Speaker 1:

Welcome to the Heart of Success show and I'm your host, larisa Vakulina. I go live every Wednesday at 2 pm, south Australian time zone and here on this show, I'm redefining success. I'm sharing with you all the different techniques, tips, methods and sharing personal experience how you can create an amazing, fulfilled, happy, abundant and truly successful life, because success really comes from our heart and that's what I'm trying to share with you here, with different insights and different experiences that may be resonating with you. As you remember, in my not last episode, but the episode before, we've been talking about how we all have our unique character structure, how we all have unique configuration and unique approach to happiness and fulfillment. We are so deeply affected by all the programming, all the news, all the manipulative ways of distorting reality, so that we sometimes don't even know what it means to be happy, what it means to be fulfilled, what it means to really joyfully go through your life and create freely. So, as you remember, I was offering a free gift for you to go and take a quiz that can identify and help you to recognize who and what persona you are in relation to happiness and fulfillment, because there's four categories that each person fall into and it has its own unique set of criterias, and a set of criteria and a set of configuration and needs that need to be not ignored in order for you to create truly happy and fulfilled life. So today I'm going to share with you another persona style, which is really amazing accelerating the world of the thrill seeker.

Speaker 1:

Thrill seeker is a person, a type of persona that is actually thriving and that is so happy and exuding that joyfulness in the environment of adventure, in the environment of novelty. These people really love to have changes very frequently, because they become bored very quickly and that, of course, can create some sort of crises or some sort of conflicts and situations where thrill seekers could be really stagnant. So thrill seekers are people who need to be aware of this trait that actually can help them to schedule and develop and create their life, considering this need for the novelty, adventure, for the excitement for something new and this is what I'm inviting you to do to take actually, let me get you the link here. Yes, it's here. If you go to this link, you can then go and answer a number of very provocative questions. These questions are designed to actually get all that deep, deep, hidden material. Even from yourself, they seem really simple questions, but they create it in a way that it is extracting information from you and putting you into right category of the persona, towards happiness and fulfillment. That will give you a full analysis and a full report for this type of traits that you possess.

Speaker 1:

How you can easily be aware of these traits and actually create your life in accordance to the needs of these traits, rather than live your life unconsciously or pre-programmed way, I would say the way that we all believe that we have to live, have our stable job from 9 to 5 or some business that is so hard and so difficult to run, and we still settle for the way that it is the way it has to be. The life just goes like this and we're accepting the way where we're struggling a lot, we're accepting the way we're actually suffering and holding the pain and not doing anything about it. But in reality it's not like that. In reality, if we start to learn about ourselves, if we have this self-knowledge, if we have this self-knowledge, if we obtain it, if we become aware of our own unique configuration, of the energies and the traits and all the traumatic or wounded events in our life, this material is all hidden in our unconscious and when we actually live our life without having any idea of what in our unconscious level, we're not able to bring it into conscious level and we struggle because we constantly run into all these negative experiences, from conflict to conflict, from limitation to limitation, from deficit to deficit. We, of course, are achieving a lot by pushing through. We are involving and implementing all our professional skills and knowledge and all this logical thinking and all of this effort that we are constantly putting into succeeding or into maintaining this success or maintaining our lives the way we believe it has to be on the external level.

Speaker 1:

But if we ignoring our unique parts of ourselves and go and live our life as a standard way of seeing that the life needs to be only that way, that people who have a lot of money are the people who are successful and who they are happy and they controlling everything and all things like that, but really, in reality, it's your responsibility to really create your life the way that you want to live, and in order to do that, there is no way you can actually do it and have absolute happiness and fulfillment only by utilizing your learned external method and tools. This is all coming from here, from inside. It's all inside you, in your heart, and that's what I'm trying to help you with, because I created this quiz based on my own experiences and journey from the relentless success race to a complete, abundant, happy, fulfilled life. And this I call it guidance, or the roadmap that can actually help you to understand and take into conscious level the part of yourself that you never ever looked at, that you never ever even imagined that you have. You have in this your life that is happy, that is joyful, that is fulfilled.

Speaker 1:

So today we're talking about a thrill seeker. So, as I said, this type of persona is loving excitement, adventure, novelty, and it always looks for that external stimulus to fulfill or meet the need of this type of persona, which is sometimes can be mistaken. It seems like you constantly need to go out and external to get the stimulus to actually feed that type of your personality. So imagine, for example, somebody working as a strategist on a day job at some adventure like next skydiving or rock climbing or bundle jumping or something like that, and so, being knowing your personality, you can actually create your love around that need of your personality. But also, as much as it's joyful and adventurous to hear about this trait. Sometimes it is not really all high flying. So the thrill seekers are struggling with balance. They're struggling with balanced contribution or distribution of the energy that they are spending on adventures and also on having your realizing or reaching your purpose professionally. Or they struggle to create balance between the need for constant change and novelty and actually perform and have a really effective career path. Really effective career path because, as we know, when we have some jobs that require us to have more routine work and more of a not-so-changing types of activities at our jobs, right.

Speaker 1:

So I have a friend that she actually is a thrill seeker, a true embodiment of this persona, and she struggled to stay in one job. And she struggled to stay in one job. She always tried to jump and find something that would actually resonate with her. Even in the beginning she becomes really excited and she found that job. That that's it. This is the perfect job for me. I'm going to strive in this job. But then, when she starts to dive deeper into the responsibilities and actions of this job, she would find out that boredom again. She would look externally again to have that stimulation of her thrill-seeker personality, of her thrill-seeker personality, and so ignoring or misunderstanding this type of personality can create a lot of disorder and a lot of conflicts and some crises. So that's why I'm inviting you to confirm If you are feeling within yourself some calls to travel a lot, to see new places, to meet new people. You have all of this representation of being a thrill seeker. Well, go and jump on this quiz and confirm it for yourself. So that will be a first step.

