A sense of purpose can help you live a happier life. There are many benefits to having a sense of purpose. Here are three of them.

Eliminates Confusion

When you know where you are going in life you don't have to wallow around in indecision. You focus on your purpose and do everything which helps you to live in line with it. Your lifestyle will be congruent with the type of person you want to be.

When you have a sense of purpose you will not be persuaded easily by other people. When we allow ourselves to be swayed in a particular direction based upon the opinions of others then we invite confusion into our lives.

So often in life we are influenced to do things that we don't really want to do. Usually the forces attempting to influence us are working in their own best interests and not ours. These conflicting objectives could come from advertisers, friends, employers and even family members.

Once you get clear on your purpose and begin living it then you will gain clarity.

Overcomes Problems

When you have a sense of purpose you are not tossed to and fro by life's challenges. You may have problems like everyone else, but your problems are always seen through the prism of your desired destination.

You are constantly thinking about where it is that you are headed. This helps you to put problems in their proper prospective. They are never permanent when you have a future oriented outlook on life. There is a saying that you should repeat to yourself. When you are faced with a problem it helps to say, "This too shall pass."

"Success is never permanent, and failure is never final." Mike Ditka.

Even though there are many ups and downs in life, you are able to weather the storm when you know that it is a part of your life's mission. You may not have all of the answers right now, but you will eventually be able to look back and see how a problem played a big part in your overall success. It simply takes time to put everything into perspective. A sense of purpose helps you to see the big picture so that you can have a great attitude even as you are going through challenges.

Fosters Expectancy

When you have a sense of purpose for your life it gives you something to look forward to everyday. You have a reason to get out of bed in the morning. You will have a cheerful attitude when you are working towards something that matters greatly to you.

The excitement of working towards a dream will make you feel happier. When you have a purpose you will live with the anticipation of fulfilling your dream. A sense of purpose causes you to feel good because life has meaning for you.
