What is Purpose?

Why do we feel the need to give our life a purpose? Let us first define "purpose";
a Purpose is "a result, end, goal, mean, aim, or action intentionally undertaken".
When we live with purpose in mind, then everything we do become a means to an end. With this mind, how do you think this sense of purpose changes our ability to be present within this moment? Can you fully focus on what is here without holding onto where you think you need to go? The present is ever changing, your defining purpose is not. Most people are fed the idea that if you know your purpose in this world, life will have meaning and you will find fulfillment. My question is, why aren't you finding your fulfillment without needing a purpose? Can you find fulfillment Now, without any goal, or aim, or action? Can you find it right here, right now? That is the understanding I'm talking about.
