What Does
Success Mean
to You?

Everyone's definition of success is different. Is it a dollar
amount? Is it a lifestyle change? Being able to provide for loved
ones? Feeling independent? What do you feel like you have to
accomplish before you consider yourself "successful"? To harness
these answers, make a two-column list. In the left column, write
down everything you dislike about your current situation and the
way it makes you feel. Think about every aspect of your current
work life or your last job, such as:

• How you feel when you wake up in the morning
• How you feel arriving at work and leaving the office
• The level of respect you get at work
• The amount of pay that you receive for your efforts
• The quirks of the office that continually bother you, the lack

of satisfaction

In the right-hand column, note how you would like to feel when
you wake up and after you have completed a day's work. Write
down what your dream entrepreneurial life would be like and
what milestones you'd like to see as you follow your dream.
Would you like to sell your product at a local craft fair or at
national chain stores? Would you like to work twenty hours a
week and pick up your kids at school? Would you like to secure
your financial future?

The right-hand side of this list will become your goals as you
begin your journey. How great would it feel to wake up early
and jump out of bed with anticipation that the day can bring
excitement and fulfillment? Once you have written your goals,
refer back to them frequently until they become real. Rereading
them, especially at difficult times, will remind you why you began
this venture and what happiness may await you.
