Making Sense of Purpose: Gain Clarity, Build Momentum, and Find Your "Kiran" (n. ray of light)

Before you can make sense of your purpose, you have to make sense of yourself.

That's the work most purpose books skip. This one starts there.

Making Sense of Purpose makes you three promises:
• You will know yourself better than ever before.
• You will know yourself better than anyone else ever will.
• You will move forward with meaning and momentum.

It's a practical guide for anyone navigating transition, asking better questions, or trying to reconnect with what matters. Students. Founders. Parents. Leaders. People who've checked every box and still feel off.

Suneet Bhatt teaches purpose at Rutgers University and has used this framework with thousands of people, from boardrooms to classrooms.

Built on a three-step roadmap: Gain Clarity. Build Momentum. Find Your "Kiran" (Sanskrit for ray of light). Across 18 chapters, each one pairs a guided prompt with the research behind it, a real story from someone who's done the work, a song that captures the heart of the chapter, and a moment of light to lock in what you've learned.

Whether you're at a career pivot, a personal reinvention, or simply ready to live more honestly, Making Sense of Purpose meets you where you are.

The choices that follow feel more yours because you built them from the inside out.
