How does one counter a lack of purpose or belief in what you are doing.  It is said that perhaps the best way, is to undertake a quest, to give your life a sense of purpose and to find a greater cause in the pursuit of happiness.  Even  a failure in a quest may be more helpful than is first thought, because it gives perspective and information about the right path to ultimately take. A quest could help us out of daily tedium, it may help to make us more empowered, or confident, or self sufficient.  Even a small victory in a quest, may help us to start wondering what else we could achieve.  We need to be careful though, that a single quest, is not the answer, because it may be that at the end of the quest, we feel a little sad and down that it is over, so unless we have another quest in the wings, it may leave us incomplete.  So as you embark on a quest, make sure that you start thinking about the next thing in the process of life and where you would like the next quest to take you.This way you will always have a sense of purpose in your life.  Take on a new challenge with the idea of breaking into something new, don't be grandiose in your idea to impress, but look for small and measurable results.  Don't just launch into a quest without having spent time thinking it through, considering the consequences and bouncing the idea off the right people.  As you journey through your quest, accumulate experience and make use of every opportunity.  Enjoy the experience of enlightenment and do not rely on others to fulfil your quest - you make it happen and those that support you, will remain in your life to join on the next and the next and the next quest.
