A Love Letter to Success

This is a personal post but one I felt compelled to write. Whether we know it or not we all have a relationship with success, what it means to us and what we are willing to do to achieve it. Over my 20+ years in the world of high performance I have learnt a lot about my personal relationship with success. 

With that said, I love music and was recently listening to a song that captured the battle I believe we all face as high achievers in our relationship with success. So here are the lyrics to that song (I changed one word) titled "Better off without you". All credit to the artist Becky Hill. 

I feel like these lyrics are the high achievers version of "A Love Letter To Success"...

I thought my world was crumbling, when I woke up and you weren’t in my grasp. And I was left here wondering how, you could walk away and never turn back.

Tried to right all your wrongs, I never thought that I’d be lost. But I found the truth, I was searching for me in you.

Now I’m better off without you, and it’s finally clear to see. That the person I was missing, it’s not you, it’s me.

Now I’m better off without you, and I’ve never felt so free. Because the person I was missing, it’s not you, it’s me.

I tried so hard to please you, but nothing that I did would work. Oh, and all the things that we’ve been through, now it’s time to start putting me first.

Tried to right all your wrongs, I never thought that I’d be lost. But I found the truth, I was searching for me in you.

Now I’m better off without you, and it’s finally clear to see. That the person I was missing, it’s not you, it’s me.

Now I’m better off without you, and I’ve never felt so free. Because the person I was missing, it’s not you, it’s me.

I thought my world was crumbling, when I woke up and you weren’t in my grasp. And I was left here wondering how, you could walk away and never turn back.

Now I’m better off without you, and I’ve never felt so free. Because the person I was missing, it’s not you, it’s me.

If I had to sum up this song and my relationship with success it would be this...If I am not enough without you, I will never be enough when I have you...

I BELIEVE IN YOU!
