| Synopsis: |
This work is featured now on audio - the benefits of having a cause to one's life. William Damon describes the personal and spiritual benefits of dedicating one's life to a cause or many causes. He explains that these causes may be found in the day-to-day fabric of ordinary existence. We may discover a calling at work and, in doing so, inspire others to find the deeper meaning in their own work. Noble purpose can be found in our families, friendships, communities, in the natural world, the cosmos or through our faith. Damon defines the qualities that transform purpose into noble purpose. He identifies nine principles that can facilitate the quest for purpose and poses questions we may ask ourselves in order to ensure that the purpose we have identified is indeed a noble one. Through the inspiring examples described in this book, readers can understand the psychological and spiritual benefits of purpose - providing joy in good times and resilience in adversity. The author points out that leading a life of noble purpose is a truer path to happiness than the pursuit of happiness for it's own sake. |
