The Simple Truth About How to Create Success and Fulfillment

What is true success? How do we get there? We are successful and creating more success when we are doing what is right and in line for ourselves in the moment.

Each one of us comes into this life with an essential awareness, with our own sense of understanding and knowing. We all have talents and insights that we add to the human, eternal “soup” that is the combination of all of us. The degree to which we live with that understanding and knowing, and act on it, is the degree to which we achieve success.

Some of us will live in poverty and move ourselves to a life of wealth and prosperity. Some will be born with wealth and learn how to live with and manage it. Some will devote themselves to the care of others. Others will develop manual skills. Each one of us is necessary and important in life.True success is defined by how well we stay true to our individual paths.

During my radio interview with Sean Adams (http://bit.ly/9aHp5I), NCAA All American athlete and motivational speaker (www.seanadams.net), Sean discussed 5 essential questions that are important to consider for success in all aspects of our lives:
1. Who am I and who can I be?
2. What do I want in this life? What's important to me?
3. How am I affecting the lives of the people around me?
4. What do I want on my tombstone?
5. What is the price I'm willing to pay?

So how do you know if you’re successful? Evaluate how you feel right now. Right here. Are you doing what feels right? Are you feeling a nagging pressure to do something but you aren’t doing it? Or, are you nagging yourself to do more, when you’re actually doing too much and feeling exhausted and undernourished energetically? Find the balance.

The key to finding this balance is to be right here, at this point in time, being your true essential self. Moment by moment be you, and notice how you feel and what you want to do next. Don’t force yourself to do anything that feels inappropriate to your goals or essential self. Trust your feelings and knowing and do what feels right in the moment. When you do what is best for you in the moment you will be fulfilling your destiny and that is the key to success.

How do you get in touch with the essential You? How do you learn to notice what feels right? Here are some tips to help you:

Meditate. Yes, that again. It’s extremely difficult to be aware and present unless you do. Through meditation you’ll come to know who you are and the difference between you and your mind/emotions/body.
Take time to relax and watch. Breathe.
Notice if you’re aware and present, or lost in the moment. Bring yourself back to center. Pay attention to what’s happening now.
Notice if you feel you’re where you need to be, doing what needs to be done. This is a “gut feeling,” not a mind evaluation. When you’re where you need to be it will just feel RIGHT. There’s no way to explain this, other than notice it. It may not always feel comfortable, but if you pay attention you’ll know whether or not you’re where you need to be.
If you’re not where you need to be, stop what you’re doing immediately. Meditate for a moment. Re-center yourself and then do what feels right.
Open your heart to feeling the love and support that surrounds you and open your heart for others to feel your love and support.

These are simple steps and yet very profoundly meaningful. The truth is simple. When you are present and on your path, doing what feels right, you’re successful and creating more success. Honor your path and what’s true for you and you will be fulfilled and successful. You will successfully be the best YOU that you can be, doing what YOU need to be doing. It’s that simple.
