Are you chasing someone else’s version of success? In this video I share five transformative questions to help you define success for yourself. Too often, we measure our worth by external standards—money, recognition, or societal expectations. It’s time to stop and reflect.
Grab a piece of paper and follow along as I guide you through:
- Identifying your most fulfilling moments
- Understanding whose approval you seek
- Discovering what you’d do without fear or limitations
- Clarifying how you want to feel at the end of each week, month, and year
- Imagining the impact of your life well-lived
✨ Start your journey to a more authentic and fulfilling definition of success.

This week I am talking about success—how you define success—because what I’ve learned in being a coach is so often people don’t define success, and they are living out their lives actually trying to be successful in somebody else’s model.
Knock it off. Grab a sheet of paper. Write it down somewhere.
So, what are some moments in your life that you felt the most fulfilling and meaningful—and why? That’s our first question.
No. 2: Whose approval or recognition do you seek? When you feel successful, who do you want to tell about it? Who do you want to celebrate with? Who are you looking for affirmation from?
No. 3: If money, status, and fear weren’t factors, what would you pursue every single day? What would you do? What would just fill you up?
No. 4: How do you want to feel at the end of a week, the end of a month, and at the end of the year? Write that down. You need to get that in.
No. 5: When you imagine a life well lived, what kind of impact have you made—and on whom?
It’s that simple. It really is. Answering some of those starts you on a great journey of exploration.
