What Does Success Look Like to You? How Do You Find Success?

Take a moment to reflect on one of life's most significant questions: What does success look like to you? As successful women juggling work, family, and everything in between, we often find ourselves pondering how we get to have it all. But let's debunk the myth right away – success is not a one-size-fits-all definition. It's not about checking off boxes on a predetermined list; instead, it's about creating a life that aligns with our deepest desires and aspirations.

What is the mystery behind success?

In a world that bombards us with social norms and expectations, it's easy to fall into the trap of comparing ourselves to others. But here's a point to ponder — Success is an individual metric, it is not a societal definition.

So, throw out the masses definitions of success and embark on your own journey of finding your truth.

You have to start the journey.

Success is a lifelong trajectory that we point our dreams and ambitions towards. For some, it may be building a thriving career while nurturing a loving family, and for others, it could mean starting a passion project or traveling the world. For me, it’s multi-faceted — and BIG. Did you expect anything less?

The beauty lies in the diversity of each of our desires and our individual freedom to chase what sets our souls on fire.

Ready?

Now, close your eyes for a moment. Imagine your life without constraints – without any preconceived notions of what success "should" be. What does your heart truly yearn for? Maybe it's those cozy dinners at home, laughter-filled moments with your loved ones, or taking time for yourself to grow and heal at a wellness retreat. Remember, there's no right or wrong answer, and your version of success is worthy of celebration.

Sit in it. Breath it in.

Is it becoming more clear? If it is, grab your journal, a cup of tea, and a comfortable space where you can delve into your thoughts. Free write about what success means to you, with no restrictions or inhibitions. Pour your heart out onto the pages – whether it's about material accomplishments, personal growth, or simply finding joy in the little things. This exercise is your canvas; let it be colorful, raw, and uniquely yours.

The future is uniquely yours.

Remember that your journey towards success is uniquely yours to define. Embrace the ups and downs, the twists and turns, and celebrate every milestone along the way. By unleashing our inner aspirations and striving for harmony between all aspects of our lives, we can truly find the fulfillment we seek.

In the words of Maya Angelou, "Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it." So, lovelies, embark on this adventure of self-discovery and redefine success on your own terms!

It's time you embrace your own unique story and the journey to your own definition of success.
