Success: Why Women Don’t Need To Compete

Success: Why Women Don’t Need To Compete

You are not in competition with others unless you put yourself there. However, if you do, be warned that competing can be a huge pitfall that takes your eyes off your true purpose and potential. It stands in direct conflict with succeeding at being all of the amazing woman you already are.

When you take the competition approach, you actually step outside of your true potential. You place your abilities in competition with someone else who is unique in their own way. You might even find yourself chasing their potential rather than your own. How do you expect to truly succeed while pursuing someone else’s dream?

It’s almost like saying, “I’m not good enough” or “I have something to prove” while all the while you have incredible potential as the amazing woman you already are. Who do you need to prove this to? Is it to others or is it really to prove your own value to yourself?

Competition really has no place in the woman who has decided to succeed at inviting her true potential forward. Her motivation is no longer competing with others. Instead, it is rising up to the standard of the unique greatness which is already inside of her.

On a personal level, this means recognizing that all of the positive desires of your heart, all those dreams you’ve secretly wished for, are in the realm of possibility for you to invite forward. It means taking a leap of faith and accepting you already have what it takes to get what you really want.

Your greatest desire is actually tied to your true potential. Those desires are in your heart because somewhere within you is the ability to create what you’ve always wanted to accomplish. You may have taken some of those gifts you have as being pointless, but they are given to you for a reason.

In relation to others, succeeding at being yourself is a far higher road to travel on. All of us have probably commented on how hard it can be when working with other women. Can you imagine what it would be like if we let go of the competition and invited each other’s true potential to come forward instead?

Today is the best time to begin. I invite you to open up to possibility and pursue your own unique potential. You may be amazed to discover how your passion and purpose are fanned into flame as you allow yourself to do the things you’ve always loved to do. Imagine how empowering it could be to trust you have the ability to decide the best path of success for you.

Who cares about how you measure up to anyone else? You have an incredible life waiting for you that reflects the true desires and purpose in your heart. Go for it!

Are your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website

Tami Szabo
(Visit Tami's Website) I coach Business Women and Entrepreneurs because I am passionate about seeing women achieve amazing things when they fully accept their true abilities. Business gives women a great opportunity to express their passions and purpose in a way that also brings financial rewards. I believe you are highly important as the foundation of your business. As you grow and unleash your true potential, you enable your business to do the same. You also empower those you lead. I do this personally as I coach women and write articles inviting women to step into greater personal success. I also enjoy practicing my business skills on my latest adventure of opening a Cappuccino Bar and Sports Consignment Store. I believe in living fully alive and making the most of every moment. I even have my own Coach! Of course, life is always a work in progress, but I keep moving forward. I do this happily in the beautiful Rocky Mountains of B.C. with my teacher husband and two feline companions.
