I did the 20 minute purpose finding exercise from one of Steve's articles. After three sessions, each about a half an hour long, I found a purpose that made me cry: To teach people to connect with and to be true to their Divine self. Wow, that is some HIGH purpose, and I have difficulty visualizing how I'm going to implement it. Before that, I picked a purpose statement in a more intellectual way: To heal and empower by channeling my true spiritual identity in all areas of my life. Now, based on this purpose, how do I go about choosing an actual career? It seems so incredibly general, that I could literally do anything and to still be doing it.

Did anyone else go through this process of applying their general purpose to real life? I would love some examples!

Thanks!
