Kirsty Chadwick Definition Of Success | Success to me has always been about achieving the goals that I set for myself – both personally and professionally.

 

My Highlights | The highlight of my personal life is, without a doubt, my son. When I have a bad day, just knowing that I will see him at the end of it, makes everything seem better.

 

Founding The Training Room Online and the things that we have accomplished over the past 6 years makes me feel extremely proud.

 

The Difference Between good And Great | Is Passion and determination.

 

A Key Strength | Working hard has been critical to my success, in particular being able to work efficiently. It has been important for me to be able to learn to delegate; prioritize tasks; and to learn to say no sometimes.

 

a) Never lose sight of your goals – the more you focus on what you want to achieve, the more likely you are to get there.

b) Choose wisely – it is important that you surround yourself with like-minded people. They need to have the same type of drive and determination as you.

c) Trust your instincts – when something doesn’t feel right, it usually isn’t. Your gut instinct is one of the most powerful things that you have.

d) Attitude – it’s up to you to choose the attitude that you are going to have for the day ahead. Make sure you choose wisely.

e) Sacrifice – sometimes you need to sacrifice certain things in your life in order to reach your goals. Success doesn’t happen instantly, it takes a lot of hard work and perseverance.

f) Know your strengths – it is important to know what you are good at and how to use those things to your advantage.

g) Persistence – if at first you don’t succeed, dust yourself off and try again.

 

 

Principles I Live By | Honest, sincerity, kindness, and consideration towards the needs of others.

 

 

How I Use My Mind | Through visualization – I visualize where I will be and where my business will be in the future having achieved the goals set out.  Retaining a positive mindset and believing in yourself is very important.

 

 

The Best Advice I’ve Received | Reach for the stars and never give up.

 

How To Inspire Others | Lead by example; create an engaging working environment; listen and connect with the team; inspire and motivate everyone to continue to perform better.

 

The Legacy I’d Like To Leave | I would like to have made an impact on education within Africa.
