The Purpose Checkup


Greetings all!

Do you ever wonder what your purpose in life is? Have you discovered your unique gift?

Read each statement carefully and take a few moments to decide on a true response for yourself. Then write the number that most nearly reflects that response. The answers offer the following range of responses:
0.  Can’t Decide.
1.  Definitely disagree.
2.  Somewhat disagree.
3.  Somewhat agree.
4.  Definitely agree.

Interpretation
Having (Outer Life) – The dimension of your external experience and activity—how effectively you relate to the “having” choices in your life.
Doing (Inner Life) – The dimension of your internal experience and inner activity—how effectively you relate to the “doing” choices in your life.
Being (Spiritual Life) – The dimension of your invisible experience and spiritual activity—how effectively you relate to the “being” choices in your life.
Scoring
Your score in each section is one measure of your development in that dimension. Your total Purpose Checkup score (out of 84) gives a measure of the power of purpose you are experiencing in your life at present. 
64 – 84  Yes, living purposefully! You’re clear about what truly matters to you and you’re mattering in the world.

43 – 63  Yes, basically fulfilled! Keep on growing and giving in your life.

22 – 42  Unlocking purpose requires more clarity. The next step: Clarify your gifts, passions, and values.

21 – 0  Living purposefully isn’t reserved for the elite few. So, don’t give up because your score right now is low. The power of purpose process works, if you work the process!
