We put Success on a pedestal. We dream of it, 'as if' it was a trophy that only few can possess. One of the problems with this kind of thinking is: Success is not a prize to be won.
Success is made!
Success follows a process. However, Success does not follow a distinctive order like 1, 2, 3. However, it does have a consistency to it.
If Success is indeed made... would you like the Recipe?

Mix Ingredients
Be patient. There are many variables that must be considered.
The amount of ingredients will be dependent on your timeframe, resources, abilities...etc.
• If you find that the kitchen becomes too hot, turn the heat down a little • If you need more heat, turn the flame up.
You will be able to simplify the steps as you work through the Success process. It will get easier!
Footnote: If you are unsure of your own innovative ideas, you can always start by following other people’s proven recipes. Once you have recreated theirs, you may be ready to make your own creation.
The process is messy...
...but worth the effort!
We all want to be more Successful; professionally, emotionally, in our relationship, in our health and in our daily life. Success is not a trophy waiting to be won.
