There's a free eBook at Inspired Money Maker - How To Make Money Doing What You Love called the Passion Project that's very good to find it out. Generally, I would say, look for your purpose first. And then I would choose a top-down approach to realize that purpose. Well, at least that's what I did.

But still, I don't understand that you don't feel it when you like something.
I know it may sound strange, but I am simply not a person with strong emotions or feelings, so if you were to ask me "what do you really love", my answer is "Umm, I don't know".

I have yet to figure out my purpose (or even if I have one!), and in fact I was hoping this thread would lead me towards that, because if I could figure out what really drives me it would help narrow down a purpose.

The only really good thing I have achieved in this area is discovering my "Genius" (reference - "Is your Genius at work?" by Dick Richards - one of Steve's recommended books). Actually I might start a new thread on that one

Thanks for the link, I will try the Passion Project thing.
