A LIFE OF PURPOSE    As we transition from the theme of purpose-full struggle to embracing a life of purpose, our Purpose Pioneers recognise the power of deeply rooted values and elevated purposes. Often earned through challenge and struggle, these elevated purposes become the foundation upon which we build meaningful connections, delivering impactful work and contributions to the communities we serve.    We begin our ‘Life of Purpose’ journey with Dame Sally Coates and hope you find this clip as inspiring as we do, as we enter the Christmas season. #Purpose #Purposeful #Life

Life doesn’t always go the way we expect. The real power of purpose isn’t about avoiding possible failure and discomfort — it’s about engaging with it.    In this warm and thought-provoking conversation with Hermann Niebuhr, he shares his insights in a very real way, highlighting how purpose can guide us through even the most challenging moments.    Purpose is indeed ‘Live’ and a guiding force when we need it.    #purpose #purposeful #mindset

It was a privilege to once more join our Belron® friends in the training room this week as they explored how to become purpose-full leaders within their purpose-led organisation.    Our training team Nicola Vickers, Mark Collins, Felicity Webb were deeply inspired by the engagement, insights and energy brought by this remarkable group of leaders. A true highlight was discovering the dynamic relationship between purpose and outcomes – a powerful takeaway for many.   Thank you for two very special and impactful days!    #purpose #purposeful #purposeled #leadershipdevelopment

Each of us at times can struggle with resolving the tension between externally imposed targets and our higher purposes, which are often in service of wider more expansive outcomes.    Federico Frattini shares his experience and insights on this, in this next clip. #purpose #purposeful #purposefulbusiness

Carsten Egeriis delves into the importance of mindset and purpose as we navigate challenges and struggle. It’s through these experiences that we truly come to appreciate the transformative impact of purpose.   What’s your experience of the relationship between struggle and purpose? Please do share in the comments… #purpose #purposeful #mindset #selfrealisation

Sometimes, the path of being purpose-full is paved with struggle and sacrifice. When we are driven by something bigger than ourselves, as Kevin Davis DL says, “the sacrifice is worth it”, fuelling us to meet challenges in service of our values and our communities.   #purpose #purposeful #socialchange #youthempowerment

Karsten Breum reminds us that in times of struggle and challenge, connecting to our purpose is essential, though not easy!   The more difficult the situation, the more vital it is.    Karsten's words are an inspiring call to be aware and act on our chosen purposes in the ‘every day’ of our working lives.   #purpose #purposeful #selfawareness #selfreflection  

“The Struggle is Real”   We are all human in the struggle to be purpose-full in busy and challenging business contexts and in life. Allowing our humanity and being self-aware is key. Purpose Pioneer Caoire Blakemore inspires here with her own practiced and practical experience of the struggle. #purpose #struggle #mindset #selfawareness
