Guarantee Your Success by Building Your Own Success Plan

11/07/19 • 27 min

Success doesn’t happen by accident, it needs a plan.

You and I both know how much time and effort it takes to achieve our goals. We spend time setting goals, resolutions, and chanting affirmations that we can do it! But the reality is that many people get derailed by obstacles- mostly of our own making. This makes achieving your goals more painful than it should.

But there is a way, that is scientifically researched and tested to supercharge your success.

Today I’m going to share why goals alone fall short and why creating a success plan will supercharge your achievement. This can help in all areas of life, career, entrepreneurship, and home.

So if you’re ready to supercharge your success, today’s show is a must-listen. I will share the why’s behind creating a success plan and also give you the step by step guide to creating your own success plan.

Biggest Take-Aways You Don’t Want To Miss:
(02:52) So who does this plan apply to? Both individuals and teams can use this to help them be successful.
(04:49) The first and most important thing is to visualize your ideal endpoint. This is a little different than goal setting.
(08:23) We all know goal setting and we know we all need to get to this end state. Well folks, now's where the twist comes because now that you've got that ideal end state, I want you to sit in it for just a second and think, Oh God, how wonderful is that? And now here is the twist...
(10:25) What obstacles could come about that I would have to overcome to hit my ideal state?
16:11) So once I know what stands in my way, now that I know what the obstacles are, I have to create the plan to overcome those obstacles.
(20:47) The next question I have, and this is I'd say even a bonus question on a success plan and for me it's been one of the things that has really tilted my success.

Upping the Odds On Getting The Job You Want

Yay! It is finally here. I am excited to share some rule-breaking advice to help YOU to have a REMARKABLE CAREER.

Our first episode does just that. Today I share some deviant tips and tricks to get you in front of decision-makers and land that job you have always wanted.
Not currently searching for a job? Listen in any way, these tips include great advice on connecting with people and growing your network as well. Sometimes the best time to network is before you need the job.
Let’s get started:
Passion and People are the way to get a job. Show up passionately! Be discerning in your efforts. And go for it with everything you have.
You and I both know how frustrating it is to apply for a job and then hear crickets. You spend hours, months, or even years trying to find the perfect job for you. Then suddenly there it is posted! You are beyond excited, you polish your resume, and hit the apply button.
Then you pray. Right, that is the only thing left to do?
Not exactly! Today I will cover the tips and tricks to get you past the gatekeeper and get you noticed, so you can get that job you have always dreamed of.

We will cover why doing this is so important, and the steps that you can take to get yourself noticed.

Biggest Take-Aways You Don’t Want To Miss:
(02:10) The question I get is I keep applying for great jobs. They're jobs that I'd be absolutely perfect for, and I'm hearing crickets in response. I know I'm remarkably better than the other candidates and I'm still not hearing anything in return.
(04:26) The good news is there are ways to raise your rates of job hunting success up to 39%.
(09:10) Be the type of person that people want to refer.
(10:04) What to do if you don't have the referral and really want the role.
(15:39) If you are in the job-hunting mode, it is probably worth paying for LinkedIn premium. It does give you additional information.
(18:30) If you don't love the job, you don't think it's an amazing space for you to be. Stop, quit applying to 4,000 jobs and hoping something sticks.

Company Culture - Are You A Fit?

Company culture; the current hot buzzword of companies.
It is used as a carrot to attract top talent. And as a stick to use as an excuse as to why someone didn’t get the job. It is a bit all over the place.

What does company culture really mean? And what is the impact on you? How is it defined? And most importantly, how can you evaluate to know if you want to be apart of that team?

Today we explore company culture and how you align with it or not — no stuffing you into a box, like an oversized down comforter.

This is not an episode to tell you to change who you are to fit in! On the contrary, it is about you becoming clear on who you are and figuring out if the company you work for or may want to work with is in alignment with you.

Today I will share with you how to evaluate that very elusive thing: culture fit. I will give you some sure-fire ways to compare you and the company. Including my super-secret, favorite question to determine the culture of an organization. Hint it isn’t, “What is the company culture like?” All that gets you is the same dish of tuna that they serve everyone, and it usually stinks.

Check Out These Highlights:

(01:11) Corporate culture is defined by two things. It is defined by the values of the corporation and by their voice.
02:03) Living our values, and exercising them every day, is when we as human beings flourish. Learn how to define your values.
(05:14) So now the flip side for a corporation, how do you look at a corporation's values?
(07:18) What does voice have to do with culture? It's kind of a weird way to define it. I'm always looking at things from a little bit different perspective. To me, voice is the energy of the organization and a lot of ways it's the how they show up.
(10:43) I want to make sure as I go to an organization, I'm able to speak in that voice because if not, I'm really capping myself.
(12:08) So here's the nugget for today and it's how do you actually find this information and how do you evaluate it? It is my secret weapon question for finding out about corporate culture.
