Winning on purpose happens when you take action in your life. Don’t let life happen– make it happen. This moment is the best day of your life. It is the most special of all the other days you have lived. Do you know why? It is because today, you have the power to make your future. The trick is understanding how to choose and stick to the right path to build your best life on purpose.
How you build yourself today is how you create your better life. Being a Champion means winning ON PURPOSE. Today, you have the chance to decide to win. But it is more than just deciding. There are some active steps you have to take. These steps position you better for the future you imagine.
Here are 4 ways to position you to win on purpose.
1 Align yourself with people in flow:
Everything comes down to who you surround yourself with – your community, your network. Who are the people in your social circle/ Who do you speak to? Who do you listen to? These are the things that actively affect your thinking. Define your community, and you can define your future.
2 Go all-out for yourself:
Another thing you need to take note of is intentionality. Go all out. Don’t hold back; don’t give in to fear. The only person that can stop you is you. If you don’t allow the obstacle to get in your way, you have nothing to worry about. Go all out. Do it all.
3 Align yourself with certain skill sets:
Next, train yourself. It is okay to be sure of your capabilities. But more knowledge, training, and personal development are always good. So whenever you can, invest in yourself and your ability. Again, set yourself in a position where you can learn more about your work. To be the best on purpose, you can’t let your ego get in the way. There is always more to learn.
4 It is up to you to win:
Take responsibility for your future. Decide that you want to win. Remember, being a champion means that you win intentionally. To stay on the right track toward your best life, you have to own up to yourself and your purpose.
How can you know if you are on the right track?
- The right people get attracted to you: When you align with your purpose or your goals for the future, people of ‘like’ minds follow you. People walk up when you enter a room and want to talk to you. It is a sure sign that you are on the right track.
- The wrong people get irritated: Another sign is that toxic people – the wrong folks – get irritated and angry. Bad people don’t like you and want to see you win. When you do, they become angry. If you see toxic people giving you the eye, don’t feel sad, it is a sure sign that you are on the road to success.
The Takeaway: Winning on purpose
You must stay connected to your why to create your best life on purpose. Regardless of what life throws at you, decide to win. Stay honest with yourself at every point of your life. The worst thing you can do to yourself is to make up a lie about yourself.
Stay focused on the right track in front of you. Remember that things will distract you. It is your responsibility how you react to the distraction. Create an anchor for yourself. Pick a word, and hold on to it as your word for the year. Visualize your future and what you want for yourself. Winning on purpose is not easy, but it is possible.
