When it comes to work and career, it’s vital to get clear on what success means to you. It might mean the opportunity to take a sabbatical to allow you to travel. It might mean securing flexible hours to fit round a family. Or it might mean pursuing a dream you’ve had since you were a child. We don’t all operate in the same way or want the same things, so why do we adopt one idea of success that involves a huge salary, an impressive title and a swanky office?

A great tool for accessing this and getting clear is listing the things that you want from your life. The things that define success for you. For me, these are freedom, flexibility, truth-seeking, authenticity, collaboration, personal growth and creativity. Once we’ve made peace with the inevitability of failure, we have to look more deeply into what success really means to us and how we define it. Not just what the world and media tell us it is. Not the movies about fast cars, mansions and flashy things.

What does success really mean to you? List what success looks like or feels like. Don’t worry so much about the end goal or if it doesn’t make sense in a career trajectory. By putting it out there, you’ll have communicated to the Universe a clear message. It’ll show you the next step to take, so pay attention. And a note: sometimes it’s the things that come easiest to us, the path of least resistance that leads the way.

For example, I might write something along the lines of the following:

Success to me means living a life true to myself. With good friends, and a career that creates the freedom to travel and explore. It means not being beholden to anyone. Waking every day and feeling excited by what possibilities are around the corner. It’s being financially comfortable. Being recognised in my field. And growing in wisdom.
