What is the Triangle of Success?

The triangle of success is a simple model you can follow to succeed in any aspect of your life. The paradigm started out many years ago when Johnny first started his path of self-development. Working a dead-end job and not getting into any colleges, by serendipity he came across the book, “Feel the Fear and Do It Anyways” by Dr. Susan Jeffers. This book helped him develop his own method and helped get Johnny started on the path of self-improvement and self development and the beginnings of the triangle of success.

Why do I need the Triangle of Success?

People can be categorized into 2 distinct groups…

Social Value Givers

and

Social Value Takers

The phrases “giving value” vs. “taking value” are popular and are often used terms in the self-development community.

Why do we want to succeed?

From a primal perspective, our goal is to survive and replicate. Pretty much everything can be reduced down to that. It’s really simple actually.

However, we aren’t cavemen, we live in an era where we can experience the quote-unquote “luxury” of an existential crisis. Because living in modern times, especially in the country we live in, we don’t need to worry about survival and replication on a daily basis. If we’re hungry, we can call pizza hut and have our sustenance delivered to our door in 30 minutes or less (or your money back.) If we’re horny, we can go on craigslist or match.com or call up Mystery from the “Pick-up Artist” and eventually we will find what we are looking for.

As modern day humans, we are living in the evolutionary lap of luxury. The trials and tribulations of our ancestors are really of little consequence to us. We as a people want to strive for something more, to create something bigger and better than ourselves, to leave our mark on this world. I gather that if you are satisfied sitting in front of the TV every night with a BIG Mac and a six pack of beer, you wouldn’t be here. You’re already several steps ahead of the pack just by consciously trying to improve yourself. So for that, you are to be congratulated.

So, What does success really mean?
