Success is not a coincidence, but the result of making the right decisions. And you can only make these decisions if you keep asking yourself questions, reflect on yourself and your actions and learn from past mistakes. This is a process that you should go through continuously in order to hold on to your success. The quality of your success and your career depends crucially on the questions you ask yourself regularly. In the following article, you will find inspiration to guide you on this path.
1. what is my next goal?
You can imagine most people's professional life as a mountain tour. To get to the top, you need a rough plan and must know the paths that will take you there. If you hike without a map, you will get lost. It is therefore all the more important that you know the stages of your success and have specific goals. By the way: not every goal has to be measurable. "More self-love" or "happiness" are just as worthwhile goals.
2. what happens if I do it differently this time?
Stagnation is one of the most common success killers. Are there things in your company that you do because you've always done them? Then it's high time to change something. Think about what would happen if you changed direction next time. Might this not open up completely new opportunities?
3. is my time management optimal?
Time is the neuralgic point in the curve of success. It is only available to a limited extent and must be used optimally. Time and again, managers and executives waste time because they do not set priorities or have not learned to delegate tasks. We would be happy to help you improve your time management as part of a coaching session.
4. how can I take time out?
In business, everyone likes to be in the fast lane. Striving for success is the driving force behind being available day and night, checking your emails over Sunday breakfast and suddenly working 70 hours a week. Every battery runs out at some point. To prevent this from happening in the first place, you should take time out regularly and in good time. Practice meditation, join a yoga group or write fixed times in your diary when you can read a book in your favorite armchair. Success consists of two components: Phases of intensive work and phases of relaxation.
5. what can I learn from others?
Children learn by taking their cue from others. This learning process never stops at any point in life. Successful people have usually not invented the wheel themselves, but have also taken inspiration from others. It is worth looking out for role models and other success stories. At the same time, you can learn from the mistakes that others have made. But: inspiration does not mean copying. Learn without simply copying.
Success is an important prerequisite for your happiness in life. This is not primarily about financial success or climbing the career ladder. You can also be successful if you achieve your life goals, if you are independent, happy and free.
We would be happy to support you with this as part of an individual coaching session.
