• You derive great fulfilment from doing things that give your life meaning and purpose.

• You could be focused on one or many different things that provide purpose.

• How you spend your time, your decisions and your future plans are all aligned to your sense of mission and purpose in life.

Strength Story: Addison

Mission, Quietly Woven

For Addison, mission isn’t a single path — it’s the ongoing act of aligning work with what excites and fulfills her. She’s learned that meaning can grow from small, intentional choices, and that passion and profession don’t have to compete. By staying curious and open, she continues to build a life where purpose is integrated into every step.
