When people ask me, "How do I know what my purpose is in life?", I tell them to look at what is on the inside. 1. What are your desires? 2. What are your passions? 3. What is that thing that you seem to be good at naturally? Those are clues of what you hold for your future. We are continually transitioning and learning and experiencing from one season to the next. With everything you learn and experience in the current season, it is usually used in the next season in some way
