    The Secret To True Success

    The Secret to True Success is Revealing Your Best Self Along the Way Most people think that in order to be successful, they need to change who they are. This couldn't be further from the truth. You don't need to become someone else in order to achieve your goals. In fact, it's actually the opposite. True success comes when you align your material goals with the highest version of yourself you can envision so that you become more of who you are. Before we dive in, I have a free offer to give you.  It’s an empowering affirmation sequence that puts you in the "I can do anything when I feel this powerful" kind of energy. Its a free PDF  that you can find on my website www.dragongateuniversity.com and it’s called I Can & I Am  FREE PDF Affirmation .You can tape it onto your mirror or leave it on your coffee table. I love these kinds of things to incorporate in my morning routine and putting it in the center of a vision board. If any of your guys turn it into something really pretty or creative please share it on tiktok and send it to me! I would love to see it! By the way: If we haven't met yet, I'm Alexa. I help heart centered people quit dimming and discover their impact so they can create the life of their dreams by unlocking who they are. I do this via Happiness and Success Courses & Energy Work at www.DragonGateUniversity.com So, as you set out to achieve your goals, it's important to remember that who you become in the process of achieving them is more important than the goals themselves. Too often, people focus on the external trappings of success without realizing that true happiness and fulfillment can only come from within. All other external success is actually a natural byproduct of deciding to focus on becoming the best version of yourself through said goals and desires. Your goal and desire is just the means for your expansion. Every time you set a goal it's essentially- like they sometimes do in cartoons to the puppy - tying a carrot onto a stick and holding it in front of you so you have immediate incentive to run forward. That carrot is your tangible goal, while the treasures you accumulate in the heart are the things that build the foundation for your happiness & wisdom. All of your inner workings are the only parts that determine your happiness in any given moment and the only success you take with you beyond death. So, when you consciously pick the shiniest carrot to run after and decide that it will be for a specific purpose, what’s actually happening is your spiritual legs are getting stronger and your jumping over mental obstacles with more ease. Your goal and desire is a cause that you make as an offering for who become in the process. It’s an offering to your future self, can you believe it?! Goals and dreams and desires, when backed by this kind of intention & purpose are the greatest way to honor and understand the value of your life. Too often, our material goals are actually misaligned with the direction that our highest selves exists. Or maybe we set our sights on a path that isn't aligned with who we are and what we value, but is instead a product of societal expectations or pressure from our families. This is why some of the wealthiest people make it to the top and still feel deeply lonely, empty & unfulfilled and these characteristics of the heart manifest themselves as self sabotage, meaning that these people usually do not maintain their success, wealth, or joy for long. I strongly recommend Zooming in and then Zooming out of each one of your goals to gain clarity in determining which of your goals and desires are not actually part of your highest path. And then discarding those. Because when you focus on the goals and desires that DO play supporting roles in creating your Highest reality you end up building a life you don’t actually want. So take inventory of your goals, are they on the road map towards your overarching dream life? Because each victory is much like building a bridge from where you are now, to your next life - while simultaneously creating and attracting all the supporting puzzle pieces necessary to reveal your ultimate Self, build your dream Lifestyle + Home & attract your World Peace Partner. Additionally, please get a little unhinged with the imagining up your future! Dream big and then dream bigger. Your goals and desires should feel exciting on a cellular level! So here is a straightforward step by step: 1 Get clear about what you don't want. To get clear about what you DO want. 2 Imagine the version of yourself that has what you do want. What does it feel like to be that version? What kind of characteristics do they have? Become this person to line up with what you want. 3 Attach a heart focused intention for each goal. If you do all 3 of these things your momentum will be insane!Here are some examples of good intentions: My goal/desire of achieving ___ is for the sake of…. Family Harmony. World Peace. A Sense of Stability. Developing Confidence. Getting clearer about my life’s mission. Figuring out what I’m good at. Learning to encourage myself. THESE ARE ALL GOOD INTENTIONS. If you aren’t clear on your intention or not even clear about a goal; start with courage and faith in yourself. Decide that your goals will be for the courage and faith you will need to win at your goals while developing happiness no matter what. And move forward with the intention of building deep faith in all the untapped potential you have in yourself which reveals itself during the most crucial moments of your journey. You don’t have to have all the answers before you start. This way you will develop more clarity in who you are and become absolutely able to determine a clearer direction and path to take eventually.   Remember, true success is different from external success and in this lifetime you will have both. Because internal happiness is the success from which all other successes stem from - if all you've done today is tended to your heart, you have actually accomplished 10,000 things. All other tangible successes are manifestations of this one true success, your happiness. The secret to true success, then, is to use your goals, desires and all the challenges that come with it to breakthrough into expanded levels of yourself. Revealing the best parts of yourself along your journey adds richness to mundane things, and transforms even the most hellish circumstances into victories. This brings us to the end of today's podcast. If you liked this, stay tuned for the next one as we get you closer and closer to all your life changing breakthroughs. Remember, your personal happiness is for the sake of world peace, so your life's mission must comes first! Love you guys! I'll catch you soon.

