Mindset is everything. Without having a deep desire from within to be successful, you might never be successful. We all yearn to become better than we are, more successful than we are. That yearning comes from the inside. Our actions are reflections of how we feel on the inside. You have to reframe your definition of success before you can find it. By internalizing success and defining success as your internal well-being, you open yourself up for external success.
Susie Miller gives an overview of how to achieve internal success. Internal success leads to external, sustainable success. It is not enough to want to be successful. You have to know how to achieve sustainable success, which can only be achieved when your desire to be successful is internal.
The framework for achieving internal success:
Beliefs:
- To achieve internal success, you must pay close attention to your beliefs.
- What do you believe in?
- Will it serve long term?
- Are your beliefs quickly stomped upon?
These are questions you need to ask yourself because the mindset is everything. Your beliefs act as guides to harness the power of our beliefs. Some of us don’t have beliefs of our own. We are dependent on our environment. We believe what they believe. Unfortunately, many people will end up living a life based on other people’s beliefs.
Boundaries:
These are lines in the sand. They are dividing lines that provide you space. As you journey into achieving internal success, you need to set boundaries. Boundaries are imperative to personal success. Taking care of yourself brings untold joy into your life by being content with your personal space. These boundaries allow you to create a positive mindset for your business. Mindset is everything, and with a new positive mindset, you will succeed more in business and close more deals.
Behaviors:
If you draw your boundary, your behaviors will line up. Your behavior toward success depends on your beliefs and boundaries, respectively. People tend to want to explain every motive behind their actions. You don’t have to explain everything. Instead, let the way you behave relay the message. On those hard days, ground yourself, and stay calm so you can stay true to yourself.
Mindset is everything. Internalize your success.
It might seem impossible to have a belief system, set boundaries, and behave on them; however, the mind is a powerful tool. Mindset is everything.
Internal success is something you grow into when you honor yourself. Believe in yourself and trust your gut. Choose the belief system and boundaries that work for you and back them up with your behavior. Invest in your life, your business, and your relationship. Own your choice and beliefs and affirm them internally.
