  5. PURE as a definition ofmeaning in life • Meaning in life can be operationally defined in terms of PURE, which stands for: • Purpose • Understanding • Responsibility • Enjoyment

  6. Purpose Involves: • Clarifying our life direction and core values. • Organizing our activities. • Deliberating your daily plans. • Pursuing one’s calling and mission in life with passion and commitment.

  7. Understanding Involves: • Full awareness of the situation and the consequences of one`s actions. • Knowing right from wrong. • Understanding the legal/ethical principles in decision making. • Self-knowledge of our strengths and weaknesses. • Understanding/knowing the world we live in. • Achieving a sense of coherence.

  8. Responsibility Involves: • Taking full responsibility of our own life. • Assuming responsibility for our decisions and actions. • Holding ourselves accountable. • Being a moral agent.

  9. Enjoyment/Evaluation • The natural outcome of leading a purposeful and responsible life. • But a positive outcome is not inevitable. • Sometimes, the personal costs of being responsible can be too high. • This stage involves reflection and sometimes re-evaluation of PURE.

  10. Advantages of PURE • Not achieving happiness at the expense of others. • Developing your full potential without harming others. • Leading a life that is good emotionally, intellectually, relationally, and morally.

  11. The PURE Test • The PURE test provides an operational definition of meaning in life. • P, U, R, E are interdependent components but their interdependence is only partial. • Interestingly, it is possible to score high on PERMA but low on PURE. • The happy rioter vs. the sad hero.
