“Many people are driven by the need for approval. They allow the expectations of parents or spouses or children or teachers or friends to control their lives.

Unfortunately, those who follow the crowd usually get lost in it.”

“The search for the purpose of life has puzzled people for thousands of years. That’s because we typically begin at the wrong starting point—ourselves. We ask self-centered questions like What do I want to be? What should I do with my life? What are my goals, my ambitions, my dreams for my future? But focusing on ourselves will never reveal our life’s purpose.”
