Worksheet 6: Purpose Alignment Checks

Checking Your Business Growth Against Your Sun (Purpose)

Purpose of This Worksheet:
Your Sun is the purpose your business grows toward. But as you evolve, new ideas, products, or decisions can drift out of alignment. This worksheet is designed to pause and check: Is what you’re building still facing the sun?

This helps you:

  • Avoid building offers or systems that don’t feel right

  • Notice if strategy or structure has outgrown your deeper purpose

  • Reconnect to meaning and motivation — especially during growth, pivots, or challenges

Use this worksheet regularly as a reflection tool, or when launching something new.

Instructions (Step-by-Step):

Step 1: Define Your Sun

Step 3: Alignment Check Prompts
For your selected area, reflect on the following:

🟩 Does this help me fulfil my purpose — or just my short-term needs?
✎ Answer:

🟩 Is this rooted in my values — or in pressure to copy what “works”?
✎ Answer:

🟩 Does this give me energy — or subtly drain me?
✎ Answer:

🟩 Would I feel proud to share this with someone I deeply respect?
✎ Answer:

🟩 Does this support the people I truly want to help?
✎ Answer:

🟩 What’s the clearest way this connects to my Sun?
✎ Answer:

Step 4: If Misaligned... Now What?
Noticing misalignment isn’t a failure — it’s an opportunity to shift, simplify, or realign.

🟩 Prompt:
If anything here feels out of sync, what gentle change could you make today?
(e.g. tweak an offer, rewrite a message, change a boundary, delay a launch)

Optional Reflection:

  • Would your past self — the version of you that first felt this calling — feel excited about where you’re heading now?

  • What new possibilities would open if alignment came first?
