Unleash Your Definition of Success: It's Time to Make a Positive Splash in the World!

Hey there, fellow success seekers! Tyler Perry once said, “You're not truly successful unless your success is having a positive impact on the world.” That one really got me thinking.

On this wild ride of mindset transformations, I’ve found that the real game-changer is awareness. It's that one thing that sparks change and allows us to redefine success on our own terms.

Full transparency here: Tyler Perry’s quote has been sitting on my whiteboard for ages, almost taunting me with its truth. I knew there was something I needed to learn from it, but it didn't fully click until recently. That lightning-bolt moment?

Realizing that my definition of success wasn’t truly mine.

Growing up, I thought success meant money—lots of it. The more, the better. But that version of success didn’t fit me or my vision for making a real impact. It was like trying to squeeze into shoes that were two sizes too small—uncomfortable and painful.

So, I asked myself some awareness-creating questions (I’ve got them for you below), and I started to shape my own definition of success. Spoiler alert: success, for me, now means doing something positive every single day that makes a difference.

No more forcing myself into someone else’s mold. And the more I lean into my new definition, the quieter those nagging doubts about not being enough become. Bye-bye, self-doubt!

Now, it’s your turn. Let’s explore what success really means for you. Here are the questions I mentioned:

• How do you define success?

• Is your definition truly yours or someone else’s?

• Does your definition inspire and support you? If not, how ready are you to change it?

• If you’re ready to redefine success, what do you want it to look like?

If you feel that pull to redefine success in a way that truly speaks to you, take the time to reflect, and if it feels right, share it here. Let’s support each other on this journey to something more meaningful and true to who we are.

Success is what you make of it, and it starts with you.
