Redefining Success On Your Terms The Unlock Lab
-
- Careers
Summary
In this episode I challenge the status quo and ask the daring question—what is success, really? We can easily find ourselves chasing benchmarks set by society, or those we spend our time with, often losing ourselves in a never ending cycle of new goalposts. Tune in to discover that the true measure of success could be something entirely different. Something even BIGGER.
Episode highlights:
Unpack the dangers of a one-size-fits-all definition of success, and the self-sabotage that ensues when we chase externally imposed goals.
Life lessons learned including my transition from a finance-centered mindset to one rich in impact and personal alignment. And also a lesson in how I was measuring my relationships.
Client story showing just how profound redefining success can be.
🏆 3 Key Takeaways:
1. Embrace a mindset shift: Start to define success on your own terms, prioritizing your well-being and inner peace over society's loud expectations.
2. Measure the qualitative: Success is not just about the numbers; it's about growth, relationships, and how your work aligns with your core values.
3. Continuous re-evaluation is crucial: As life transitions, so should your benchmarks for success. Identify what truly resonates with your identity beyond external accolades.
Quotables:
"This concept of really looking deeply at how you want to define success is life changing because it's waking you up to the rules and the systems and the people that you're living your life by. Because if it's not yourself, then there's an opportunity for you to live your biggest, best life yet, because you get to define what success looks like for you. And nobody else can dictate that. Not your parents, not your colleagues, not your boss, not your friends, and certainly not society at large."
"Defining success may mean that you're taking things day by day, and the quantitative measures may be something you push to the side. And you focus more on qualitative measures like who you're being and how you're showing up and what you're prioritizing and sticking to your prioritization list and being discerning and all these other ways that we can define success that aren't perhaps metrics that we're used to, like financial, like quantity, like all of those things."
“Redefining success is not just an act; it's a revolutionary movement towards a more authentic and satisfied self. “
