But in the midst of all this angst, we’re also suffering from fundamental misconceptions about purpose. The first misconception is that purpose is a thing you find. The purpose is a thing you build, not a thing you find. And most of us will have multiple sources of purpose in our lives — in our work, family, or community, for instance. Just as we all find meaning in multiple places, the sources of that meaning can and do change over time.
