There are really two questions that drive everything…
If you want good answers you have to ask good questions.
The first question...
If we were sitting down and having a conversation 1 year from today, and you were looking back over that year, what has to have happened for you to feel happy, for you to have your “dream come true” result?
The important thing with the above question is you think about what success looks like.
Too many of us are working towards improving things but we don't ever step back and look at what success actually looks like.
Ask yourself the above question, write it down, and tack it somewhere where you'll see it every day.
Two things are going to happen...
You now have a clear picture of what success looks like so you'll be more focused on what you need to do to accomplish it.
And...
As humans, we are terrible at gratitude to ourselves.
It's never good enough and we could always do more, right?
Well, if today you write down what success looks at the end of this year, I can all but guarantee when the end of the year comes around, if you didn't write it down you may have accomplished all that you were going after, but you'll see it as it's not good enough because you'll want more and not realize how much you actually accomplished.
The second question...
What do YOU need to change to make that happen?
This is where the results are made.
Action.
Execution.
However you want to think about it, it's going to take you changing something.
We can help you come up with answers, but ultimately, you need to discover the answer yourself.
We know a self-selected answer to this question has a significantly higher success rate compared to advice.
Advice is great in the short-term, but doesn’t stick long-term.
So...
Get super clear on what success looks like and then figure out what you need to change to make that happen.
It doesn’t matter what aspect of your life we’re talking about, the answer to these two questions drive everything.
It sounds simple, but only a few take the time to map this out.
1% Better.
Dedicated to Your Success,
