REVEALED: The New Way To Look At Success (And What It Means For You In Business)

Success has many stereotypes doesn’t it? Flashy cars, mega mansions, laptop lifestyles, beautiful destinations… 

If you ever feel like you’re falling behind… you’re not the only one

Success is often associated with an end point – a ‘look I’ve made it’ moment. But what we often fail to see is the PROCESS behind the financial rewards and the freedom lifestyles…

It’s in this process the new way of looking at ‘success’ emerges. One that stops ‘comparison-itis’ holding you back. And helps you move forward towards your goals and dreams, faster!

The key to note is:

Success doesn’t obey the cause and effect principle. You can be doing all the ‘right things’ – all the training, reading all the books, attending all the seminars…and nothing happens. The ‘moment’ doesn’t arrive. Thoughts like ‘I’m not good enough’… ‘or not deserving enough…’ come creeping in.

But, when we look at success through a NEW lens, and give it NEW meaning, it offers us a NEW way forward … starting with the idea of success as an emergent…

An emergent from cycling through these 5 Crucial Steps:

1. 1. 1. 1. 1. ACCESS: Get new information relative to the outcome you want
            2. ACTION: Take action on this information
            3. RESULT: Get a (measurable) result
            4. FEEDBACK: Get feedback on the result
            5. ADJUSTMENT: Tweak as necessary!

Now you may be thinking – “yeah, yeah, I’ve heard these steps before…”- well, here’s the kicker!

You can rote learn these steps, and say you ‘know’ them already – BUT! What you can’t rote learn is the EXPERIENCE of actually DOING them.

You see, the difference between semantic and episodic learning forms the basis of a new way to look at success via: The Process Of SUCCESSING!

Imagine if ‘success’ wasn’t an end point (or a perfectly polished persona). What if success was reframed as a simple ‘doing’ process -something you could experience and enjoy every day (no matter what the result)!

Sounds pretty good right!?

When you embrace “Successing” over “Success” you can:

ü  STOP attending workshops, events, seminars, webinars… just to be seen to be doing the “right thing” … and instead attend them with a strategic action plan at the ready!

ü  STOP gathering information waiting to feel like you ‘know what you’re doing’ – nope, shelf development won’t bring those changes you need (sorry!)

        STOP wishing, waiting and hoping for success to come along like … poof… the genie out of the lamp!

But!

Without understanding the 5 Crucial Successing Steps - you’ll likely get stuck, and feel even more ‘unsuccessful’. Most often this happens at step #2…

"If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always got!" – Henry Ford

And that’s the problem.

Always doing what you’ve always done.

If you’re anything like me… you’ve probably spent thousands to learn coaching skills, business skills and achieving qualifications. Then you’ve probably spent even more money learning marketing and selling strategies. 

It’s what we believe is going to make us successful. It’s what we’re told is going to work. We focus on Step #1… and never get beyond it!

So… how’s it working for you? Are you absorbing information at a rate of knots but feeling less and less capable as it mounts?

Or, are you clear on what you should be doing… but (for some reason…) you’re just not doing it?

So, come explore the concept of “successing” - See you there!
