The heart of true success is a sense of personal satisfaction.
It is an achievement that is nourished and grows with purpose, vision and action.
This Six Steps to Success was developed to help you define and achieve your personal and professional objectives. Below are the six steps for your use. Here’s to your success!
Step 1: Take Action
Congratulations! You have already taken the first and most important step to being successful: Taking Action! You may have recently been thinking about your life. Where you are versus where you want to be and discovered that you are not truly happy with your “right now”. So, you decided it was time to do something about it. Making a decision to make a change in your life is a big deal! Completing the steps in this article will keep you moving in the direction of your desired success.
Step 2: How Do You Define Success?
The second step in achieving success is clearly defining how that looks to you. It is not about the conventional definition. Success is based on a personal relationship with yourself. Take a moment now and answer the question “How do you define success?”
Step 3: Who Are You Really?
Now it is time to explore the real you – not the public persona. Take some time and really think about who you are – on the inside. We get so busy taking care of others and making sure we are maintaining our “to do” list, that it is important now and then to remind ourselves of who we are intrinsically. Take a moment and write out your top 3 values right now and why each is important to you.
Step 4: Plan for Success
Now it’s time to put together a plan to get you from where you are today to where you want to be. This is the most common missed step. Just “wishing it so” doesn’t necessarily get you there, you need a road map. Write our 3-5 goals that are in alignment with your core values and give yourself a deadline to complete each goal within the next year.
Step 5: Work the Plan
You now know who you are, where you want to be so put that plan into action! Take a look at your top goals and then break down each into 3-5 steps needed to achieve that goal. For instance, if your goal was to find a more fulfilling job and one of your steps was to research available options, write down the ways you plan on finding these possible new positions, how many options you want to select from and when you will complete your list of choices from each source. Then, Take Action and start working your plan!
Step 6: Celebrate Your Success!
You did it! All too often when we meet our goals, big or small, we don’t take the time to celebrate our achievements. We rejoice for others but acknowledging our own accomplishments is just as important. Be sure to celebrate you every time you achieve one of your goals.
