Whilst every person may have their own unique definition of personal success, it is always beneficial to discuss a universal qualifier of what success really is. Join Rob today as he discusses the definition of success. Discover how creating value in areas most important to you can be defined as successful, how transient measures of success can send you on a never-ending quest for success and why for something to be deemed as a success it must be both selfish and selfless.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• It is wise to discuss a universal qualifier of success so that we can pursue more of the things that are important to us and make the biggest difference. As we go through life our qualifier of success becomes personal. These may be meeting satisfaction, getting results, financial or accolades. The problem with these quantifiers is that they are transient and often many of them are selfish.

 

• For something to be successful, it has to be selfless as well as selfish. Success is nothing to do with your accolades, money or rewards. Success needs to balance the selfish and selfless.  If your definition includes material items such as money, cars or watches, then there is always going to be someone with more of those than you.

 

• Success is you creating value in your unique area. Being valuable in the area that is of greatest importance to you can be defined as being a success. If you compare yourself to someone else’s success, you cannot be a success. That is their life, not yours. That is their values and vision, not yours.

 

• The deeper sense of happiness and fulfilment is directly linked to how many people you help and how much you help them. The great thing about having a global vision is you are always helping more people, therefore you are always able to add to your sense of satisfaction and value.

 

• Entrepreneurs can go through stages where their success is defined by how much money they have, how many material items they own and how large their business is. You will eventually realise that there is no end to that. Therefore that chase can make you feel unworthy or empty.

BEST MOMENTS

“If your goal for success is happiness, that is selfish.”

“Something that is absolutely not the definition of success, is comparing yourself to others.”

“The only thing on the planet that you are the best at, is being you.”

“Do you go back and hat tip to yourself? Credit yourself for all those things that you have achieved along the journey? If you do, you are okay on that journey of ever-increasing targets.”
