Next week's topic is: Adventure! I know you’ll love it.

“I am a freelancer and I find it hard to make my business work well. I have been in events, trainings, I even paid for specific training programs to try to find if there is something in me that is not letting me succeed.
I read about spirituality, self-help, business... but something is getting me stuck.

Do you think that having clarity about my purpose in life will help my business finally give me some stability?” — Anonymous

Your question feels so familiar. Aren’t we all trying, in our own ways, to reach our potential and finally be at peace?

The life of the freelancer, the entrepreneur, the person seeking independence, is, in my opinion, the tougher path. The ups and downs hit us harder because we don’t have a company or a collective to soften the difficult moments. And I also believe something else: solopreneurs, freelancers, and independent professionals are quietly revolting against a system that no longer serves us.

People like you and me need communities of support. Not audiences who might buy our products or services, but spaces where we can talk, be understood, and feel safe to be as we are.

When you think about stability, you’re probably imagining the moment when you don’t have to worry anymore about money or bills. But I believe life always brings some level of uncertainty. Once money is solved, we worry about something else — how to save it, how to invest it, how to keep it coming. From that mindset, the worries just change shape.

Having clarity about your purpose is essential because it helps you understand the connection between what you do and how you feel. Imagine your purpose as a GPS: when you feel bad, it’s asking you to turn in a different direction.

Entrepreneurship, in all its forms, is about doing what makes us feel energized, empowered, and creative, regardless of the consequences. We persist in different ways. Sometimes it feels like survival, but after a few years, we look back and see that we’ve mastered skills we couldn’t even imagine earlier.

Success is doing what we love without taking the ups and downs so seriously.

The stability you seek is an attitude — not the result your mind is using as a precondition. Your life gets easier when you know that today is when you can change your attitude, and you don’t need something to happen to feel different. You will see that a small step is enough to bring the next one more easily.

You lose nothing, maybe you get a good answer :)

Yes! I'm ready

Different ages, different countries, all entrepreneurial in their own ways.

As you read them, I suggest holding two simple questions in mind:

  • Can this be lived today?

  • Does the daily practice of this purpose create compound growth and personal development over time?

Enjoy:

“My purpose is to build digital tools that help people improve their lives.” — Jani

“The purpose of life is to live it. Just live. No overthinking, no chasing.” — Evamarija

“Live a calm, creative, and intentional life and inspire others by sharing my journey.” — Rachna Ghiya

“My life purpose is to design the life as I want it to be, which includes having my life values and work values aligned.” — Claudia Faith

“To truly live my own life to the fullest, knowing why I am here, being authentic to who I really am, and walking the adventurous path of life while building strong, genuine connections and creating meaningful value for others.” — Viktor

“My life purpose is to spark curiosity and courage in others so they dare to create their own remarkable path beyond the ordinary.” — Sterling

“Inspire and empower people with the tools/resources so they can choose for themselves instead of being slaves to a system” — Juan

“Eating quality food, building stuff with friends, being in nature.” — Marko Balažic.

“Make my community at least 1% better than it was when I was born.” — Anonymous

“I love doing what’s meaningful to me: help my kids mature, nourish other relationships, inspire everyone I can reach to build a good life with skills for happiness and well-being.” — Jane Xu

“Navigating between experiencing as much of the world as possible while keeping my dearest people close to my heart.” — Sandra.

When we look at these purpose statements side by side, we see a pattern: we all want to live authentically, stay free, grow through experience, and make life around us a little better. Purpose is not a destination; it’s a way of living today, in small, honest steps that compound over time.

I am here to support you on your path to the best of my abilities. Reach out, let’s have a conversation.
