I know that personal mission statements change as a person’s values, experiences, and life changes, but I have finally created a mission that means something to me at this point in my life. I just needed to refine the statement that I created six months ago by adding a few other things that I value in my life.
My purpose of each day for the rest of my life is to dedicate myself to a life of continuous scholarly and worldly pursuits, development of new skills, improvement of ethical character, development of physical wellness and abilities, and honoring my family, friends, and eternal beloved with love, compassion, and support.
My next step is to repeat this mission to myself like the pledge of allegiance as a continuous reminder.

I did a little research on creating mission statements and sought out some examples. This mission statement will specifically as a life mission rather than career related. I will later develop a career related mission statement for portfolio purposes.
It was easier to formulate my mission after seeing a list of values that could easily be implemented into my statement. So far my statement is as follows:
My purpose of each day for the rest of my life is to dedicate myself to a life of scholarly pursuit, continuous improvement of ethical character, development of physical wellness and abilities, and honoring my family and eternal beloved with love, compassion, and support.
It doesn’t sound right quite yet but for me it is a good start and is still very inspirational to the ideas that I hold dear.
