Andre' Dugger - Success in Life
Helping you experience success in life!
André's Coaching Focuses Successinlife.com My desire is to help you experience success in every area of your life. There are at least seven areas of life in which we each need to strive to succeed. My belief is each of us should strive to continually become more successful and healthy in each of these areas. I am a fellow traveler with you in this journey. I am not perfect, but by God's grace, I am enjoying success in life and would love to help you do the same. I am available to work with you in each of these seven areas below; however, the three areas I am focusing on the most are highlighted first: * Vocational - Career Success - We need to experience success in our vocational career. Each of us has a calling, a purpose, and we need to love what we do and do what we love. I am extremely happy and content with my calling to help others have success in life and I really do love Mondays - and every other day. I want to help you experience success in this extremely important area of your life. If you are experiencing a transition at this time in your life concerning your career, vocation, or job, let me help you. * Physical - Health/Weight Loss Success - We need to learn to have a healthy lifestyle each day. Although some of you may be healthier than I am in certain areas; by God"s grace I am healthier today than I have been in decades. I am not one of those who is naturally healthy and in great shape. I know the price that has to be paid for most of us to be healthy, but I also know how to help you experience success in this area of your life. In 2007 I lost 101 pounds - going from 293 pounds to 192 pounds (without surgery or medicine) - and according to my doctors and my blood work, I am extremely healthy physically. I would love to help you experience success by making a healthy lifestyle change. * Financial Success - We need to learn to be successful in the area of finances. Contrary to what some my think, this does not mean you have the biggest house in the county or the most expensive car on the block - although if you achieve that in a healthy manner there is certainly nothing wrong with it. Success financially means you spend less than you earn. It means you learn the joy of giving, the blessings of saving, and resist the debt minded mentality of our society. I am not the wealthiest man in America but my wife and I are debt free except for our home, we give 17% of our income to charitable causes, we save 15% of our income for retirement, and we are raising six children. What makes this amazing is that just three years ago we were in such bad shape financially we were encouraged to file for bankruptcy. We did not file for bankruptcy, and what we have learned can help you experience financial success. Spiritual Success - We need to experience spiritual success and the great news is, we can indeed do so. Although our spiritual life is very personal, it is not to be private. Spiritual success is obviously connected to eternal life. Jesus defined eternal life as "knowing God and Jesus Christ" which clearly demonstrates the importance of having a personal relationship with God as opposed to simply being a religiously minded person. I believe each of us should continue to grow spiritually each day we live. I am thankful that I have an intimate relationship with God that began while I was a teenager and continues to grow daily. I would love to help you experience spiritual success. Relational Success - We need to experience success in our relationships. We were made to be in relationship with others. In order for this to occur, we must develop strong communication skills and conflict resolution skills. We need to learn to love, forgive, and serve others. I have been happily married since 1986 and have a wonderful, growing relationship with my wife. I also have super relationships with my six children - although my teenagers think I"m crazy sometimes. I also have some good friends with whom I have deep friendships that will last a lifetime. I want to help you succeed in this area of relationships. Mental Success - We need to continue increasing our mental capacity and abilities. I strive to do this by reading at least one new book each week and spending time daily in God"s Word. I also spend time regularly dreaming big and thinking creatively. Emotional Success - We need to learn to be filled with joy and be happy and love life. I am happy and enjoy life every day. This has not always been true for me. During several years of serious health related issues and surgeries, I learned to develop key strategies to enjoying emotional health. |
