Determine what success means to you personally and write it down. Whatever challenges one faces, it is always worth it to align one’s career with one's life goals. Helping others achieve their dreams is a fulfilling thing. Digital entrepreneurs need patience, seeing business as an ongoing process spanning multiple stages before achieving success – not just one certification or product. Avoid resentment by not seeing work as oppositional to life but as a part of it. Set metrics that matter and focus on progress rather than outcomes. Embody success before achieving it. Doing that will lead to your growth.   "Do what matters. It means you’ve got to choose what’s great for you - you define your success." —  Amanda Kaufman   Send the word LEAP-LIFT to Amanda on Instagram at @theamandakaufman to get her step-by-step LEAP System for how to build your own business as an expert and coach.   Connect with Amanda Kaufman:  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ChatwithAmandaKaufman/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theamandakaufman/  Website: https://thecoachesplaza.com/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCal10PPHo1S59hQmOLgCF3A  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amandackaufman/     CONNECT WITH CHABIDAYE: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chabidaye.ramnath.3 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chabidaye/ Website: https://leadandlift.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chabidayejaglalramnath/     Show notes by Podcastologist: Justine Talla   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
