Pursuit of Purpose

CLG Course Description:

This Connect Learn Grow session will focus on helping you discover your purpose:

“The graveyard is the richest place on the surface of the earth because there you will see the books that were not published, ideas that were not harnessed, songs that were not sung, and drama pieces that were never acted.” ...Dr. Myles Munroe. You are not an accident, and certainly not a mistake. You are here for a purpose. To become the best version of yourself, it is important to understand your potential, passion, and purpose.

Your Potential is what you are capable of becoming that you haven’t become yet. It is what you have been given or made up of— your personality, and traits. It’s the raw materials that predispose you to act and do certain things. They do not necessarily determine your fate.

Your Passion is how you express what you have been given. It encompasses your values and interests. Your passion is what drives you and what you find rewarding. It keeps you up at night. Your desires outweigh your doubts in your passion zone.

Your Purpose is your why? It answers the question of why you are here? It gives you an understanding of what you are to do (potential) and how to achieve it (passion). Purpose helps you focus on what is most important.

The intersection of your potential, passion, and purpose is your lifework. Your lifework:

• Is not about you

• Serves a higher purpose

• Goes beyond fear

• Grow to become the best version of yourself

Learning Objectives:

Week 1: Understanding Your Potential

Week 2: Following your North Star

Week 3: Discovering your purpose

Week 4: Lifework Statement

At the end of the CLG course, participants would say:

1. I have a better understanding of who I am, why I am here, and what I am going to do about it.

2. I am empowered to pursue my dreams and make a positive difference in the world.

3. It’s a relief to know that I don’t have to do everything.

Activities

We will start the CLG sessions with Icebreaker activities. These Icebreakers would have signed with the theme of the workshop. Examples include breaking participants into groups and having them find out what they all have in common.

Participants would also have the opportunity to ask questions and give feedback as the workshop progresses. Hands-on activities and group exercises will strongly be encouraged.

Pre-work

• Participants will receive course materials prior to the session.
