The search for the purpose of life has puzzled people for
thousands of years. That's because we typically begin at the
wrong starting point--ourselves. We ask self-centered questions
like What do I want to be? What should I do with my life?
What are My goals, MY ambitions, MY dreams for MY future?

But focusing on ourselves will never reveal our life's purpose. The Bible says, "It is God who directs the lives of his creatures. Everyone's life is in his power." (Job 12:10)

because one single reason EGOISM. Egoism is the culture of the self. Some people think that they are the center of the universe. They don't consider that we are like a grain of sand in miles over miles of desert.

without losing their composure

it is a shame cause there is a lot to discuss
