Have you ever considered why success is important to you and how you’d define it?
Some people are the same 24/7, others display distinctly different personalities or focus, at work with co-workers and clients vs. at home with families and friends.
In sales, life and business tend to get blended so it’s extra important that you stay true to who you truly are to create the success you desire long-term.
What that success will look like is a topic worth musing about especially what happens after you have created that. In other words, what will the success you desire create for you?
Is it Freedom? Happiness? Power?… What will you create with your success?
Let’s say you’re making $1M+/year, what would your day look like? Where would you live? What would you be wearing, driving? Who would be there with you? What would you want to do once you have all the stuff that you’ve wanted, what would you like to experience next? Who or what would you invest your time and money in?
Take some time to ponder this, and if you have your CliftonStrengths® All 34 Report you’ll be able to identify some underlying needs that drive you.
Create a list of priorities related to your needs and summarize it with a simple statement. It could be something like “My success statement: Making $1 million, or more, a year will provide me the freedom to create whatever I desire on my timeline and connect more people to the same just for fun”. Your turn:
Your definition of success
When you have achieved this success you will be able to:

Your success statement is:
Making $________ will ________ me ________ and ________ to ________.
