How Societal Norms Limit Your Freedom of Self-Inquiry
Life can often feel like you don't have a say in why you're here. You spend many years in school then join the workforce and by the time you know it, you feel as if you've lost your sense of purpose. Going through these societal norms tends to limit people but we all have the freedom to dig deep and perform a thought-provoking self-inquiry about our purpose.
Steven encourages listeners to start small when questioning their purpose. For example, instead of going grocery shopping because it's an ingrained part of your routine, ask yourself why you're really doing it. You'll look at the bigger picture and remember that this task sustains you and keeps you healthy.
Enhance Your Mind, Body, and Spirit by Asking, "Why Am I Here?"
Many people avoid asking themselves why they're here and what their purpose is because addressing the reality can be difficult. As scary as it can be to get started with self-reflection, you can work your way up to finding your authentic self. Begin by asking a simple question like, "Where am I?" and you'll soon open your mind to various answers, including:
Inside a specific room
At your home or office
In a town or city
In a state, country, or continent
Doing a practice like this expands your thought process so you can explore more philosophical questions.
Tips for Your Self-Inquiry
Focusing on your personal goals, dreams, and purpose can be intimidating. Steven notes it helps to think of your role models and what you admire about them to form your own reason for being here. In addition, writing down some of the most meaningful moments in your life will aid the process.

The G.R.I.P. Method
G.R.I.P. stands for "Greatness Requires Intention & Purpose." People who have followed this method can attest to the veracity of the title. This strategy helps people identify their goals and execute them with clear intentions through planning, purpose, and integrity.
It is a roadmap that guides you through struggles and hardships, with the final destination being the life you want to lead or the changes you wish to make. The G.R.I.P. Method offers a plan to go from fear to freedom and helps you break away from where past attempts did not work.
