Hello, and welcome to the Borealis experience. I'm
Unknown:your host Aurora, life coach and companion on this beautiful
Unknown:journey called life. I hope you're doing well I hope you
Unknown:feel good. And if you do not feel all too good, I hope I can
Unknown:get my message across loving, and inspiring and empowering.
Unknown:And yeah, lifting up. Today I want to talk about a couple
Unknown:myths, myths around successful people. I feel it is very
Unknown:important to talk about it because most of the time, we
Unknown:think that people who are successful, never go through
Unknown:pain are born that way, had it easy because of their family,
Unknown:had money from their family just are a different species a very
Unknown:different kind of human being than we feel we are. And I love
Unknown:to bust myths. I love to give you all the tools that you need
Unknown:to feel successful to feel liberated from old stuff that
Unknown:doesn't serve you anymore. And to feel yourself strongest
Unknown:version of yourself. It is a little bit weird to disturb the
Unknown:record. But yeah, let's
Unknown:let's dive into this juicy topic.
Unknown:The first myth I want to attack is the myth that we think that
Unknown:successful Happy, Healthy People never struggle. They do
Unknown:struggle, they do struggle a lot, even. The only thing that
Unknown:is maybe different from our struggles is that they ask for
Unknown:help. They reach out. They have advisors, they have people that
Unknown:support them, listen to them, and then
Unknown:give them advice, make them feel supported and good about
Unknown:themselves
Unknown:again, and most of us, I feel or I can just speak for myself. For
Unknown:the longest time, I thought I have to struggle by myself. It
Unknown:has to feel hard. Otherwise, I'm not earning deserving success.
Unknown:And this is totally wrong. I lose so much energy, confidence,
Unknown:and life force when I'm trying to do it all. As soon as I reach
Unknown:out as soon as I know that there's people out there who can
Unknown:do something better than I can do certain things. I feel
Unknown:supported, I feel we can do this, I feel I can move on,
Unknown:instead of feeling stuck getting frustrated and wanting to throw
Unknown:everything into the garbage bin.
Unknown:So mess number one.
Unknown:We can do it alone. No. Successful people need advisors,
Unknown:coaches and support. We cannot do it alone. I never heard of
Unknown:any success story where the person did it all by themselves.
Unknown:People struggle, we all struggle. But some people choose
Unknown:to ask for help. And some people just choose to try to do it by
Unknown:themselves and sometimes it's just not possible. Myth number
Unknown:two, success is genetic. You have to be born into a
Unknown:successful rich family. Otherwise you cannot make it in
Unknown:this world. This is absolute B S. If you look into it a little
Unknown:bit deeper, you will find out that the most successful people
Unknown:came out from adversity, stress, chaos, pain, trauma, and were
Unknown:able to overcome these extreme obstacles. They were able to see
Unknown:opportunity in these obstacles and overcoming them by reaching
Unknown:out by having people close to them that believe in them. Or by
Unknown:simply knowing that there is no other way than moving forward.
Unknown:So, my dear, if you feel that success is only reserved for a
Unknown:special
Unknown:species of human being, I'm very happy to announce that this is
Unknown:not the truth. And I really encourage everybody to look up
Unknown:successful people and their stories and to see how much pain
Unknown:and suffering they had to go through before they became
Unknown:successful. The third myth I want to bust today is that in
Unknown:order to be successful, you need a lot of money. Well, my friend
Unknown:is also not true. Because again, if you look into it, yes, there
Unknown:are some people who had money, maybe old family money, and were
Unknown:able to use it in order to be successful. But there's also
Unknown:very successful people out there who had absolutely nothing.
Unknown:Where their families had absolutely nothing, it was post
Unknown:war, everything was bombarded and destroyed. But they found a
Unknown:way to become successful. And the trick here is really very
Unknown:simple. You just need to be connected to the world around
Unknown:you and clearly see what it is that people need, how you can be
Unknown:of service to people, or, and find something that is necessary
Unknown:to get done. But nobody really wants to do it. There's an
Unknown:example I forgot his name, he started a cleaning business back
Unknown:then, I think it was in New York, and started cleaning huge
Unknown:companies at night when everybody was at home sleeping,
Unknown:watching movies, partying, and started cleaning more and more
Unknown:buildings and had to start hiring people because he got
Unknown:more contracts. And so he had built a business, on serving
Unknown:others and finding an activity, a duty that nobody else wanted
Unknown:to do. But something that has to get done in order to have a
Unknown:beautiful running business, a clean workspace is important.
Unknown:This is what everybody figured. And he had a company with very
Unknown:reliable, trustworthy janitors, and was, yeah, very successful
Unknown:with this idea. So find something that brings value to
Unknown:other people. And you don't have to worry about any, you know,
Unknown:big investment, money or capital. At the beginning,
Unknown:people will see your potential, they will feel your energy, they
Unknown:will see your work, they will see that you do it out of the
Unknown:goodness of your heart. And that is when money flows, and money
Unknown:starts building up. And you can use that money to build a
Unknown:successful life a successful business. Another myth that I
Unknown:want to bust here is that successful people buy a lot of
Unknown:things have a lot of things. Now we want to distinguish between
Unknown:rich people who love to brag with all their goods, their
Unknown:cars, their jewelry, their awesome vacations, and wealthy
Unknown:people. Wealthy people are the people who are really rich, who
Unknown:absolutely have nothing to do with bragging and they like to
Unknown:stay to themselves and work hard. They make investments they
Unknown:invest into assets, instead of purchasing consumer goods or
Unknown:liabilities. So one thing will cost you money and depreciate
Unknown:over time. And the other thing is gonna make you more money.
Unknown:So, example here, buying jewelry buying an expensive car And
Unknown:watch us going out to fancy restaurants. This is all money
Unknown:that goes into another person's pocket, it goes out of your
Unknown:wallet into another person's pocket. If you invest in that,
Unknown:say, a computer, or a dump trailer,
Unknown:or machinery that you can use to make more money, like get more
Unknown:work done and less time, less time than you are investing into
Unknown:an asset, it is going to generate you money, yes, you are
Unknown:buying something. So money goes out of your pocket, but that's
Unknown:something is going to help you to generate even more money. So
Unknown:it is very important to see how you use your money. Are you
Unknown:using money to consume things? Or are you using money to help
Unknown:you make more money, there's awesome podcasts and books out
Unknown:there that can help you when it comes to financial health. All
Unknown:right, this is what I wanted to talk about today. You have it
Unknown:inside of you, you have all the resources you need to be
Unknown:successful, happy and content. It is a matter of and digging
Unknown:these resources if you don't quite see them right now. And it
Unknown:is about getting unstuck, liberating you and making you
Unknown:see the potential that you have living inside of you. This is
Unknown:what I do as a coach. Once we talk on a free call and the
Unknown:first 60 minutes, I usually find out pretty quickly what the
Unknown:person needs. And from there, we just hit it off and find out
Unknown:what the person is meant to do here on planet earth or if they
Unknown:found their purpose already, how to be even more successful.
Unknown:Also, addressing relationships and how to be happy and
Unknown:fulfilled and so desirable and lovable, that you either attract
Unknown:the partner into your life that is good for you or that you have
Unknown:a totally fulfilling relationship that will be
Unknown:unshakable. All right. I'm gonna leave you on this. always
Unknown:appreciative of reviews. If you want to leave me a rating here
Unknown:on Apple podcast or Spotify. That's awesome too. And yeah,
Unknown:share with family and friends if I was able to bring you value
Unknown:with lots of love, Aurora. Until next time, bye bye
