The YBR Success Quotient

As many of you may know, I've recently completed by first ebook and am in the process of finishing the full length manual all about creating and maintaining a successful lifestyle. At the center of most of my writing, is the notion of measuring success as it relates to the abstract construct I've come up with called The Success Quotient (believe me, it sounds much more complicated than it actually is). For those of you who have already purchased my ebook, you may already be familiar with the concept, but I've decided to give a quick refresher course for those of you who are not.


And so, here it is: The YBR Success Quotient.
by Alecia D.

Success has nothing to do with the amount of money, cars, or homes you own. It has nothing to do with the type of job you have or whether you are married or not. Success, as defined by YBR Enterprise Inc, is the ability for an individual to accomplish the goals set for him/herself. In other words, as long as you are happy, content, and satisfied with the choices you are making in your life, YOU are successful. Sounds simple enough, doesn’t it? However the fun is in deciding which choices and which goals you want to pursue. Although owning a mansion doesn’t make you successful, the ability to desire a mansion and then following the necessary steps to obtain it does.

Simply put, the success quotient is the ratio of Mind:Body:Wealth. It is absolutely pointless and counterproductive even to excel in one of these tiers and not in any of the others. What good is money if your health is so poor that you are unable to enjoy your wealth? What good is a killer body if your mind is cloudy and depressed? It is imperative that we work on all parts of the quotient in order to maximize the amount of success we can achieve.

It is also important to note that each person’s success quotient is individual to his or her own lifestyle. There is no magic number that signifies the ideal success quotient for each person to strive towards. There are some people who consider a healthy body to mean being a size 4 and being able to run a marathon, while there are others who consider a healthy bank account to mean being able to pay all of their bills on time and in full every month with a bit left over for simple treats. The possibilities are endless on the path to success. The most important step is to decide what you would like your success to look like. Once you figure that out, the fun is all in the journey of getting there.