    Post-Traumatic Growth

    What is Post-Traumatic Growth and how to facilitate it in yourself. In this episode of secrets to happiness & success I am going to tell you what Post traumatic growth is and How to Facilitate it in Yourself It can be difficult to understand that people can experience good things coming from bad situations, but there are many examples that show how this can happen. People who have experienced a trauma and come out stronger as a result are said to have undergone post-traumatic growth. In today's podcast we will explore the concept of post-traumatic growth in more detail and discuss some of the ways that you can facilitate it in yourself. I'm gonna throw out a free offer really quick: if you like this podcast and want to be walked through some post-traumatic growth exercises I have a FREE Mini Course on 5 Ways To Have A Breakthrough up on Dragongateuniversity.com  It includes a Bonus Meditation. Just click through the Courses section and you'll find it there. Hi! If we haven't met yet, I'm Alexa. I help heart centered people to quit dimming and discover their impact so they can create the life of their dreams without sacrificing who they are. I do this via Happiness & Success Education & Energy Work. Post-Traumatic Growth is the concept that some people experience positive psychological changes after struggling with traumatic events. For example, when someone has experienced a trauma and they have come out stronger as a result of it, this is post-traumatic growth. there are many examples that show how this can happen so it's important for you to understand and consider your own situation. There are many different factors that can contribute to post-traumatic growth. Some of these include: • The severity of the trauma • Your current baseline for internal happiness • The support that is available during the grief & the bounce-back • Your individual's personality and mindset Post-Traumatic growth is really the groundwork for any successful person. I mean people that are successful in business and in relationships. They are successful because they learned to use life's regular-degular challenges as jumping off points. When you understand what post-traumatic growth is and the factors that can contribute to it, you can start to consider which resources to gather and how they could benefit you. Let’s Identify the signs that you're experiencing or have experienced post-traumatic growth People who have undergone post-traumatic growth experience a number of positive changes in their lives. Some of these changes include: • Increased self-awareness • Greater empathy for others • Improved relationships • Increased sense of meaning and purpose in life It is important to note that not everyone who experiences a traumatic event will go on to experience post-traumatic growth. This is because post-traumatic growth is not just a response to trauma it is a mindset that can be taught and learned and practiced to mastery. In my school I’ve developed a culture of breaking through as a way of life. For the day to day challenged I do prefer to refer to post-traumatic growth as Breaking Through. Wooohoooo doesn’t that sound good! Here are the 2 things that effect your ability to break through your challenges whether it’s an internal challenge or an external circumstance. -your existing mindset -& quality of your supporting environment which includes: people and media. Because breakthroughs require rewiring and reprogramming core parts of ourselves everything you intake is super important but you’re here which means you’re doing the work already so consider this a thumbs up from the Universe. The breakthrough process can be expedited by seeking out support from friends, family, and professionals When you do seek support, it is important to be selective about who you talk to. Not everyone will be able to understand or even knows how to hold space for your experience. It is important to find people who will listen and not judge. It can also be helpful to talk to a professional therapist or counselor who can help you process your experience and give you tools to work through any challenges that you may be experiencing. I also recommend exploring Life Coaches, Mentors, Healers, Courses and even Books as well! When something traumatic happens, it can be difficult to get back to "normal." It can feel like the trauma has changed you and that you are now a different person. But we aren’t trying to get back to normal we are breaking through into a new standard of living. And all of your 180’s will be in the right direction. This can feel uprooting and overwhelming. Every in-between feels this way. First comes the trauma, then that free-falling feeling, then the breakthrough. I think Steve Harvey said it best, “if you’re going through hell right now, why would you stop in the middle of hell?!” Haha. It’s true though that it’s darkest before the dawn and winter always turns into spring. When you decide to have a breakthrough no matter what, your perspective of trauma will change. You’ll start to view each one as a valuable opportunity for growth and you’ll welcome it like a crazy person. Another one thank you! Continuously breaking through will create a new baseline for happiness. This means that you can find happiness even in the midst of difficult circumstances. You may not be happy all the time, but you’ll know exactly how to generate it from the inside out the moment you’re effected. This is why the little breakthroughs and wins are so important, because all the small ones create your sturdy foundation which will be useful when handling the big life changing breakthroughs. This can be incredibly empowering and help you to move forward in your life with hope and optimism. If you are seeking to facilitate post-traumatic growth  and breakthroughs in yourself, here are three things that you can do: 1. Research the stories of people who have overcome situations like yours 2. Clearly identify the challenge and clearly identify the goal, because when you get clear about what you don’t want you can get really clear about what you don’t want. Then find a way to create a bridge between the 2. 3. Seek out support from friends, family, and professionals 4. Reflect on your progress regularly It is important to reflect on your progress regularly by tracking your growth and identifying any challenges that you may be experiencing. This can help you to adjust your strategies and reframe your thoughts as needed and continue on your path towards growth. Also while reflecting regularly its important to celebrate your wins by either acknowledging yourself or sharing with those that share your excitement. Post-traumatic growth is the idea that you are going to  turn their struggling and trauma into a chapter in your success story. Use your main character energy! Use your heart to imagine what that breakthrough can look like and then dream it up bigger! Then you can start to consider which resources to gather and how they could support you in turning pieces of that vision into reality. Post-traumatic growth and breaking through is an inside job and a valuable one at that. With education and support, you can develop a new baseline for happiness and tap into the potential of your own life. This brings us to the end of today's podcast. If you like'd this stay tuned for the next one as we get you closer and closer to that life changing breakthrough. Remember, your personal happiness is for the sake of world peace so your life's mission comes first. Love you guys! I'll catch you soon!
