Defining Success Beyond Profit -What Lights You Up Inside? “There are different ways that we can be striving for success in our lives.”Rae Irelan  Do you feel like you're continually searching for holistic success and the feeling of being fulfilled? And no matter what level of progress, you still desire for more. The truth is that every person in this world defines success differently. But sometimes it all boils down to what lights you up. In this week's episode, Rae Irelan talks about defining success beyond profit. Part One of ‘Defining Success Beyond Profit [What Lights You Up Inside?]’ There are different ways that we can look at success and define success, and also different ways that we can be striving for success in our lives. To see it from a healthy perspective, you must have that inner drive and focus. Maybe you've had a lot of experiences where you were able to hit high numbers, achieving your career goals, and you've accomplished your goals in general, but you still feel like the same person you were yesterday like nothing changed. It's not always about getting the quantity. It's also about quality. “Connecting to what lights you up is a great starting point for your adult self to begin to remember your bliss.” - Rae Irelan (08:16-08:23) A lot of times, you can get so excited about the results that you're creating. But the bigger question is, what are the results you're creating for other people? Similar to food if you're hungry, you eat what's right in front of you, even if it doesn't guarantee that you will be delighted. The funny thing is sometimes you will eat a bag of chips, and then realize that you actually want a full meal of protein, veggies, and carbs. And so, you're left feeling unsatisfied. It's just like success. You want to find something that can be soul-fulfilling. And in each moment, you are growing, shifting, and changing. Start with an awareness of what you are truly wanting and needing. It's imperative to differentiate these two in this step. What is necessary for you to be living right now, and what is your desire that would make life more juicy, fun, and playful? It's great to take extra time before going after something that isn't genuinely aligned without questioning it. Take time in this process to understand where you sit, and then you'll be able to make informed decisions from there. Part Two of ‘Defining Success Beyond Profit [What Lights You Up Inside?] Take aligned and inspired action. And that's where you get to do that thing that you want to do. And that is really what's going to create the most success in your life, in the most holistic success. That's where you come back to your bliss. You're of service in a way that is great for others and yourself. Once you understand the basics, you see that success is the sandwich between what lights you up and bliss is on both sides of it. If you can do this in every area of your life, you'll achieve greater success in a way that is personally, professionally, and financially fulfilling. “You want to find something that can be soul-fulfilling.” - Rae Irelan (05:43-05:47) Every person is guilty of defining success, depending on the amount of money they have at some point in their life. But what are you willing to exchange for that success? How can you get into this place where you're living with a fulfilling soul? And that's a good starting point for success. It's crucial to connect with what lights you up. This way, you are becoming more aware and understanding while being in an empowered state. When you are lit up, then you can make decisions based on what is truly going to be of service. When you're a kid, what used to light you up? Was it reading a good book? Was it riding your bike through the neighborhood? Was it playing games? Was it drawing? This is a great starting point for your adult self to begin to remember your bliss and how to tap into that.
