In this episode, we answer a listener’s series of questions on success.

 

The true meaning of success is ultimately up to you.

  • Don’t allow others to define what success looks like in your life.

 

Most people have tunnel vision when they think of success.

  • They think success means money, cars, planes, boats, big houses, and travel.
  • They don’t think about things like their legacy, level of influence, and ability to give to those in need.
  • To make sure you don’t have tunnel vision, think in terms of what it looks like to live a successful life.

 

Success isn’t a destination—it’s a progressive realization of a worthwhile dream or goal.

  • Discipline is needed to keep going through the sometimes-repetitive process of learning what you have to learn in order to do something with excellence.

 

Tune in to hear how one of Andy’s mentors describes living a successful life.
