We were rewarded for what worked
� Worked hard to ‘get it done’
� Again and� Again and� Again
� GOLD Stars� PAT on Back� Promotion� Pay Raise� Trophies� More PAT on BACK� Social Recognition� Big SHOT status

We faced a challenged where what we did in the past just didn’t work anymore…
ü Then something changed.
ü It was so subtle a change we hardly noticed it at first.
ü But we began to have this nagging doubt that our old magic was fading or the situation wasn’t quite the same as before.

What’s Different?
How is it that when I did ‘X’ to get ‘Y’, in the past, I now no longerget ‘Y’ when I do ‘X’? What’s different?*

My beliefs have changed and I am no longer motivated by the same things as I was in the past
Beliefs are a core driving influence on all our behaviours, conscious or unconscious.
Often we can carry outmoded beliefs—even beliefs we held as children that are unexamined—and often these beliefs are incongruent with our true feelings causing a conflict between what we truly know and what we or others think we ‘should’ know or believe.
I have changed!

Escaping the Success Trap
� When what we’ve done before no longer works, we need to examine how we’ve achieved our past success� Next, we need to decide what is different now� Then we need to make appropriate adjustments to
our strategy to achieve outcomes under the new set of circumstances
What could be easier? This is so straight forward!
