True Success comes only from the shift of Awakening

By: Daria Boissonnas, Certified Reconnective Healing Practitioner

Do you seek success? Do you have a dream? The good old dictionary says success is the favorable end of an effort. It means reaching a goal or finishing a task. In a nutshell, done = success.


Done won’t get you your dreams, however. Sure, completion is important, but if all you did was finish the tasks your busy life demands, would you be a success? Would you have truly succeeded at life? What is missing in this equation?


Success Comes in Two Flavors: Temporary and True


Most of the time when we say “success,” we mean an idea more like the dictionary’s second definition: the attainment of wealth, achievement, position, bliss, fame, honor, etc. This is more than finishing a task. It goes beyond reacting to your life, beyond just getting by, and beyond coloring inside the lines. It’s not the kind of success you have to repeat to keep moving forward, like doing laundry is.


This kind of success is an achievement! It takes you to a new level. Not only do you finish something, but it is bigger and different than what you had before. Maybe you want to find the love of your life, live your ideal lifestyle in style, heal yourself of pain and bad habits, or achieve a big goal like making a million bucks before you turn 40. True success does this in a meaningful, permanent way. What does your heart desire?


To qualify as True Success, an achievement must have three traits:


1. It came from inside YOU. It began as a decision, a dream, or a choice. You didn’t follow or just “go along” with someone else’s example or dictates. You chose to reach for this, and you chose to take steps to implement it.


2. It’s a new direction. True success takes you off the path, out of your well-worn habits of thinking and doing. You change the direction you would have gone, had you kept doing what you were doing. Your trajectory changes. Wonderful things happen you’d never expected or asked for.


3. It sticks. Something shifts and you can’t go back. You don’t lose it again. Spiritually, you have “realized” it, really gotten it on all levels in a way that changes who you are. From there, you can easily help others achieve something similar. That’s true success.


Because true success happens naturally when you advance in your life’s journey of awakening. True success and awakening describe the same upshift, the same expansion. Actively walking your life’s journey means leaving the old ways behind and rising in an upward spiral to greater and greater potential and possibility — for you, your life, and your loved ones around you.


When you don’t reach for true success, you have temporary success. Whatever you just did, you will likely need to do again, or something similar, over and over. You will stay in about the same place or advance slowly. If you do achieve what looks like True Success, it will slip through your fingers again.


If it doesn’t stick, it wasn’t True Success. You didn’t shift.


What to Do to Truly Succeed


True success flows naturally from our true nature, which grows, expands positively, loves, serves, and evolves into higher and higher Potential ways of being. When you learn how that process — the spiritual journey — works, you can reach for the True Success and lift all of us up into a better way of being.


Whatever your goals, this process requires the 7 Tasks of Awakening.

They are:


1. Know Yourself

2. Build Your Base

3. Explore Possibility in the World

4. Be the Change (Practice/Train)

5. Move Beyond Doubt

6. Let Go of Resistance

7. Step It Up (make the next Decision)

So ask yourself: Do I want to get by? Do I want to succeed in doing what I did yesterday… again?


Or do I want to dream and move forward into new exciting territory that has a higher Potential for wealth, wellness and wisdom for me, and through me for others?


THAT is the core result of Awakening. You can’t uplevel without Awakening. Awakening creates true success.


Are you ready to learn how to shift into true success, over and over, in ANY situation in your life? Make sure you’re working in all 7 tasks, above.


You have it in you. You have a valuable gift for the world to share. Your nature is to grow and expand and help others. You can do this!!

Because true success happens naturally when you advance in your life’s journey of awakening. True success and awakening describe the same upshift, the same expansion. Actively walking your life’s journey means leaving the old ways behind and rising in an upward spiral to greater and greater potential and possibility — for you, your life, and your loved ones around you.
