Do you want to be successful? 🏆

Chances are you do

The problem is

Society has defined what makes you successful

So how do you define your success?

Let me show you..

"Success Defined By YOU"

- THREAD -
1.

Success tends to revolve around what society tells us

- Get straight A's
- Play by the rules
- Get a good paying job and move up the ranks over 30 years
- Retire at 66

Success is what aligns best for YOU

You wouldn't expect a fish to climb a tree would you? 🌲 🐟
2.

Growing up, we're told to play it "safe" in order to succeed

Look at the kids with straight A's

Sure they may go to a great university and work at some of the best paying jobs...

But are they making a change in the world?

What are you striving towards?
3.

Following the rules means to conform

Expertise is rewarded, not conformity

Do you want to be the person who moves up the ladder

Or do you want to create something great?
4.

Learn to quit

Society tells us to persevere in order to succeed.

Grit can be useful, but sometimes its smarter to quit

But don't just quit because you feel like it

Strategically quit 🗺

Quit when something isn't working and try something different
5.

Network with people 🌎

Who's more likely to succeed?

The lone wolf 🐺

Or the person with a village behind his back?

So

How do you network?

- Find common ground
- Join social groups
- Listen/share with people
- Follow up
6.

Believe in yourself... maybe?

You're told to believe in yourself and you should!

But don't let that turn into overconfidence

Overconfident people make mistakes often

Don't be a know it all

Be willing to admit you don't know something

You'll be seen in a better light.
7.

Work hard 24/7 or work-life balance?

We're told the harder you work, the more successful you'll be

But is that really true?

Sure you may get a pay raise or two

But there are consequences to this..

- Burnout
- Overworked
- No purpose in life
- Poor rest/sleep
Success is literally what you make it

If success means working a corporate job then so be it

If it means building the life you want then great

YOU define your success

So

What do you define success as?
