The article "What Is Your Legacy?" is about attraction, it has been written by Karyn Greenstreet.
During a recent speech, I told the audience that my mission was to empower the self-employed to succeed.
Instantly a hand shot up in the audeince. “What’s your definition of success?” I smiled to myself -- I love it when they ask this question! There are as many definitions of success as there are self employed pesrons. Success could be “hitting my financial goals,” or “becoming a nationally-known speaker.” But I challenge you to add one more component to your definition of success: What will you leave behind as your lasting legacy?Every single one of us leaevs a legacy. Your very existence has an impact on the world whether you intend it or not.
So, how do you want to be remembered? Ask yourself, “If I died last month ...”What would I want persons to say about me?How have I helped other persons? Have I done my best, given my all? Did my life have meaning and purpose? Working towards a legacy in both your buisness and personal life keeps you motivated and performing at your peak.
It gives a higher purpose to your life and work.
Your work has an edge and energy because you’re no longer just “doing work,” you’re building a legcay. Abvoe all, it helps you share the fullest of what you're.
