What Is Success To You?
As my sons are ending their college careers, and shifting their focus to interviewing, compensation packages, and training programs, we discuss balance, enjoying what you do, and lifestyle.
Naturally, money is a BIG deal. They are starting out on their own and will need new cars 🚘, a place to live, and an upgrade in wardrobe. They will be taking on car insurance, health insurance, renters insurance, and then one day, homeowners insurance, a mortgage, and so on.
From us, their parents, they hopefully see us model what we preach. For example,
I so LOVE what I do for a living: I help people live the life of their dreams
And it does take money.
Now here’s the thing: before I consult with anyone about owning a franchise, I have them put in writing
- WHO is important to them
- WHAT they do with the money the business makes and
- HOW they will spend their time away from the business.
Clearly, true success is not just about making money. It's about making a difference - in the lives of people you care about - your family members, your friends, your community.
As I trust is obvious, it’s also about making a positive difference in your own life. I have people write down what they want a business to do for them - personally, professionally, and financially.
Here’s to work-life balance, well-being, growth, fulfillment, creating wealth, and living the life of your dreams!
