Why am I alive? What is the meaning of life? In a Counseling or Coaching process, we often talk about what is the person’s personal “mission and purpose statement” – this is a statement of the core value(s) that is the foundation of who a person is and is a description of what drives them every day. This is the point of origin that guides priorities, decisions, behaviors, and puts into motion specific goals and planned actions toward the fulfillment of a mission and purpose in life. This question wherever possible should include spirituality questions – what the person believes about life, death, and any existence beyond life here. Does the person believe in a higher power beyond themselves? This question ultimately addresses a Faith in something, and it is an important area of exploration in a counseling and coaching process http://emapdrschulz.com
