In his new book — Why People Fail —- Siimon Reynolds addresses 16 obstacles to success and how to overcome them. Today I’d like to talk about one of these obstacles. Siimon starts the book with the big picture and (understandably) the first obstacle to success.He has defined this first obstacle as Unclear Purpose.
Siimon makes the point that the clearer we are about what we want the more likely we are to achieve it. There are many applications to this lesson. Let’s start with work:
- What is the purpose for your job?
- What is it that you’re paid to do and to produce?
If you’re in your own business:
- What is the purpose of your business?
- What is the purpose for which you are putting in hours and hours of hard work?
And, there’s the BIG QUESTION —- What is your life’s purpose? Have you ever worked on trying to get that one clear? Lucky you if you have and you’re working on that path. On 18 May Siimon is my guest on BOOKED for lunch – freewebinars with the world’s leading authors and thinkers. During a one-hour webinar he’ll explain why having a clear purpose is a great way to avoid failure and he’ll give us some easy ways to get more clarity on our goals. He’ll also tell us how to get our brain to be an ally when it comes to creating the life we want – in business and personally.
BOOKED for Lunch webinars are free and brought to you by the Australian Businesswomen’s Network and GotoWebinar – Webinars made easy.
