Use your Personal Legend worksheet to craft a personal MISSION STATEMENT for your first Blog Post along with an explanation of your MISSION STATEMENT.
Guidelines:
1. Your mission statement should be 1-3 sentences. Short. Sweet. Distilled.
2. Your explanation should be 7 sentence minimum and explain why this is your mission statement, how you chose this to be your mission statement, and expand upon and explain anything that we might not understand completely.

7 Questions To Ask Yourself To Find Your Mission Statement
- What is the problem you are seeing in the world?
- What are you intending to fix?
- Why are you doing what you are doing? And why is that? And why is that? (I usually find that by asking 3 “whys” or more, I can find the real reason for something.)
- What in your past experience makes you passionate about this?
- What would the best version of yourself look like?
- How are you different from other people who are doing similar things?
- Is your mission sufficiently narrow enough to be differentiate it from others?
