How about “make the world a better place?”
2 comments

"Make the world a better place" is an primary element of Ikigai: https://www.mindtools.com/blog/whats-your-ikigai/

but, not the only one.

100%. Very Elon Musk BUT even Elon himself had looked after his own and made his own millions before trying to tackle that.
Why does making the world a better place make you think of Elon? I think of something much smaller scale. Helping my community, elders, people around me. Something at a much smaller scale where I get 1-1 human interaction out of it.

My passion is in fitness. I want to be active in my 60-80s (weight lifting / marathon running shape). I ultimately want to help others do the same and lead a better quality of life through their old age.
