Have you ever found yourself contemplating the meaning of life? High-achieving professionals and leaders are often driven by a desire for purpose and impact. If you want to find meaning, stop searching for it and look for ways to create it.
Create Meaning
Here are nine things you could do to make meaning:
- Volunteer: Give your time and skills to support those in need, whether in your community or globally.
- Express Yourself: You are an expert in something someone else is trying to learn. Share your expertise through creativity. Paint something, write something, sing something, or share a photograph that touches hearts and inspires others. My newsletter is one way I express myself and provide value to others.

- Personal Growth: Invest in your personal and professional growth and development, striving to become the best version of yourself and inspiring others.
- Spread Positivity: Be a beacon of positivity in the world, spreading joy, optimism, and encouragement wherever you go.
