How Do You Measure Success?

There's often a gap when you measure yourself against an idealized future. It's easy to fall into the trap of comparing your progress to that of others. A performance mindset can lead to frustration, and stress - particularly when your goals have not aligned with the authentic desires of your heart.

On the other hand, the gain strategy keeps the ideals on your mind map in focus. The plan is to measure the progress of your actions (gains) from where you are now relative to where you came from on the way to your ideal future. This perspective is a set-up for wins.
