The Identity of Being Successful
What is in the way of people experiencing fulfilment even when they have some measure of being successful?
This is the guiding question of today's conversation with Chris Jackson. Chris is the Co-Owner of Kinetic Life. He shines a light on his clients' career path by being the project manager in their lives. He brings his expertise as an athlete to orient his practice around the question 'What does it take to win the championship of your own life?
We explore three ways in which fulfilment is missing even in spite of people experiencing some measure of being successful.
- What we see is missing is at its core clarity, clarity about who we need to be to experience fulfilment.
- We explore the tension between being addicted to success and letting go of your edge. The edge both drives people to produce extraordinary results and it can be in tension with experiencing fulfilment, due to a lack of love and belonging.
- We end by going deeper into how the cliche of unconditional love has created a converse reality which leads to people so frequently missing fulfilment regardless of their success in other areas.
This episode is also filled with key takeaways in the form of sports analogies. Here's a few to look out for if you are as sports crazed as Chris and I.
We look at:
- the 4 quarter championship strategy.
- the importance of discarding your BRULE filled rulebook filled with a playbook.
- the relevance of your offensive and defensive line, as well as home base for a holistic vision of success.
