Success Stories
A success story is when a person achieves greatness. It could be that they become rich and rise to fortune or it could be that they make an impact on the world by starting a nonprofit organization that changes people’s lives for the better. Success differs from person to person, so a “success story” could be anything. Perhaps, someone left a toxic relationship and successfully healed from the pain that it caused. Maybe, you adopted a sick animal and brought your pet to a place of health, or you were the first in your family to graduate with a college degree. The definition of “success” is individual because everyone starts from a different place and aims to achieve a goal that is unique to them.
Defining success
Success means something different to each person. What you define as successful can be different from what your friends believe is succeeding. What comes to mind when you hear the word “success”? One might picture a millionaire or a CEO when they hear “success,” but the truth is that the definition of success is different for everyone. What success is that you might not be what success is to others. Maybe, you think of success as getting through the day and managing a panic attack, whereas someone else may think of success as being able to quit drinking. Another person might think of success and picture themselves winning an award for completing a marathon or establishing boundaries with another individual. What is easy for some may not be easy for others, and one's definition of success will be as unique as they are.
Finding success in therapy
Finding success in therapy is about finding ways to curb your negative thinking. If you’re working with a therapist that uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), they’re trying to help you change negative thought patterns. They want to show you how you can take negative thoughts and transform them to be less maladaptive and more productive. It's important because the more that you work on this over time, the more automatic positive thinking will become for you. You can work with your BetterHelp therapist and find ways to be successful in your therapeutic relationship. Perhaps, you want to think about yourself more positively. Maybe, you want to be a better parent to your children. Regardless of the goal you set, your BetterHelp therapist can help you get there.
Becoming a better communicator
Everyone has a different way of communicating. Some people struggle with boundaries with others. One way of succeeding in therapy is to figure out how to set your limits with others. You might struggle with saying “no.” Maybe you’re not sure how to ask for what you want. These are goals to work on in therapy. Communication is the way to get these goals. Developing better communication skills is something you can achieve in therapy. For you, that might look like learning to set healthy boundaries, or it might look like learning how to establish what you want from another person, such as a partner in a romantic relationship, and seeing if they can provide it. It could also be communicating that you’re available to give someone else what they need and determine if you’re able to give that to them. There are so many ways to achieve therapeutic success, but to do so, it’s essential to talk to your therapist and tell them what you want to accomplish so that you can get to where you’re going.
Online counseling
An excellent place to talk about your life goals is therapy or online counseling. You deserve to be happy and achieve your dreams. With your supportive online therapist, you can talk about your goals for the future. You might be unsure of what you want to do with your life, and that’s okay too. You can brainstorm what you want to do in life with your therapist. It’s not always clear what your path is, but talking about it in therapy is one way to define your idea of success. Online counseling is a place to achieve therapeutic success. You can do this with the support of your counselor. You’re not alone, and your counselor has your back. Search the network of mental health professionals at BetterHelp and find the right fit for you.
