Test: Does My Life Have Purpose?
Are you living your life on purpose? Do you know what your purpose in life is? Here's a free 2 minute test to rate your own sense of purpose.
You know when you’re living your life on purpose – it is the type of lifestyle that follows after first finding out how to live a pleasurable or happy life. When you’re living with purpose and meaning you get a rich sense of fulfillment that goes beyond sensory satisfaction or pleasant emotions. I have found that most people have a deep understanding of this subject and how they see themselves in relation to it – as if we were made that way.
When most people notice that their life lacks meaning or purpose they look to their outer circumstances first – job satisfaction or relationships or social life for purpose. And there can be success doing that. However, I would stress the importance of working on inner meaning first; those ‘how do I fit into the bigger picture’ questions. Or even asking God (in whatever way you define him/her), ‘how can I serve you’. Of course inner and outer purpose are very much linked but it is far easier to find outer purpose and meaning once inner purpose and meaning are found.

A very useful little test - I’d be interested to know what my results would have been 3 years ago, before I found my faith - they would have been much lower I’m sure.
Though I understand some people may scoff when I say that Christianity has changed my life for the better.
I found 2 min testfor finding purpose really interesting but has left me realising that I need to identify my inner purpose asnd havent a clue how to go about that!
OK so the test proved what I already know, that I feel I have no purpose. Now what am I supposed to do about it?!
Help! My scores were 3’s and 4’s
What times/days does the evening course take place on.
Help! xj
good test - made me really think as I was doing it, rather than focussing on the results at the end - helped me fous on which bits are ‘missing’ - thank you!
My life lacks everything! I scored 1/10 in all 3 areas. I am also wondering what I do with this information now…Thanks, though.
This showed me what I knew- my life is rubbish at the moment, but how do I change it?
What can I do about it?
Thanks - helpful words - I have always known Jesus as my friend - and always believe that He has a plan for me, (like everyone else) - but, no matter how often I pray or “just get on with my life “trusting all will be revealed in His time - nothing changes - I know God has not forgotten me - but sometimes,I feel like I have been waiting for ages and ages.
Never mind, guess my time will come - some day!
Thanks
So I still don’t know my purpose. Will I ever? Is my purpose simply just to be? Is my purpose that I don’t know my purpose and I’m here for other people’s purpose? i believe in jesus christ and know i’m going to heaven, but what do I do now? It would be nice to figure this out.
No surprises,knowing that I need to find inner self/purpose and here,obviously,as have no idea how to really do/be/pursue it!
