What Does A Purpose-Driven Business Mean To You?
In my experience, nothing can ever come close to the joy and bliss you feel when you know that you are fulfilling your purpose and doing your creator’s work which is also your soul’s calling that you were built for and came here on this earth to do.
One way to accomplish that is by starting a purpose-driven business and doing the work you love. What does purpose-driven business mean to you?
It is a business that you start, that is aligned with your life purpose, in which you use your unique gifts, natural talents, experiences, and skills.
This business is started for the sole purpose of adding value and giving your customers transformational results and experiences by creating products and services that serve them, solve problems, and better their lives.
Purpose-driven businesses are often more successful than any of the other types of businesses you could start. Why are purpose-driven businesses often more successful? They are more successful because they avoid certain things. Let’s find out what that is next.
10 Things Purpose-driven Businesses Avoid
Purpose-driven businesses are more fulfilling and successful because they avoid doing the following 10 things.
Never Compromise Their Values
They value their character and integrity and never compromise on their values and ethics for a short-term gain. They are very well aware of their top values which they use as a filter to confidently make every decision that they make in their business.
Never Ignore The Impact Of Overworking On Family
They value their time and are well aware and never ignore the impact that the hours that they overwork on their business would have on their family.
They always make sure that they schedule time with their family first like vacations and experiences in their schedule before adding anything else.
They Never Prioritize Profit Over Purpose
They never prioritize profit over purpose because profit at the expense of the purpose is not for them. It is not the right way to earn money and so they will never do something just to get money from other people.
They are inspired to create products and services that transform and better people’s lives and will never just do something just for money.
Money flows to them abundantly as a byproduct because they are doing purposeful work, serving and adding value to people’s lives and into the market.
Never Overwork
They never overwork, create, and follow healthy boundaries because they are well aware of the fact that they are only here temporarily as a soul in this body.
They know that once their body and health is compromised they will not be able to serve their customers in the way they want to and fulfill their purpose. They always make sure that they set healthy boundaries, listen to their body, and never overwork.
Never Lack Transparency
They never lack transparency or authenticity. They always make sure that their team and customers know what their business’s mission and purpose is.
They are here to better the world and transform people’s lives. They are always very authentic to the purpose, mission, and vision that they have for their company.
Never Ignore Community Needs
They never ignore the community’s needs and so they always remain approachable and open to hearing from their team and customers so that they can improve, innovate and better their products, and services and impact their customer’s and team members lives positively.
Never Neglect Personal Growth
They never neglect their personal growth because they know that the more they learn, and evolve the better leaders they can be and the more they can better people’s lives and serve them in a bigger and better way.
They are always learning and investing in their personal growth because it’s important for them to constantly grow, teach, and serve.
Never Disregard Environment
They never disregard the environmental impact of their business. No matter what they do they are aware of the social and environmental impact of their business on the earth.
They also make sure that their products and services are good for the environment and the earth by constantly evaluating and checking their practices, and processes.
They want to live this Earth in a better place in a better way for their children and for the multiple generations that are going to come after them so they are ethical in all their business practices.
Never Fail To Adapt And Innovate
They never fail to adapt and innovate if that means that they will be able to serve their customers in a better way and transform their customer’s and team’s lives.
They always remain open to hearing from their customers and teams as to how they can better serve them better.
Never Lose Sight Of The Purpose
They never lose sight of their purpose and they make sure that the people who work for them know their values, mission, purpose, and vision and that everybody is in alignment with that and everybody’s working towards that.
They make sure that each person who works for them knows how important their role is to the fulfillment of the purpose, mission, and vision of their business.
