set your compass to):

• fantasize about your perfect day or week
• list your passions
• identify your talents
• consider core values

 Here’s my basic mission:  Be good, kind, creative, expressive, and professional to inspire others and build positive relationships that offer mutual benefit.
