How important is it to identify what is driving your business forward? I mean, does it matter what first started you out on your journey? Does it matter if you were following your dreams, simply being pragmatic, or maybe even, following someone else's? As long as you're committed, that is, surely you can still be successful, right? In my view, the answer to that would have to be, well maybe 🤔, but could you ever truly be fulfilled? And could you really give your everything to simply fill a gap in the market, or follow a vision created by another? When I was interviewed for the graduate entry programme of the Greater Manchester Police, I was asked how ambitious I was, so I simply answered truthfully, 'I'm as ambitious as far as fulfillment goes, for that is far more important in my book than 'success at any cost'! And now, as I see Succeed From The Start fulfilling my dreams, I know it's because at the very heart of the business, are the people who make up the membership. It is they who are most important to me; their success that will cause me to celebrate, and I will do everything within my power to make it happen! #success #businessgrowth #community #collaboration #succeedfromthestart
Keep inspiring and nurturing your community Angela Roth it's this kind of genuine care that builds not only successful businesses but also meaningful legacies.
Your focus on fulfillment and the success of others as the core of your business is truly inspiring, demonstrating that true ambition is about making a meaningful impact and celebrating the achievements of those you support, Angela Roth.
That shines through Angela Roth and I am very happy to be part of the community. My motivation, especially when I was younger was from becoming the best version of myself I could be; and now it is all about passing all that learning and experience on to others and seeing them succeed (avoiding a few of the mistakes I made on my journey!)
Thanks Angela Roth Yes, I agree. ‘Ambitious as far as fulfilment goes’ is probably my mantra too.

Your success has become a collective achievement, fuelled by your remarkable ability to visualise the path forward and guide us all on that journey. Thank you Angela Roth
I'm with you on that Angela Roth. Nothing trumps fulfillment in what you do everyday and what you love doing. It is having a sense of purpose, direction and excitement on the journey that is business. One that brings pride and joy. When we are fulfilled it propels us to achieve way beyond our limit. That is what sits at the heart of my business. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
What a great journey you have been on and now you are here to lead from the heart for all of us Angela!

7moYour reflection on the importance of the underlying motivations in business is deeply insightful. In Proverbs 16:3, it is written, "Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans." This speaks to the heart of what drives a business forward—not just the pragmatic steps or market gaps, but aligning our deepest intentions with values that transcend mere success. True fulfillment in business, much like in life, comes from serving others and ensuring our work resonates with our core values and beliefs. When our ambitions are matched by a purpose that nurtures and uplifts those around us, success becomes not just a goal but a joyful celebration of shared achievements.
