The Truth About Real Success
By Melanie Benson Strick | December 28th, 2009Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you are working you are not getting where you want to be fast enough?
It’s a gut-wrenching, mind-bending situation to be in. You try EVERYTHING you can think of, investing thousands of dollars in products, marketing strategies, fancy social media techniques, and nothing…it’s not working.
Why? Because you are NOT in alignment with your truth.
Success is not what most people think it is. It’s not what anyone else determines for you by following THEIR cookie-cutter approach. It’s not about achieving “millionaire” status (although it’s very alluring to think so). And it’s not about what people think about you.
Success is about spending every day being in alignment with your truth. It’s about…
- Deciding to be real no matter what
- Spending your days do what’s important
- Standing for what you value most
- Having the freedom to spend your days how you want
- Being happy, fulfilled and peaceful
The world around you knows when you are disconnected from your truth…whether you consciously realize it or not. For those who have a business based on your service, you can not afford to be disconnected from your truth. Yet more than 75% of entrepreneurs have no idea what their truth is. They pursue other people’s dreams at the expense of their own, completely losing sight of who they are to create another entrepreneur’s dream.
Tackling being “out of alignment” is crucial to taking your business to new levels of success. Here are three of the alignment areas that you must explore (we go through this process in the Fast Track to a Lifestyle Business program too.)
• Mindset: Is our thinking, beliefs and attitude aligned with the outcomes we want from our business? If we think believe that having a six figure business is too hard then we will undoubtedly reinforce that belief through our actions and have a business that is hard to run.
• Values and Passions: Are we spending time doing what we love? Are we saying YES to the opportunities that lead to more of what we want? Maybe…or maybe not. Getting burned out, overwhelmed or hitting “the wall” are all signs you are not in as much alignment as you think.
• Business Model: Is the way we currently offer our programs going to deliver the results we desire? I don’t just mean money here either. I mean having the level of impact on the world, the time freedom and the financial means to live the life we want.
If you are feeling out of alignment, start by going back to the basics. Make a list of your top five values and priorities (priorities might be short term needs vs. what’s important over your lifetime.)
Now notice how many of your values and priorities are actually present in your day to day life. How much time do you really spend doing what you love?
How much longer will you allow yourself to endure spending your days disconnected from what’s important?
Here is my 2010 success challenge for you: Make a decision today to get realigned with your truth. If you need help with this process, then join the Fast Track to Lifestyle Business program. Hundreds of graduates have found their real success by following this system. Will you?
