Want Success and Fulfilment? Follow This Hierarchy to Success

Forget the dream of quitting your 9-to-5 and living on a beach. True fulfillment, according to this article, comes from a more nuanced approach to success. Here's the breakdown:

  • Notables, Listen Up: This framework moves beyond just chasing money (although financial security is important!). It emphasizes achieving time freedom, control over your work, making a positive impact, and ultimately, living a life on your terms.

  • The Hierarchy of Needs... for Entrepreneurs: Imagine Maslow's pyramid but for business owners. The foundation is financial stability, followed by securing your time, then control, impact, and finally, freedom.

  • Stuck in a Rut? Here's How to Climb Out: Getting stuck at a level is easy. Don't get so fixated on making money that you forget to delegate and free up your time. Likewise, with more time, are you using it for things you actually enjoy? Feeling frustrated or dissatisfied is often a sign you need to move to the next level.

  • Self-awareness is Key: Regularly assess your position on this hierarchy. Ask yourself: Am I happy? Am I using my time well? How can I make a bigger impact? By reflecting on these questions, you can identify roadblocks and keep moving forward.

  • The Top Isn't Always the Finish Line: Reaching "freedom" doesn't guarantee lasting happiness. Some sell their businesses and feel a void. They lose the purpose and impact they had before. Define what true success means for YOU. Do you crave the daily grind of running a business, or is the freedom to pursue other passions more important?

Why this matters: This is your chance to redefine what success looks like in your career. Don't be fooled by the allure of quick money. Use this framework to build a fulfilling and impactful path, whether that's through your own business or another avenue.


Ever Feel Drained After Spending Time with Someone? They Might Be an Energy Vampire!

Do your social interactions leave you feeling zapped of energy instead of recharged? You might be dealing with an energy vampire.

What is an Energy Vampire?

An energy vampire is someone who sucks the emotional life out of you. They can be negative, critical, attention-seeking, or manipulative. These interactions leave you feeling emotionally drained and exhausted.

Spot the Signs:

  • They constantly complain and focus on the worst.

  • They thrive on drama and chaos.

  • They guilt-trip or emotionally manipulate you.

  • Conversations revolve around them and their needs.

  • They're insensitive and inconsiderate of your feelings.

Protect Yourself:

  • Set boundaries! Limit contact or politely decline invitations that leave you drained.

  • Adjust your expectations. You can't change them, but you can control how much energy you give.

  • Learn to say no. Don't feel obligated to give your time or attention if it leaves you feeling bad.

  • Don't get sucked into negativity. Avoid arguments and keep interactions neutral.

  • Recharge your batteries! Prioritize activities that bring you joy and replenish your energy.

Why this matters: As a Millennial, you value strong connections. But emotional vampires can leave you feeling isolated and depleted. By recognizing the signs and setting boundaries, you can protect your well-being and build healthy, energizing relationships.

Remember, your mental health is important. Don't let energy vampires steal your shine!
