‘How Big is Life,’ created by Anna Vital for Funders and Founders, takes a look at the purpose of life and how much influence a single person can have on the world around them.
As the infographic states, “life is a big show” whereupon we are constantly meeting new people, many of which we consider to be friends with, or at least friendly enough to hang out with at a social setting. Dunbar’s Number dictates that most people have meaningful relationships with at least 150 people, often meeting them through new job ventures, school or startup projects.
Thus, whenever we risk starting something new and entrepreneurial, we can realistically reach a vast number of people, fulfilling one purpose of life.
