Who are you? Really think about that. Who are you?
What is your purpose in this life?
A personal mission statement is your statement to yourself and the world that conveys what your life is about. Countries have constitutions, buildings have blueprints, and you need a mission statement.
It can be whatever you want. A vision for the future, a way of being, things you want to do, a sentence or a whole book. What matters is that it is important to you and helps you focus on whats important.
This is what I have been doing in school in the past little bit and I thought I'd share mine:
I am an Entrepreneur. Innovation is my friend. The status quo is my enemy. My life is dedicated to providing value to myself, others and God by finding better or new ways to do things. Time is my currency, not to be wasted on trivial things, but on things that will last all my life and even beyond it. Change is my trusted old advisor, helping me overcome my problems by not doing the same mistake. I will not trust others to do things for me but I wont appear at the battlefield alone. By the time I am old, and have achieved the dreams I have fought for, I will help the young warriors blaze their own path as they tread toward their north star.
It is a bit Fastlane bias, but I think it translates pretty well into the other areas of my life.
Also, although its not written by me, I love this Life Manifesto and have it hanging in my room:
I Am An Entrepreneur
