Stop Measuring Success With Someone Else’s Ruler

Listen Later

What are you really measuring in your life—and who gave you that ruler?

In this episode of The Happy Stack Podcast, I dig into the powerful mindset shift of defining success on your own terms.

If you’ve ever hit a big goal and still felt empty, this is your sign that you might be tracking the wrong things.

I share the four dimensions I now use with my coaching clients (and myself!) to assess real, whole-life success—because growing without grounding isn’t success, it’s survival.

Let’s stop chasing someone else’s idea of enough and start building a life that actually feels good to live.

 

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Traditional success metrics often ignore what actually matters: peace, health, and presence
  • Hustling for external validation leads to burnout and emptiness
  • Use the “Whole-Life Scorecard”: Health, Relationships, Impact, Self-Trust
  • Self-awareness is the foundation of sustainable growth
  • Redefining success is one of the bravest things you can do
