In this article I will share what I have found to be a Winning Formula to flourishing and feeling fulfilled in whatever you do.
If you have read and applied what I wrote about in the FIND THE GAP article series, then you’ll already be well on your way to creating fulfilling results. The “gap” is like a master key to your personal success, no matter how you define success, so make sure to read or revise these tips here.
Whether you are starting something new, or wanting to improve a current situation, the first thing is to identify what is most important to you in that context, and then take a step in that direction.
From then on, all you need to do is follow the signs…
It’s that simple!
There’s never a shortage of signs to show us the way.
We’re either heading where we want to go, or where we don’t want to go.
The signs let us know which track we’re on.
Positive results and good feelings – means we’re on the “right” track.
Negative results and bad feelings – means we’re on the “wrong” track.
That’s how easy the signs are to read.
The accomplishment of your goals or lack thereof – is a sign!
To keep the journey fulfilling, our goals need to change in order to match the terrain.
As long as you know where you’re going (your purpose), you can never be lost.
If you are aware of the greater purpose of your life, and you’re committed to fulfilling that, then you’re on the highway with cruise control. Remember to enjoy the scenery along the way!
If you’re choosing to focus on specific purposes in the different areas of your life, then you have the best GPS system in the universe to guide you to your chosen destinations.
Either way is better! As long as you are clear about your purpose(s).
Always ensure that your goals lead toward fulfilling your purpose(s).
Your goals can change as often as they need to, but they must be purpose driven.
Start by eliciting your purpose (for your life, or in any specific context), then imagine how you will experience yourself having fulfilled that purpose, and then allow that state to inspire any necessary action towards its ongoing fulfillment. This is a basic form of the Beyond Goals methodology that I teach in this video.
I like to think that a Winning Formula is when we use these ideas to do what’s good for ourselves, and for others, and for the world – Win-Win-Win!!!
It doesn’t matter if you’re wanting to achieve greater inner and/or outer wealth. You now have a Winning Formula in your hands. How will you choose to use it?
