      INTRODUCTION

      W hat do you really need in life? Besides the obvious, food and water, you might consider achieving happiness, knowing your purpose , having positive relationships, taking pride in what you do, finding a soulmate, having peace in your life, and realizing progress . Let’s focus on three replies—purpose, pride, and progress. There are three valuable questions you should ask yourself periodically:

      What is my purpose?

      Do I incorporate pride in all that I do?

      Is progress my ultimate goal?

      When there is a task to complete, an important life event, or a desire to increase your personal development, it is important to appreciate and incorporate into your life purpose, pride, and progress.

      How would you apply these three components to an aspect of your life? Let’s use happiness as an example. Is your purpose to dole out happiness to a select few or to share it with the masses? How will you integrate pride while distributing happiness? Will it be a low-key endeavor or a loud and proud affair? What does progress in dispensing happiness look like? Is it measured in the amount of people touched by your happiness, or is it evident in a single smile? Asking questions then answering those questions by utilizing an action plan is an effective method to help you realize purpose, pride, and progress.

      Approximately 50% of marriages end in a divorce, more than 70% of people don’t feel satisfied with their careers, and a low percentage of people achieve success with their goals. Purpose, pride, and progress, when truly understood,
