THE BEST TIME TO DEFINE YOUR SUCCESS IS NOW
This may be one of the shortest and most important posts that I write on your behalf.
It’s time to define your success.
After all, defining your success is how you begin. So how do you determine what success looks like? How is a meaningful and focused goal conceived? HEAT MOMENTS.
I love what pastor Rick Warren wrote in The Purpose Driven Life book; “We don’t change or get focused when we see the light– we change and get focused when we feel the heat.”
Don’t overthink or procrastinate. Defining your win or what success looks like to you is how you begin.
Defining your success will provide new focus, energy, and purpose.
Goals give direction.
We get easily distracted. Without direction, we are running a race without a finish line.
Goals give inspiration.
I love those “before and after” pictures of people on renewed health crusades. We need some “after” pictures in our mind’s eye to inspire us. I need it. You need it too! Something that would make us want to say “YES! That’s what I want my life to look like and feel like– A SUCCESS. That’s my goal and I’m going for it!”
The bottomline: Defining your success is 100% crucial, and goals are the critical factor in the success journey. Defining your success is how you begin. Write down some new goals and tell someone!
Here’s to new successes and the best that’s yet to come!
