“Success is about who you are, not what you have. Successful people work to discover their talents, to develop those talents, and then to use those talents to benefit others as well as themselves.” -- Tom Morris
Let’s get right into what’s needed for success in a personal growth business.
Success Key #1: Know your specific calling and market niche
We each bring unique gifts and interests to this lifetime. The more you know what yours are, the better you will serve others. The more you tap into your innate passions, the more you will naturally attract wealth. And living your passion in service to others = success.
The key point here is to get really specific in defining your interests. When we’re first inspired to support others, we often have a very vague sense of how we might do that. We don’t know the details – we just know we want to empower others. We are so close to our own gifts that we have trouble identifying them.
There are an infinite number of specific areas in which we might offer support. Consider these for a start: addictions, careers, parenting, chronic pain, depression, creativity, leadership, story writing, relationships, life purpose, money, journal writing, retirement, empowerment … The list is as rich as your imagination.
What focus really gets your energy flowing? When you answer, be as specific as you possibly can.
Our challenge lies in uncovering the details from within. Most of us need to engage in a self-discovery process to identify or clarify our particular passion. And once we identify our focus, we can then define our unique market niche.
To start, here are a few questions for you to reflect on. Write your answers in your journal.
What do you love to do?
What excites and energizes you?
What are you very good at?
Look over your answers and see if your unique niche jumps out at you. Don’t worry if it doesn’t.
So, Success Key #1: Know your niche – what specifically sparks your greatest passion? Clarify your inner calling.
