A Purpose Driven Life Summary
“A pretentious, showy life is an empty life; a plain and simple life is a full life.”
Rick Warren believes that life is divided into two kinds of lives, those lived from our natural self, and those lived from God’s perspective. This book is about the latter kind of life. From his perspective, he argues that we should live our lives according to our purpose.
Warren claims that life without a clear mission statement is both aimless and meaningless. A life lived only in pursuit of self makes us unhappy and empty. However, a life lived only for God produces joy and fulfilment.
In this book Rick Warren explains what life means to him and how he came to understand that his life had a purpose. It is filled with practical advice on how anyone can discover their purpose in life.
The book starts with the concept of the spiritual journey and describes various stages involved in finding your true meaning in life. Warren suggests that we should always work towards achieving our highest potential. We must learn to surrender and give ourselves completely to whatever we do. As we grow spiritually, we begin to know what matters most to us. At the same time, we discover a sense of peace within ourselves.
He states that finding our purpose is easier when we take time to think about what we really want in life. In fact, it is much better to ask others what they would like to achieve in life rather than trying to figure things out ourselves.
This book provides a thorough explanation of the principles of becoming who you were created to be. You will gain insight into the different stages of life that lead to finding your purpose.
SOME IMPORTANT NOTES FROM THE BOOK
“Without God, life has no purpose, and without purpose, life has no meaning. Without meaning, life has no significance or hope.”
1. A purpose driven life is defined as a life lived according to our deepest values. It calls for us to live consciously aware of what we believe. And then act accordingly.
2. Rick Warren defines purpose as a sense of destiny that calls us to lead a specific life. It is the kind of calling that leads us to want to leave behind something significant at death. This sense of calling can be felt by anyone no matter where they are starting from. It may be something big or small but it needs to motivate someone to act on it.
3. People who live lives without purpose tend to struggle with personal problems. They often suffer from loneliness, anxiety, depression, guilt, anger, fear, self doubt and frustration.
4. We cannot completely control everything that happens to us, but we can choose what we think about and how we react to events. Our thoughts and emotions affect our actions. So when we choose to focus on things that bring us joy, we feel better about ourselves. When we dwell on our failures and mistakes, it makes us feel worse.
5. One of the best ways to develop a strong and positive attitude is to spend time thinking about what really matters to us. Consider the things that give you pleasure — spending time with friends and family, watching TV shows and movies, going to concerts and sporting events. Try to be aware of the things that give you happiness and satisfaction.
6. There is nothing wrong with having dreams. But people with empty hearts will never achieve lasting fulfillment. To be truly fulfilled you must have a clear understanding of your purpose and passion in this world and then devote yourself to it wholeheartedly.
7. No one wakes up in the morning saying “I wish I had a different job.” Yet most people would love to change jobs. When you work for someone else, you put aside your goals and aspirations until you retire or quit. However, when you start working for yourself, you begin to realize that your value is not determined by what others say about you. Rather, you define your worth based on what you accomplish and who you help along the way.
8. Rick Warren suggests a three step plan to finding purpose in life: First, ask God to help you discover your purpose; second, pursue that purpose relentlessly; third, live for others as if your life depended on it.
