Successs DNA
A”

YYou may be familiar witth “core values” or having “internaal drivers” – I call them your Success DNA,
wwhich is the unique set of Success Markers thaat you posseess. They’ree the unique beliefs and values
tthat motivatte you and drive
d your decisions
d (offten withou t you even realizing it)..

W
While most people have a basic un nderstandingg of what thhese “Succeess Drivers” are, very feew
p
people everr take the time to actuaally discoverr what theirr own actually are.

GGetting clear on what drives


d you is one of the FASTEST wways to breaak through iin your busiiness,
aand become e one of the
e “Top 5%” entreprene eurs. Clarityy equals MA
ASSIVE pow
wer.

WWhat I can tell


t you is thhis – gettingg clear on yo
our personaal Success DDrivers will n
not only proovide
yyou a “comp pass” to ma
ake your decisions, it will
w also alloow you to feeel more po owerful and
cconfident in
n everythingg that you do

ppersonally and

The Power
P Off “Success Markerrs”
H
Here are som
me of the ke
ey reasons why
w identifyying your Suuccess DNA is so powerrful.

• Your Success Ma arkers give you purposse, understaanding and clarity


u’re not cleaar on what your
If you y values are, you oftten end up living the vaalues of oth her
peop ple around you
y – leading you to a sense
s of em ptiness, connfusion and monotony.. On the
other hand, whe en you beingg to live youur life aligneed with yourr values, theey help bring you
purpose, directio on wholene ess, satisfacttion and a seense of clarrity.

• Theyy promote greater


g coop
peration and joy in you ur relationshhips
As I’ll show you in a minute, understanding your oown values aallow you to o be clear ab
bout
whatt you will accept and toolerate in rellationships. Being clear on your owwn values aallow
you to
t attract annd seek out people with h similar vallues, allowin
ng you to sp
pend more ttime
feelin
ng understoood and acce epted, as oppposed to sttruggling aggainst what seems like
“difficult” personalities.

• Theyy prevent yoou from makking bad ch hoices


Oncee you get cle
ear on your values, the things that matter mosst to you beecome much h more
obvio
ous and easy to identifyy. As a result, you makke less decisions that en
nd up confliccting
with your valuess, which lead
ds to unhapppiness and constant frustrations.

c false hopes – setting yoursself up for ffailure. You’’ll make deccisions
and lead your liffe in a more deliberate way, becauuse you’ll haave a strong sense of claarity.

• Gettiing clear onn them make es life simpler


Quite nce you’re clear on yourr values, lifee gets simpler, becausee you’re not
e simply, on
consttantly facedd with anxiety or torn between ma king choices. By using your markeers as a
comp pass to decisions you need to make e, the answ wer becomess easier to ssee. In the eend, the
mostt successful people are those who make the m most decisions, and thiss tool gives yyou that
abilitty to make decisions
d muuch more quickly and eeffectively.

FFor a long time, I had he

Y
Years ago, I was presen n opportunity to do so
nted with an ome work on
n my own vvalues .. and
d the “a-
h
has” that I received
r fro
om learning them was astonishing
a g.

LLet me give you one of my personaal experiencces as a greaat example o of how gettting clear on

n no particular order, simply because they movve around in priority deepending on


TThose are in n what
eelement of my
m life we’rre talking abbout. But th
he point is, tthese are my 5 Success Markers.

WWhen I spen nt the time to


t learn what they are and these 5 things emeerged at thee top of my list, I
ssuddenly reaalized why it was that some
s of the people andd relationships in my liffe seemed so
eeffortless .. while
w otherrs always felt like a lot of
o work and struggle.

AAt the time, I had a couple of friend


ds that I wo
ould often scchedule to ggo and meeet for lunch, drinks
oor whateverr it was. Witthout excep ption, I would arrive on time, but they would u usually show
w up
late – whethher it was a few minute es or even half an hour,, the one thing I could ccount on waas they
ccouldn’t be trusted to be
b one time.

WWhen they did
d finally sh
how up and d I commentted on them m being late,, their respo
onse would be
aalong the lin
nes of, “wha
at’s the big deal?
d It’s on
nly a few m inutes!”

It really both
hered me annd seemed odd I couldn’t just ‘get over it’ .. until I figured
d out what m
my
SSuccess Marrkers were.

YYou see, whhen someon ne violates your


y values (often withhout even kknowing it), it creates a very
nnegative, de
eep violatioon inside of you. If you’re not awaare of what yyour own vaalues truly aare, this
ccan create frustration or
o confusionn – because you can’t fi gure out whhy you respond to seem mingly
innocent situations and d experiencees.

HHave you evver been rea


ally upset and angered
d by someth hing that waas done to yyou, yet you
u
ccouldn’t eve
en figure ou
ut WHY it puushed your buttons so much? Thiis is what I’mm talking about.

SSo when I re ple show up late and thaat’s a violation of my vaalue of


ealized that when peop
AAccountability, it gave me
m a comple
etely differe
ent perspecctive.

AAnd, here’s the powerfful part – it allowed mee to deal witth the challeenge, and actually deep
pen my
rrelationship with those people insttead of caussing me to ppush them oout of my liffe.

I was able to
o sit down with
w them, anda explain why it bothhered me so o much. Theey finally
uunderstood that this waas beyond something
s that I shouldd just ‘get ovver’. I told tthem, I wan
nted
tthem in my life and they were important to me, and that I needed th hem to respect my valu ues.

TThey apprecciated the coonversation use they finaally knew it really WAS important tto me,
n, and becau
tthey made an
a effort to be on time – which maade me feel heard and rrespected, w which is what a
hhealthy relationship is all
a about.

BBy learning what


w your own
o Successs Markers are, you can then consid der them wh hen you’re m
making
ddecisions in your busineess (and in your
y life) to make sure you are working in aliggnment withh your
vvalues, inste
ead of in con
nflict with th
hem.

N
Now, you may be expeccting more “business
“ building” insiight and straategies at th
his point in the
p
program, buut whether you
y realize iti or not at this
t point, ggetting clearr on your ow wn values is truly
o
one of the little-known secrets that the world’’s most succcessful peopple have maastered.

O
Operating without

S Markers is a litttle bit like trying to op

piece of machinery witthout the instruction manual.

YYou just randomly push
