Success is more than just a destination—it's a personal journey influenced by our experiences, values, and the world around us. Given the drastic changes and challenges faced by families and pre-teens in the wake of the pandemic, it’s essential to rethink and redefine what success truly means. Embracing new behaviors and mindsets can lead to personal empowerment and a more fulfilling life. In this guide, we will delve into practical strategies to reevaluate your definition of success and foster your personal growth.


The New Moon in Scorpio and an article I read yesterday about the psychological and emotional effects of the pandemic on parents and kids served as the inspiration for my piece. Attacks by young people on teachers are on the rise here in Texas and other states.

Navigating the path to personal success.

1. Exploring Your Definition of Success


The first step in your personal growth is understanding what success means to you. In today’s fast-moving world, it's easy to get sidetracked by comparing yourself to others. Instead, ask yourself what truly matters.


Take a moment to journal your thoughts. Pose questions like:


  • What achievements fill me with healthy pride?

  • How do I find happiness in my day-to-day life?

  • Who do I admire, and what traits do they have that inspire me?


For example, a student might feel proud of consistently helping their classmates in math, while someone in the workforce might take pride in their ability to mentor new employees. Defining your own success provides a solid base for your future path.


2. Setting Empowering Goals and Intentions


Having a clear personal definition of success makes setting goals easier and more meaningful. Focus on growth rather than just results. This will create a more satisfying journey.


Follow the SMART criteria when crafting your goals:


  • Specific: Clearly outline what you want to achieve.

  • Measurable: Decide how you will track your progress.

  • Achievable: Make sure your goals are realistic and attainable.

  • Relevant: Ensure your goals reflect your personal values.

  • Time-bound: Set a deadline for your objectives.


For example, instead of a vague goal like “I want to excel in my studies," try something specific like, "I will increase my science grade by 10% this semester by studying two hours each week.” This clear approach not only helps you track your progress but also boosts your motivation.



3. Creating a Roadmap for Personal Growth and Empowerment

With your goals established, designing a roadmap is next. A clear plan offers guidance and can simplify your personal growth journey.


Break your goals down into specific 1,2 steps. Consider the following:


  • Identify Resources: What tools or assistance do you need? This could be books, online courses, or a supportive mentor.

  • Establish Checkpoints: Create specific dates to review your progress. This keeps you accountable and allows for adjustments when needed.


For instance, if your goal is to improve in a subject, identify online tutorials to use and set weekly reviews to measure your understanding. Adapting to change is vital, especially for young people facing various challenges.



4. Embracing New Patterns and Behaviors


Empowerment often means breaking away from established habits. Reflect on what might be holding you back. Are you engaging in negative self-talk? Do you procrastinate frequently?


Integrating mindfulness techniques into your routine can greatly assist in breaking these patterns. Activities like meditation or simple breathing exercises can enhance awareness and foster positivity.


Instead of viewing setbacks as failures, try to see them as opportunities to learn. For example, if you didn't perform well on an exam, instead of feeling defeated, examine what study methods didn’t work and adjust your strategies. This mindset can strengthen your resilience and motivation.

5. Cultivating Supportive Connections


Your journey toward empowerment can be greatly enhanced by the relationships you nurture. Seek out friends/associates and communities that inspire you and align with your goals. Being with like-minded peers provides motivation and support.


For example, joining a local art club or sports team can open doors to friendships with individuals who share your interests. These connections can spark new ideas and approaches to navigating challenges.


Happy gatherings foster open communication as well. Make it a habit to discuss your goals with family members. For instance, a weekly dinner can be a space to celebrate small successes and brainstorm solutions to ongoing challenges among family, peers, and members.


Embracing Your Unique Journey


Redefining success is an ongoing process that requires reflection, intention, and an openness to change. As you explore what success means to you, set meaningful goals, and create a personal roadmap, embrace new behaviors, and build supportive relationships.


In a world that has changed immensely, especially for young people and their families, focusing on personal empowerment is critical. Remember, success is not solely about external achievements; it encompasses personal satisfaction, resilience, and growth.


Take these strategies to heart as you embark on your journey to success—design a definition that reflects your values and fosters your personal growth as an intuitive individual, regardless of age or experience.
