Which Kind of Success Do You Want?

There are two kinds of success - 
1. Success
2. Deeply fulfilling, joyous success

Both have very different paths and outcomes. 

In the first, you only play the Outer Game. In the second, you play both the Outer Game and the Inner Game, along with the Game That Connects the Two.

The first is achieved with velocity, like the hare. The second requires patience, like the tortoise. The first is a sprint. The second is a marathon. 

I laughed my head off when I read a senior executive lament in a book yesterday - I hate personal growth. Such an echo of my experience of my own journey, and of the journeys of others I walk along with.

The first is about being an ostrich and putting your head in the sand. The second is about being willing to go to places one is scared to go to, being willing to look in the mirror and see things one would rather not, being willing to hold oneself responsible for all the mess in the world, being willing to acknowledge and own one's own greatness, and live in the expression of one's inner Light.

The Outer Game is that of Business Excellence through which you lead your organization from good to great, making a dent in the Universe, making that huge difference in the world through the work you do.

The Inner Game is that of Leadership Depth through which you journey inside to become aware of your own fears and transform each one into love.

The Game that Connects the Two is that of Craft Mastery through which become the master of your craft, the world's best in your industry, the thought leader in your domain.

The three Games are really three journeys you undertake to connect to your genius, to leave footprints in the sand of time, to live the purpose of your life. 

The outcome of playing all the three games is having your Wheel of Life in perfect balance - deeply fulfilling successful career, loving harmonious relationships at home and at work, happy responsible kids with their genius joyfully expressed, nourishing nurturing me-time, making a difference.

The interesting bit is that each of these 5 areas of your Wheel of Life are like a juggler's balls up in the air. Either all five will be up in the air or all will come crashing on the ground progressively, some point in time.

If you are going through a midlife crisis, fall on your knees and thank the heavens for a loving reminder for you to play all the three games to be on the path for the second kind of success.

Wishing you the courage to listen to the the silent voice in your head and find your way home.

Love, Jyoti.
