Personal Success: What is Success?
Posted by: | Comments
Recently I was asked by a friend if a mutual acquaintence of ours was successful.
My response: What’s your definition of success?
In this particular case, I knew what my friend was asking… Does he make a lot of money? The answer to that question is yes. However, I would hardly consider this person “successful”.
The person has continual marital problems due to his unwillingness to compromise, continual family problems because of his unwillingness to keep from being selfish and has very few friends because he is so unhappy to be around.
In his case, he has put money at the forefront of his personal success, but at the expense of alienating everyone around him.
Personally, I would not consider this success. At the same time, I’m not him and my opinion doesn’t really matter.
The same holds true for you.
How do you define success?
Is it being a good mother or father?
Being wealthy?
Being a good friend?
Being great at your job?
If you can’t define what success means to you, then how will you know if and when you are successful?
Whatever it is, the way that you define success will determine how you handle the daily decisions in your life.
What I’d like for you to remember as you determine your own definition of success is that you can have more than just one version of success.
For instance, being wealthy doesn’t mean that you can’t be a good mother or father. Wanting to be a good mother or father doesn’t mean that you can’t want to have a successful career. These desires are not mutually exclusive.
You can have as much success in as many areas as you choose to have. The key is defining your own success and prioritizing your life so that you keep first things first. Success in one area should never come at the expense of success in a higher priority area. But again, if you don’t establish you priorities and if you don’t define success, you will never know where you are going.
If you don’t already have it figured out, today would be a great day to start. Define your priorities in life, then explain in great detail what “success” would mean to you in each of these categories. And lastly, write it all down and review it daily.
You were put here for a purpose, you are greater than you realize and your future will be filled with unlimited opportunities when you decide to become unstoppable.

Personal Success: Success is Always the Answer

Brian Tracy - Author, Motivational Speaker and Businessman
Whatever it is that you may be facing, regardless of how insurmountable the odds may be stacked against you, success is always the answer.
The higher you climb on the ladder of success, the more challenges you will face. But regardless of what is standing in your way, you must always find a way to prevail.
In sports, in school, in business, even in your finances, the problems will continue to come at you. Brian Tracy describes problems as “waves in the ocean.” As soon as you make it through one obstacle, the next one is already on the way at you.
No matter how big the waves get, finding a way to win is always the solution.
You were put here for a purpose, you are greater than you realize and your future will be filled with unlimited opportunities when you decide to become unstoppable.
Be Unstoppable!

Personal Success: Now Is The Time!
Posted by: | CommentsNow Is The Time!
Success is available to you right where you are, right this very second. Through all of my journeys through sports, professional school and business, I can tell you that anyone can be successful. The real reason that most people never become successful is that they have never come to expect it. People will talk about “someday”, as if they are going to wake up randomly on one unsuspecting day and be at the top of their field.
Success doesn’t work that way. If you really want to be in the top 1% in all that you do, it’s as simple as making the decision right now to get there. Success is available to all of us every moment we’re alive. Success is in the decisions we make. It’s in our priorities. It’s in our attitude. It’s completely under our control.
The biggest mistake that you could ever make is to think that someone else is responsible for your success. Your boss, your parents, your spouse, your friends, the government…. NONE of them are responsible for your success. Only YOU are responsible for your own success in life.
Stop putting off until tomorrow what you could do right now to become successful. No one else is going to make the decision for you, and no one else will back up that decision with actions for you. YOU are the only one that can choose to be the best. You’re as good right now as you need to be to start your journey to the top 1% in your field, so choose to be your best from this moment on.
From the moment you make the decision, you will suddenly start to see potential where you once saw only problems. Your vision for the future will be expanded.
Follow the decision to become your best with commitment and you will soon make all of your possibilities a reality!
Only when you are fully committed to becoming successful will you truly become Unstoppable! And that’s what I want for you… Unstoppable Success!
You were put here for a purpose, you are greater than you realize and your future will be filled with unlimited opportunities when you decide to become unstoppable.
Be Unstoppable!
