You Have No Purpose Because You Won’t Do Hard Things
The antidote to a meaningless life
Most people have no purpose because they have no conflict in life their life.
Sure, they may have plenty problems, but no meaningful challenges that force them to grow.
Society isn’t set up to help you achieve a meaningful life. Rather than engaging in hard tasks, most people:
- Scroll their addictive social media
- Watch corporate-controlled news
- Engage in the current moral outrage trend
- Binging on sugary junk food (or Netflix)
It’s no wonder so many people feel empty and depressed. Engaging in activities like these — doing what everyone else is doing — forces us to play small.
Anything that requires us to get uncomfortable, stretch our current abilities, or challenges our narrative feels unbearable.
The only way to have purpose in life is to do hard things. To choose a worthy goal in life, face the obstacles that come with it, and overcome them.
Comfort kills purpose.
