I read a real cool story today, retold by Keith Yamashita and Sandra Spataro, that got me thinking about our 40 days of purpose- In June 1962, Alcatraz prisoners Frank Morris and brothers John and Clarence Anglin made a break for it. Although serious doubts exist about the success of the escape, the jailbreak remains the only "unresolved" case in the history of The Rock. The escape plan involved handmade drills, guard uniforms, and imitation human heads to deter nighttime guards. The men took to the water using raincoats as crude life vests and a makeshift raft. The police investigation turned up all the tools of the escape, but no sign of these three men.
You might be thinking how this might relate to purpose –
1.} Desperate times may require desperate measures, don't wait for a crisis.
2.} Be methodical. Be sequential. Every gain is a step in the right direction.
3.} Stay out of jail, creating purpose is about finding what's true and magnifying it, not making up a whole new story.
