What is success? Does it have to mean the same thing to all of us? And how can we break away from society's definition of success and forge our own - especially when our definition of success may be daringly different to other people?

These are questions I want us to tackle in this episode.

I discuss...

• Why it's dangerous to measure success through external circumstances & achievements

•  

  Why I don't think we should define success by how happy we feel either.

•  

  A balanced approach to goal-setting and ambition. (Because having big goals is NOT a damaging thing. But your perspective may be.)
