10. Something to Live For: Lessons from the Science of Purpose

Sources of purpose are more universal than we might think.

Psychology Today Marianna Pogosyan Ph.D.

Key points

  • Purpose in life is linked to physical and mental health benefits.

  • A recent study identified 16 sources of purpose, examining how each predicts the three pillars of a good life.

  • Across four cultures, people were similar in how they endorsed these sources of purpose.

In one of Kurt Vonnegut’s stories, God leaves it to humans to think of a purpose for everything, including "all this." Purpose gives us something to live for. It also provides the foundation to pursue that something. In our day-to-day lives, in ways big and small, we experience the truth of what philosophers have long posited: the why leads us to the how.

In psychology, purpose is defined as “a central, self-organizing life aim that organizes and stimulates goals, manages behaviors, and provides a sense of meaning.” When our lives are guided by an overarching sense of purpose, we reap a wealth of benefits for our physical and mental health – from greater life satisfaction to a slower cognitive decline.

What are some of the common places where humans find their purpose?

As a poignant reminder of our shared humanity, we tend to derive purpose from similar sources despite the remarkable diversity of our lives.

The Pillars of a Good Life

A recent study explored the various sources from which humans find purpose and then mapped them onto the three fundamental pillars of a good life: happiness, meaning, psychological richness. The authors sought to understand how having different kinds of purpose predicted these three dimensions of a good life. From an initial pool of over 2000 open-ended responses from US participants, Mask et al. (2025) identified 16 common sources of purpose in life.
