How do we find purpose in life?

Headshot of Bradley Wright

This is what I study--how people find their purpose in life.

Our Life Purpose Lab has developed a new approach to finding purpose. It's the Possibility Management Model. It identifies how people create, learn about, and enact the most meaningful possibilities in their lives.

Using this model, we created a workshop that guides people in finding their own purpose. Over five hundred people have participated in it, and about 5 out of 6 report significantly greater understanding of their purpose in life. They are also happier and more satisfied with their lives. These workshops, in turn, continually teach us more about how purpose works.

Essays about Purpose

Each month I publish an essay about the purpose-seeking process. These essays explore broader conceptualizations of purpose, advice for how to have more of it, and stories about people who live with great purpose. They also have updates about our work in the Life Purpose Lab. Available for free.

Live Workshop

In this group workshop, participants explore their own purpose in life as well as how to engage the purpose of the group. In this way, purpose discovery builds community and it makes the group more effective. The group, in turn, supports the individuals in living purposefully. Email me to schedule a conversation.

Recommended Resources

In studying purpose, we spend a lot of time reading and listening to what other people say about it. Some of this material is really helpful. Here are our favorite resources for guiding you in finding purpose. We've annotate them so that you know what you're getting, and we organize them by topic. Available for free.
