Q: Where do pirates buy hooks?

Don't judge me…

As Eminem would say… Let's get down to business

How to change your world by defining what this one word means to you

That one word is…

Success

What does the word success mean to you?

There are so many different explanations and thoughts behind it.

For some it means reaching the pinnacle of their career

For others it could mean living a fulfilled life and positively impacting the world

It could be retiring at a young age

It could be completing a 5k

It can be goal driven

Or values driven

Ultimately other peoples opinions don't matter.

What you define it as is of the utmost importance.

As a working parent with a busy career, kids having busy social lives, trying to juggle your time between work, kids, day care, activities, and keeping the house clean life can feel daunting, overwhelming and success can easily be defined as surviving.

Hey, there's nothing wrong with that at times.

It is exhausting, tiring and so rewarding.

But there will also be times where just surviving won't be enough.

You will want more.

But you don't know what ‘more’ is

You don't know how to look for it

Or where to start

So you start to feel down and irritated and sad.

The urge is there just to give up and carry on.

But then you start to feel resentful

That sadness deepens

You feel bad about yourself

You don't feel ‘successful’

It all happens because you don't know how to define what success looks like.

Then how to plan for it.
