Redefining success

You have a thriving career, continue advancing up the corporate ladder, receive glowing quarterly reviews and regular raises.  Yet, does it truly resonate as success? I know it did for me, until it didn't. The truth is, that kind of success lost its luster.  What I realized when I began my spiritual journey is that you have the power to redefine success, to build a life guided by your soul’s compass to create deeper meaning beyond career success. 

As we move from school to the workplace, we're taught that success is measured by what we achieve. The dictionary definition of success is “the accomplishment of an aim or purpose.” An A grade, a met deadline—these are the markers of success. But what if success wasn't just about external achievements, but also about soul alignment and spiritual growth? This traditional model, with its rigid extremes of success and failure, often overlooks the nuances of a life lived with purpose and meaning.   

 The idea of breaking free from the traditional success model is enticing, but the question remains: how do we actually do it? It all begins with mindset. This means challenging limiting beliefs, actively visualizing your desired outcome, and affirming your ability to create a new reality. Like any practice whether it’s physical, intellectual or spiritual, rewiring your thought patterns takes time, but over time it will get stronger and easier. Experiment with new perspectives, celebrate small wins, and embrace the joy of self-discovery. Open yourself to new possibilities, and you'll begin to witness opportunities for conscious transformation.  Isn’t the outcome to live more authentically on your own terms worth the investment in yourself?
