From Survival to Significance: The 5 Stages of Success In Any Area of Your Life
You might not know my story yet, but… I’ve come a long, long way.
I wasn’t born into success.
I was a very troubled teenager, big-time. In and out of jail a few times. Rehab too.
But I pulled myself out from some bad places, took responsibility for my life, taught myself to code, and started building software companies.
I really struggled, until at 28 a US firm acquired my business and I found a real taste of success.
My journey taught me that your thoughts, your beliefs, whatever it is that makes you YOU will influence your business’ bottom line.
You’ve got to know your relationship with success
You’re on a journey. We all are. And the more you know about you are on your journey, the clearer you can see your next steps.
In this week’s video, I want to help you see with clarity you are at by looking at the 5 Levels From Survival To Significance and mapping them onto my own journey.
