Objective of this Mental Strength Tip:
To help you understand and define what personal success is and what personal success is not.
Let’s Get Started:
Personal success is determined by you and only you! No other person on the face of this earth can tell you what success is or what it means. You are responsible to decide what success means to you — and to go after it with all you have.
There is a slight nuance, the mentally strong and peak performances define success a lot different from the average person.
Questions to Uncover Beliefs about Mental Strength Thinking:
- What does success mean to you?
- How important is success?
- Is your current definition of success helping you or hurting you?
Unsupportive Beliefs about Success
- Success equals money.
- Success is complicated.
- Success is elusive.
Mental Strength Beliefs about Success
- Success is simple.
- Success means something different to each person.
- Chasing success is fun if you love what you’re doing.
Outrageous Questions:
- How much have you bought into the average person’s definition of success?
- If your definition of personal success was more clearly defined would you be more successful?
- If you were more successful would you be happier?
Reflective Questions:
- What is the relationship between success, fulfillment and happiness?
- How successful are your five closest friends?
- Does your belief system help or hinder your success?
Mental Strength Coaching:
Personal Success means different things to different people. To some, personal success might mean becoming famous, a millionaire, or just owning a house. Others may think that personal success is just a way of life; like feeling good. For me, personal success is achieving the short, medium, and long-term goals I have set for myself.
Obviously, the only way one will know they are a “successful person” is if they have achieved some type of goal. I personally don’t think that just making a million dollars makes you a success, but someone else might.
Final Thought
I think that personal success is a balancing act of the areas of life: work, money, family, friends, and leisure. One should never give up any one area. However, overindulging in any one area can have severe impacts on the others. Having a balanced lifestyle is what success is all about. It ensures that you have variety in life. It will keep you motivated to learn new things about different parts of your life and ensure that you set new goals through out your life.
