It all means nothing in the end (a talk by Amy Hupe)

During her presentation at the State of the Browser event, Amy Hupe provides a set of recommendations aimed at enhancing the sense of purpose in one’s work.

Rather than regarding work as a final destination, view it as a pathway to realizing your true purpose.

Jot down your primary skills, experiences, and values, and then condense them into a concise “core perspective” or purpose statement.

Now, the next step is to identify strategies for fulfilling that purpose, which can be achieved through the establishment of specific goals.

When considering possible goals, ask:

• Does this connect to my purpose?
• Do I actually care about achieving this goal?
• Is this a goal I can actually achieve?
• How will I know if I’m making progress?