Speaker 1:

Even though you know you have that trait of your personality, sometimes you are surprised or sometimes you wonder why you know having such a thrill and joyful personality, you struggle in some areas of your life, for example, where it needs to be a little bit more stable, a little bit more repetitive, somewhere where you need to have that certain constant discipline and responsibilities. So that's where the report that you can actually have from confirming your thrill seeker can give you a full, deep analysis of your strengths, of weaknesses, of challenges, of opportunities. What can be done with your type or with that type of your persona in terms of how you can combine your life, your professional life, your personal life, your relationships, that it is actually enriching your experience of life with much more happy and joyful creations rather than, for example, another friend of mine and he and he was very excited and happy, but then with time he realized and he started to feel that he was trapped by this stagnant marriage. Imagine having this adventurous, very bright light personality and not even scheduling all of these, you know, activities that can meet the need of this personality. When he become married, of course, he would feel trapped, he would feel like he is basically giving up his freedom and he is unhappy and unfulfilled. And imagine if he would just not understanding that this is his own internal character, the persona that needs to be adjusted a certain way and together with his wife or partner, he can actually do it. They can have discussion about it and saying, okay, well, this is the part of me that is thriving and replenishing energy by going to these adventurous explorations. And what if we can do it together and if the partner is not really that personality? But still you can give in to each other, considering different traits of different personalities, you can adjust and you can plan and create your life together, with having all of the activities for the thrill seeker or the other type of personality, say the connection maven or some other out of four.

Speaker 1:

So there is always a way when you are aware and know well, then of course you can assist yourself because there is awareness that you, as a thrill seeker, are thriving and replenishing and having uh, having refreshed yourself, have your energy flowing better in the environment, which is very stimulative for you in terms of changes, in terms of adventures and novelties and all of the stimulation of the exploration. So then of course you can work around it with your team, with your business, with your loved ones, with your partners and with yourself. You wouldn't be so much struggling because you're giving up this part of yourself If you take on everyone's responsibility, if you are doing the right things and not giving yourself this stimulation for that, for your particular persona, for the happiness and fulfillment. That's why this tool, that quiz, can be really instrumental for you to realize and accept the way you are. And when you know who you are in relationship to creating happy and fulfilled life, you are more equipped to actually do it consciously. You can intentionally plan your holidays. You can intentionally plan your holidays. You can intentionally and consciously plan your weekends. You can intentionally and consciously in a very balanced and really optimal way to meet your needs, because when we are running and when we are having this success race, we're giving up parts of ourselves that are so important to actually integrate your life the way that it will bring you only positive experiences.

Speaker 1:

So I really invite you to get onto this quiz, get to answer all the questions and, please, I'm asking you to do it very honestly. So honesty is really a key here because really, you are doing it for yourself. You're not really doing it for me. I've already gone through it. I know what I'm good at, what I'm not good at, my weaknesses and strengths and what really gives me back my energy.

Speaker 1:

Because when I'm creating, when I am actually investing my energy into creating my business, my personal life, my relationships, I need a replenishment bank and I know my personality and I really honor this part of me and I am consciously planning and designing my life that I am on a regular basis to give to this part of myself everything that it needs to be given in order to fill in my tank again. Because when we do big projects, when we invest ourselves into a big development of the business and big projects and different tasks, we can easily waste a lot of energy. And also we cannot waste energy by creating great product services and work with our clients. But if we're not filling in this energy in a way that is only unique to you, then, of course, at your weekends or night times or any other times where you have your own space and holidays, if you're not filling in your energy tank back again, well then you're going to face and pave the road to a deeper crisis.

Speaker 1:

Because what I'm here, what I'm talking about here, is more about the energetic configuration of all your parts of you, because, as we all the same, but we also, each of us, unique of working with energy, distributing it into the different expressions of our creativity and all our expression of our life, but we also need to understand our own unique way to filling back our empty tanks energetic empty tanks and filling back the energy waste or the energy that we're spending for creating our life. We really need to know that particular way of your personality that is effectively filling in and replenishing back your energy so that you can keep creating beauty, keep creating for the benefit of many. So again, the thrill seeker is an amazing personality style which is creating a lot of joy in this world, which creates a lot of changes and spontaneous expressions and different inventions. To actually meet this thrill seek, a personality for the joyfulness, happiness and fulfillment, and I would like you again to look at the quiz and confirm that you are one of them, that you are one of them, and I'm sure you would find it very, very insightful the result that you're going to get and also report.

Speaker 1:

There is situations where the person is actually thinking that he is, or she is, a thrill seeker, but in reality, when she or he answered these questions of my quiz, they actually fall into different category.

Speaker 1:

Well, in this case it's happened because we sometimes create a construct, we create a mask around us to be able to feel more comfortable and protecting our pains and traumas, because sometimes we create this overlay of the external self to please other people, to make them more happier, in order for them to love us back. Because we have this part I'm not good enough and just by pretending being someone else is not going to be serving you well. That's why taking this quiz is so important, because if you answer these questions honestly, you're going to get a very truthful, precise and reliable answer on what type of persona style you are in relationship to happiness and fulfillment. And for now, I'm going to say thank you so much. Can you like subscribe to my YouTube channel. I'm going to keep sharing with you another two types of the happiness and fulfillment persona. For my future episodes, stay tuned in and, if you're curious, please get on to the quiz and start to understand yourself more. Thank you so much and I'll see you next week.
