What is Success? Or rather what is your definition of success?

Many people live through life drifting without realizing that they are successful in their own right? Most people equate accumulation of wealth as being successful. They wrongly believe that because they did not fully enjoyed the material things in this world that they are a failure and people perceived them as failure. The only thing that seems to motivate them is earning a lot of money, and they measure their accomplishment and success based on how much money they make and have. These people surely did not understand that the measure of Wealth is not how much you have but how much you give.

Pope John Paul II once said, ” None are so poor that they have nothing to give…., and none are so rich that they have nothing to receive.”

Since everyone have something to give, there must be some achievements or successes in their life that they can be proud of. The only challenge is that most people are so engrossed in the quest of material successes that they felt depress when they did not get them; and they felt that their life is a failure. These “failures” will be a stumbling block and affect them in moving forward to achieve their true success.

How do we change this mindset of “failure” to mindset of success? One sure way is to Make A Life Map of Achievement . This reminds me of the one I made a few months ago,when I attended a Certified NLP Sales Training for the Trainer course ; the trainer asked all of us to introduced ourselves by drawing pictures using mind mapping matter for self introduction. The process is very simple;

1. Take a blank piece of paper and draw yourself in the middle.

2. Branch out from the center each significant moment that you think make you who you are today.

3. The significant moment must be something that lead to positive change.

Simple process but as you draw along, you will realize that you have achieve more than what you know you have achieved. Successful people anchored their significant successful moment to move forward for greater success. They use their success metaphor to turn stumbling block into stepping stone and enjoy life their fullest.

Try it, I believe you will love it after doing your Life Map of Achievement!
