Knowing your purpose gives meaning to your life.
Knowing your purpose simplifies your life.
Knowing your purpose focuses your life.
Knowing your purposes motivates your life.
Knowing your purpose prepares you for eternity.

If you want your life to have impact, focus it! Stop dabbling. Stop trying to do it all. Do less. Prune away even good activities and do only what which matters most.

You weren’t put on the earth to be remembered. You were put here to prepare for eternity.
