• The message would be that the purpose of life is not to eat and drink, watch television and so on. Consuming is not the aim of life. Earning as much money as one can is not the real purpose of life. There is a superior entity, a divinity, le divin as we say in French that is worth thinking about, as are our feelings of wholeness, respect and love, if we can. A society in which these feelings are widespread would be more reasonable than the society the West presently lives in.

• One great question underlies our experience, whether we think about
  it or not: what is the purpose of life? From the moment of birth
  every human being wants happiness and does not want suffering.
  Neither social conditioning nor education nor ideology affects this.
  >From the very core of our being, we simply desire contentment.
  Therefore, it is important to discover what will bring about the
  greatest degree of happiness.

• Where there is life, there is hope. Where there are hopes, there are dreams. Where there are vivid dreams repeated, they become goals. Goals become the action plans and game plans that winners dwell on in intricate detail, knowing that achievement is almost automatic when the goal becomes an inner commitment. The response to the challenges of life - purpose - is the healing balm that enables each of us to face up to adversity and strife.

  Denis Waitley
