Tim that was a great post. I found you while doing a search on google for the keyword ‘determination’. I have always used “the Big Idea” in my business. In fact I’ve written about it many times. I create digital information products such as books, videos, reports and more that other entrepreneurs can resell.

Finding the Big Idea is another matter. As you say, you’ve “been struggling to articulate” your Big Idea. It’s not as easy as it sounds as you’ve noted. It requires that you take the complex and simplify it to it’s essence so that it can be spoken in a single phrase. Ideally the Big Idea will also include a huge benefit to the reader.

I also agree that the purpose of life is a ‘pull’ not a ‘drive’- that your true purpose is like magnet – pulling you towards it. Most people rebel against it, fight it, but your true purpose can only be revealed by giving up of one’s ego and following it.

that last quote you have has stirred up all the right ideas in my head about my life. i’ve always wanted to help the world, not just the greedy selfabsorbed people in the US. If i could reach out to the world and have just a small percentage get what life can truly be, i would be able to die a happy and fulfilled man. well i just wanted to get that out of my head, no one around to talk their ear off. thanks for listening.
