100% agree with @DxRxEdu and @rabihmgeha--a #missionstatement is essential to ANYONE who wants to be #missiondriven.
I often ask: "What's the WHAT?" Like, WHAT's the purpose or the point of anything I'm doing--or the impact of it?
Your #missionstatement defines that.
Yup. https://twitter.com/DxRxEdu/status/1347330629084577792

The WHAT helps me to decide:
What to work on
What to decline
Where to go
Where not to go
What to write
What impact I wish to have
What & who gets my time and energy
Aspirations & goals
It also helps me to push past my #impostersyndrome & keep going when I fail or fall short.

Here's my #missionstatement:
"To honor patients, learners, and the community through respectful and psychologically safe clinical and learning environments that celebrate and elevate diversity, health equity, and growth mindsets."
This is my WHAT.

There's a lot you can read on how to create a #missionstatement. But here's a helpful tip to get you started:
Find an anchor verb and build around it.
Mine is "HONOR."
Another good pro-tip: Stay as close to 25 words or less as possible (although mine is 26 words.
)

So. . .do you have a personal #missionstatement? Or does your old one need a revision? Let's cook one up!
Here's your ingredients to include (adapted from @Forbes):
What do I do (or aspire to do)?
How do I do it?
Whom do I do it for?
What value am I bringing?
And then. . .

Pick your anchor verb then try as hard as you can to get it to 25 (or 26) words or less.
Post it in places where you can see it so that it serves as your North Star (to quote @rabihmgeha and @DxRxEdu.)
Now--here's an example:
An invitation comes my way. Hmmm. What to do?

After determining if I have time or want to do it, next I reconcile the ask with my mission statement.
"Does this opportunity align with my mission?"
Remember:
Stuff can align with your mission that you don't have time (or desire) to do. Be honest to protect your wellness.
