Your
Personal Mission Statement
“Writing or reviewing a mission statement changes you
because it forces you to think through your priorities deeply, carefully, and
to align your behaviour with your beliefs”
~Stephen
Covey
A personal mission consists of 3 parts:
- What do I want to do?
- Who do I want to help?
- What is the result? What value will I create?
Steps to Creating Your Personal Mission Statement:
1. Do the exercise with the 15 questions above as quickly as
you can.
2. List out actions words you connect with.
a.
Example: educate, accomplish, empower, encourage, improve, help,
give, guide, inspire, integrate, master, motivate, nurture, organize, produce,
promote, travel, spread, share, satisfy, understand, teach, write, etc.
3. Based on your answers to the 15 questions. List
everything and everyone that you believe you can help.
a.
Example: People, creatures, organizations, causes, groups,
environment, etc.
4. Identify your end goal. How will the ‘who’ from your
above answer benefit from what you ‘do’?
5. Combine steps 2-4 into a sentence, or 2-3 sentences.

your purpose? What is your mission? We’d love to hear about your goals and

Connecting with who I am and who I can and want to become, has been a great and wonderful exercise in learning and gaining a better clarity about myself - my life, thank you Pavan.
Give it a go for yourself.

I could only hope to inspire, and encourage younger people like myself to pursue their dreams in spite of their fears, doubts, circumstances, or negativity surrounding them. Going through this exercise provided me with a more concrete reason for pursuing my dreams and why I want to reach certain goals. Thanks !

DO BEFORE DIE AND MAKE IT LARGE
By educating, helping, motivating, encouraging, and inspiring people to know themselves, and accepting, (truly and wholly) who they are, to then live their purpose and then become whole and complete.
By educating people about mental illness, to try my best to help get rid of the negative connotations and prejudices that people often have.
To help people who deal with mental illness, to let them know that they are not alone. To encourage them to learn all they can about their diagnosis', to accept it, and to help them see that it can actually be a gift. And to encourage them to always seek and have help.
I will create, improve, and educate all people so together we can solve the problems of
life, to move us forward as a species.
To empower people with my words, and my art, to become more accepting of others, regardless of shape, size, color, race, gender, or sexual orientation.
To feed and cultivate my own and other's natural curiosities in hopes that our future curiosities will drive our societies to a world of understanding and connectivity.
This is really nice. To look into ourselves and re evaluate
I want to use my skills as a singer/entertainer to inspire young women/men to embrace all aspects of who they are and teach them that they are so much more than their body and sex. I want to teach young men/women that they are equals, both deserving of heath, happiness and dignity. I want to acknowledge the objectification of women in social media and eliminate it.
I want to empower, inspire and motivate people with my skills of teaching dance, so they can feel the freedom it gives me, for themselves.
I also want to open people's minds to another way of thinking - one without prejudice and full of understanding and acceptance for others and their way of life.
To push the limits and to explore the worlds beyond this one. To expand minds to be accepting of all differences- human and alien alike. To pursue knowledge of the stars, and to bring total equality to all sentient beings.
I want to use all of my resources to help anybody learn the truth in and about life.
I want to help the world understand so we can think differently and work together towards peace, earth preservation, personal growth, and unity.
My purpose is to give "real life" for Google... so you can search and found it.
I want my art to have an impact on people. I want them to be able to connect with my art and use it for self help and to heal themselves, to make them laugh, to make them cry. I want my art to be an experience for all those who see it.

i will inspire, create, love, trust, help, travel, overcome, believe, breathe, and conquer! I want to help people, the environment, my friends and family to always believe in themselves and to always keep pushing through whether it be happy or sad. I will love myself first and others, be friendly and kind to everyone you met because you have no clue how they might influence you or what they are going through. I want to help people create a more happy, free, healthy mindset. and to remind that life is simple, do what you love, be true to yourself and others, and it'll all come together!
I really don't like myself.
