By the end of the 12 sessions you should be able to:

1. Have an understanding of what Purpose is (and how it applies to your life).

3. Discover your Purpose and begin the process of applying it to your personal life.
   
4. Gain clarity and focus about what now matters most in your life by establishing core wants and priorities in your seven life 'accounts' eg. Health and Fitness, Family, Spiritual, Social, Financial, Intellectual, and Vocational.
   
5. Establish appropriate strategies to deal with issues which may hinder or threaten your success in various life 'accounts'.
   
6. Begin to consider the questions of Why am I here? Where am I headed? How will I live out my Purpose? What are the values I am going to live by?
   
7. Develop visions, missions and values for each of your seven life 'accounts'.
   
8. Understand how you are called to serve and make a difference in your different life settings.
   
9. Gain hope and direction for your future.
   
10. Have developed skills on which to build a positive, hope filled, purposeful life through intentional choice.

The On-Purpose® process is designed to help you discover your purpose in life - your reason for being, your life force, your spiritual DNA. You will get a good sense of what is meant by this from reading 'The On-Purpose Person', by Kevin W. McCarthy. This power packed book is amazing.Each time you pick it up or reread it, it is possible to gain another insight or gem you may not have noticed before.

Over the twelve sessions, you will be touching on various aspects of the On-Purpose® Coaching Cycle, which you will be able to build on with your buddy, companion, or support group or work on for yourself. Many people take time out to review their journey as On-Purpose Persons once a year and celebrate their progress and successes and update their goals, plans, desires and so on, always within the context of Purpose and alignment.

The material in your folder is extensive so you can refer back to it on an on-going basis. This is intentional as you will not remember everything from twelve Coaching Sessions. The On-Purpose® Coaching Framework is built on the acronym PURPOSE.

P - Personal Story

U - Understanding Self

R - Reviewing My Life
