Finding Your Mission: The Key to a Fulfilled and Profitable Business
Welcome back to part five of the six-figure series! In this episode of The Consistency Queen, Elsa Morgan dives into the powerful connection between your vision (what you want to achieve) and your mission (who you want to serve). By defining your mission, you’ll create a business that not only generates income but also brings deep fulfillment.
The Difference Between Vision and Mission
Your vision is about your personal and business goals—the experiences you want, the impact you want to make, and the life you want to build.
Your mission, on the other hand, is about your purpose:
- Who are you here to serve?
- Why does your work matter?
- How will your business make a difference?
Why Knowing Your Mission is Crucial
When you align your mission with your business:
- Clarity Drives Action: Understanding your “why” helps you focus your efforts.
- Fulfillment Fuels Longevity: You’ll stay motivated when your work aligns with your purpose.
- Authenticity Attracts Clients: People are drawn to businesses with genuine missions.
Getting Clear on Your Mission
To define your mission, start with self-reflection. Elsa suggests:
- Ask Yourself Big Questions:
- What would you do if money wasn’t a factor?
- Who would you serve if you could help anyone?
- Audit Yourself:
- What do you believe about yourself and your ability to succeed?
- Why do you think and feel the way you do?
- Dig Into Your Story:
- What experiences have shaped who you are?
- How can your knowledge and journey serve others?

Aligning Your Mission With Your Business
Your mission should come from within—it’s bigger than you and ties to your deepest values. Elsa emphasizes that a meaningful mission leads to long-term fulfillment, which is key to sustaining your business:
- It’s not about short-term gains or trends.
- It’s about creating something you love that aligns with who you are.
- It’s about serving others authentically and effectively.
Your Next Steps: Define Your Mission
Here’s how to get started:
- Journal Your Thoughts: Write about your ideal business and who you’d love to help.
