Do you remember Dungeons & Dragons? Good chance you played it as a kid, or your kids are playing it now on their computers. For those of you who don't know this game, it's quite different from modern games like online poker or Call of Duty. I'll give you the rundown: You are role-playing a character in a wonderful and amazing world, and your goal is to explore and do things to gain experience points, so that you can move to the next level of the game.

Life is a little bit like that. For those of you who forgot, I'll give you the rundown: You are role-playing a character in a wonderful and amazing world, and your goal is to explore and do things to gain experience points, so that you can move to the next level of the game. Remember that our body, job, parents, spouse, car, kids - are all there to support us in becoming who we are. Are all there to present us with opportunities to make the choices that define us.

But back to the game... Some people play it safe. They don't go too far into the forest or too deep into a cave. They only deal with the weaker enemies, the small goblins and the familiar demons (which are easy to beat) and they build their experience slowly and surely over time. For others this way is not fast enough, not exciting enough, not dangerous enough. Not enough period. So they wonder far and deep and actively seek their next quest. Their eyes are constantly looking for clues and signs that would point them towards the farther, more complicated places of the world. Places where it is not only common but sometimes inevitable for them to meet challenges just as strong as they are. Where there is real doubt about the outcome of the fight. We know who they are, and we secretly sometimes want to be like them, don't we?

I get it, you may say. I get that in a game you're supposed to look for the excitement, to chase adventure and to question boundaries. After all, isn't that what games are for? To break, even for a little while, the monotony and boredom of life? Otherwise, how would you justify the $49.95 you paid for it? But why would you do that in life? Nobody is handing experiences points and there are no reward programs where experience points can be redeemed for airfare, small appliances or good karma.

So why would somebody take that risk in real life, and travel far and deep to actively look for quests and chase adventures? Why would someone dare to question boundaries? Why should we give up our comfortable, relaxing, convenient and familiar lives, and - on top of all the curveballs life throws at us anyway - go "looking for trouble"?

Well, let me tell you why: We're all here to do what we're all here to do.  Or in other words, we're here to serve our purpose, as simple as that. We volunteered to come down here to do a job. and not just any job - the one that WE chose to be the most important and relevant and rewarding for ourselves and the world.

Now, there are two kinds of people - ones that are servings their purpose and  ones that are not.

If you've already figured out what your purpose is, chances are you're already serving it. And even if you know what it is and you're not, you don't need me to tell you that what happens now. At this point you've already figured it out and it is only a matter of time before you succeed in rearranging your life to make sure your purpose is served and you're the one serving it.

For those of you who don't serve their purpose because they haven't found out yet what it is - this is now your last chance. Be warned that if you wish to remain ignorant stop reading now. I am telling you that I am about to tell you what your purpose is, and then you will have no more excuses and you will be forced to take action. This is your last chance.

And before you go on - know that all I'm offering you is the truth. Nothing more.

OK, here it is:

Your purpose is to figure out what your purpose is and then serve it.

Simple, ha?

Let me say it again: Your purpose is to figure out what your purpose is and then serve it.

So, if you've figured out what your purpose is, you know what you have to do. And if you haven't, NOW you know what to do as well.

Sorry, but I warned you.

But - here are the good news: your purpose is not necessarily big and scary. For sure your purpose is NOT impossible for you or bigger than who you are right now. Your purpose is what you came here to do. And just like all tools are designed and shaped to fulfill their purpose, so were you. All of you have to do is simply be you. Be YOU. The real you.

Sometimes your purpose in life is to be like Bono, Gandhi or Albert Einstein.

And sometimes your purpose in life is to be like Bono's, Gandhi's or Albert Einstein's 4th grade teacher - nobody would remember your name or even know you existed, but YOU would know that just by touching somebody else's life you have made it possible for the world to receive some of the most significant and amazing gifts.

Sometimes your purpose in life is to send emails to people and hope they read them.

Be you. It's that simple.
