⭐ Understanding Success (By Definition)

Hi Team....

Over the last few weeks I was moving closer to no longer using a certain word...

That word is: Success.

Why Coach?

Well, I found it being over-used, abused, and losing its distinction.

But, for today, I am bringing it back for explanatory purposes.

Definition: To achieve something desired, planned, or attempted.

This am, I put a tweet out that read this:

Success at anything is nothing more than a well executed routine performed over time with passion, enthusiasm, and a knowingness that you will be victorious.

After reading the definition of the word success, this would make perfect sense, right?

What if success was just a daily process? (this is the planned part of the definition of success)

What if success was you taking the risk each day and doing the work that gets you closer to your vision? (this is the attempted part of the definition of success)

What if you worked with passion and actually loved the process, the grind, the push, and the challenge? (this is the desired part of the definition of success)

You see, nowhere does the definition of the word say success is this magical, unachievable, final destination.

But rather it is the result (one of many) that is based on YOUR desires, YOUR plan, and YOUR attempts.

Yes, attempts.

That means you will attempt success.

To try to perform, make, or achieve.

That is what "to attempt" means by definition..

That means, success is nothing more than trying!

You just have to try.

And try and try and try again.

Combine that with your plan (an orderly or step-by-step conception or proposal for accomplishing an objective, a proposed or intended course of action) and you will again see, success is nothing more than an attempt at an intended course of action!

I have found that when we can deconstruct words, by definition, everything can change as it relates to our state of mind and that way in which we view things, or work towards things.

Fortunately, I have had the opportunity to coach so many CEOs, Leaders, Founders, Entrepreneurs, & Professional Athletes- and when I ask them"how they did it"?- many have no idea.

Outside of hard daily work at a process where the "how-to" is not yet defined- all of these people listed above have fully committed to the desired outcome and the willingness to attempt success.

That is all I want from you.

To have a willingness to attempt success by having a plan.

Got it?

YOUR plan and the courage to attempt with daily discipline.

If you do that, you have a great chance of getting what you want once you define what that is.

It is that simple.

Not easy, but simple.

Now, let's finish this week strong.

Let's make it happen- by attempting success via excellence and a daily execution of process.

WIN TODAY.

Your Coach,

COACH DANA CAVALEA
