“Success is getting what you want, happiness is wanting what you get” ― W. P. Kinsella
How can I make the year 2022 work for me?- Quora
I think we can make a big impact in 2022 when we learn first to define want success looks like for ourselves. We can’t make the year work for you if you don’t know what you are aiming for in the first place.
Success means different things to different people. My life changed the moment I realized I was living my life based off the standards of others. Here are a few suggestions to help jump start your new year:
Learn to trust your inner voice.
This was a hard lesson for me to learn. It’s like programing your GPS to your desired location and then wanting to turn it off or doubting it because it’s taking on a whole new route you never traveled before. Once you get comfortable using the GPS, you learn to trust that it knows the best way to get you there. You stop trying to outsmart the navigation system.
Figure out what you’re aiming for
I learned to set goals a little more by watching football. If you don’t know what end zone yours is, you’ll never know which way to run and when you’ve had a touchdown. Once I started setting goals, my brain went to work looking for opportunities like a quarterback looks for a receiver.
Stop waiting for approval from others
Sometimes we are the one who must be the first to lead. This goes with trusting your inner voice which seems to get louder the more you listen. We all have an assignment to do in life. You have a special gift or talent that you are equipped with. This is your superpower. The world is waiting for you to discover and cultivate your special power. You might have the idea to end world hunger or cure cancer but without you are taking that first step to cultivate your superpower, the world is left with a great loss. That missing puzzle piece.
Build a support team
We don’t have to do everything on our own. Look for other people who want to also do something in their life. We can be become candles for each other who in turn help to keep each other’s paths lit. Form an accountability group or create your own.
As we close out 2021, I always suggest taking inventory of the things that worked for you and the things that you would like to change. To get to your desired location, you must know where you are on the map!
I would love to learn more about who you are and what you do. Feel free to connect with me through a Meetup group.
