What are the four levels of success? What’s the highest level of success you can achieve in life?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Gay Hendricks, there are four distinct levels of success people occupy. These levels can be described as 1) stagnancy, 2) adequacy, 3) high achievement, and 4) state of fulfillment. As we accomplish more in life, we move through subsequently higher levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep reading to learn about the four levels of success and their key characteristics, according to Hendricks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

#1: Stagnancy\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In this level of life, Hendricks explains, you accomplish little to nothing because you waste time and energy on doing things you\u2019re not good at, rather than on things you excel at<\/strong>. You\u2019re continually frustrated and spinning your wheels, because you aren\u2019t homing in on your skills and talents, and you stubbornly refuse to admit that there are just some things you aren\u2019t cut out for. For example, you may be stuck in a dead-end job you hate, or unable to hold down jobs, and you feel like a failure. In fact, the problem may be that you\u2019re just not pursuing what you\u2019re good at. You might be achieving much more in a different career path<\/a> that\u2019s more aligned with your natural abilities.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discover Your \u201cSparketype\u201d<\/strong>

If you find yourself at the level of stagnancy, you may need to do some work around discovering what your unique skills and talents are, so you can apply that knowledge to your career path. To help people do this, best-selling author Jonathan Fields has developed The Sparketype Assessment<\/a>. Through a series of questions about your personal likes, dislikes, interests, ideals, and values, this assessment reveals the \u201cdriving force\u201d behind what makes you you<\/em>, and what gives you a sense of purpose<\/a> in life\u2014this is your \u201cSparketype.\u201d Once you\u2019ve identified your Sparketype, you can use that to identify why you may currently be stagnating and how you might better incorporate your passions into your career path.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

#2: Adequacy\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At this level, you appear to be doing fine; you\u2019ve achieved some level of success and are making progress.<\/strong> You may be on par with your peers, but not really excelling beyond them. For example, if your friends and family think you\u2019re \u201cdoing well\u201d but you still feel like you\u2019re falling short of your potential, or you find you\u2019ve hit a wall in terms of advancement, you may be stuck at the level of adequacy. To go beyond adequacy, Hendricks advises that you may just need to re-focus and re-prioritize, thinking a bit outside the box to imagine how you could aim a little higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Set Extreme Goals<\/strong>

In The 10X Rule<\/em><\/a>, Grant Cardone warns against settling for average or mediocre goals for success. One problem with doing this is that often those goals are set by others, rather than by yourself<\/a>. They tend to be goals that adhere to the societal norm, so by definition they never take you beyond that, and they\u2019re also not strongly motivating since they\u2019re not uniquely your goals. Cardone claims that by setting simply adequate, you set yourself up for achieving less <\/em>than that if and when you experience any setbacks. So, he says to achieve great success, you must aim much<\/em> higher than you otherwise would have. Set your goals 10 times higher, and work 10 times harder to achieve them.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

#3: High Achievement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At this level, you\u2019ve reached a degree of accomplishment that others admire. You\u2019re good at what you do, and you\u2019re solidly \u201csuccessful\u201d according to society\u2019s standards. You can get very comfortable in this zone, because on the surface you may look and feel like you\u2019ve reached your highest potential. But Hendricks warns us that there are two potential problems when you reach this level of achievement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. You still have a nagging sense that something is missing in your life.<\/strong> Deep down something tells you there must be more<\/em>, but you can\u2019t put your finger on what it is. This is your inner calling to true fulfillment beckoning you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. This is also where you\u2019re in danger of encountering the Upper Limit Problem<\/a>, which acts as a barrier to reaching that state of fulfillment. <\/strong>These two forces\u2014your call to fulfillment and your upper limit\u2014work against each other at this level. When you feel the satisfaction of this much accomplishment, you\u2019re likely to begin to engage in self-sabotage, to ensure you don\u2019t go beyond that. This is due to deep-seated feelings of unworthiness<\/a> or other limiting beliefs we\u2019ll discuss in the next section. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: In The Happiness Trap<\/em><\/a>, Russ Harris explains that humans aren\u2019t hard-wired for happiness<\/a>, and the pursuit of that often has the opposite result. We\u2019re driven to accumulate as a survival instinct<\/a>, but in the modern world, this relentless drive to acquire more material wealth keeps us in a vicious cycle because we never know when enough is enough. This is similar to how Hendricks describes the High Achievement level of success, and why such people may still feel like something is missing.)    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

#4: State of Fulfillment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to Hendricks, this is the level we\u2019re all meant to reach in life\u2014it\u2019s your true life purpose<\/a>. When you transcend the limitations of your upper limit, you reach your highest potential, and there\u2019s no boundary on the amount of love, wealth, and joy you can experience. In this state,<\/strong> you\u2019re not just achieving, but thriving. Hendricks describes this as breaking out of all the \u201cboxes\u201d of the previous levels and living a life of limitless expansion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
