W.I.N. Wednesday: It would be easy to believe I am a failure if……..
It would be easy to believe I am a failure if I get caught up in the comparison game.
It would be easy to believe I am a failure if I get sucked into using other people’s definition of success.
It would be easy to believe I am a failure if I listened to those who say to be successful you need to have a university degree. Or those who suggest that to truly be successful an Associate or Bachelors degree is not enough, you need a Masters Degree or those who suggest that to be really successful you need a PhD.
It would be easy to believe that I am a failure if I listened to those who measure success by the rank, position, or title you achieve in your organization.
It would be easy to believe that I am a failure if I listened to those who measure success by the size of your home or how much money you make every year.
It would be easy to believe I am a failure because I do not speak to packed auditoriums with thousands of people in attendance like the “big name successful speakers”.
It would be easy to believe I am a failure because none of the five books we published became “Best Sellers”.
It would be easy to believe that I am a failure if I listened to those who suggest that to be successful as an entrepreneur you need to grow your company to over a million dollars a year in revenue and continually grow the number of employees.
It would be easy to believe I am a failure if I get caught up in the comparison game and get sucked into using other people’s definition of success.
It would be easy, but it would not be helpful. Fortunately, I have learned over the years to avoid those traps and false measures of success.
What’s Important Now? Avoid the lure and the trap of comparison and others definition of success.
Take care.
