Until you can define your own version of success, you will continually chase other people’s versions!

Until you can π™™π™šπ™›π™žπ™£π™š your own β€œversion of success” you will continually find yourself competing with other people’s versions.

 

But … What they want and where they are heading might not be the same for you and, comparing yourself to someone else’s timeline will only make you feel inadequate.

 

It’s OK if your path is different because:

 

YOU are unique, just like your own vision, desires, wants and needs.

 

AND

 

It’s OK if your path is slower, steeper, or bumpier because:

 

YOUR circumstances, responsibilities, and priorities are specific just to you.

 

If you are not clear on what β€œsuccess” means to you, then chasing someone else’s version (or no version at all), will only distract and disappoint you!

 

These are just some of the things I help my clients unpack because all too often they feel pressured by other people’s versions (spouse / parents / strangers), when in fact, it doesn’t realistically align with the life they are trying to create.

 

So ... together I help them to know and understand what it looks like for then so that, they can you take the π’“π’Šπ’ˆπ’‰π’• π’‚π’„π’•π’Šπ’π’ and, have a π’Žπ’†π’‚π’”π’–π’“π’†π’‡π’π’“ π’‰π’π’˜ π’•π’‰π’†π’š 𝒂𝒓𝒆 π’ˆπ’π’Šπ’π’ˆ.

 

To some people, success means financial wealth, a big home and expensive things, but to someone like me, success means something completely different.

Success to me means:

Success to me is:
* Having healthy relationships
* When my family are happy, healthy and connected.
* Having a good support network
* Doing the things that I enjoy
* Taking action and accomplishing goals
* Enjoying the work I do and, being financially rewarded for it in a way that, allows me to make choices about when and how I spend my money, my time and with who.
* Not feeling as though I’m pulled and pushed in too many directions.
When one of these things is not how I am currently experiencing it, then that right there becomes the focus!!
I have an awesome tool that I have created called "the holistic life compass". It's a simple yet powerful way of taking a birds eye view of your life, giving you the opportunity to quickly identify any areas for improvement. Let me know if you want it.
