Life Purpose Test
This self-test will give you a clear idea of how much you
already understand about your life purpose as a social change agent and what capacities you have
to help you in this process. It will pinpoint the exploring you still need to do
and the capacities you need to develop. This clarifies what you can get
from Change Agent Coaching and our classes and workshops.
This test is not meant to be scored or graded. You will learn
the most by your own answers to each question than by any cumulative score.
