Fulfillment

In working with successful clients, I have been looking at the two definitions for fulfillment: Balance

Webster’s has:

Main Entry: ful·fill·ment

Fulfilling- -

Main Entry: ful·fill

Variant(s): or ful·fil \fu̇(l)-ˈfil also fə(l)-\

Inflected Form(s): ful·filled; ful·fill·ing

Etymology: Middle English fulfillen, from Old English fullfyllan, from full + fyllan to fill

1 archaic : to make full : fill <her subtle, warm, and golden breath…fulfills him with beatitude — Alfred Tennyson>

3 a : to convert into reality b : to develop the full potentialities of

synonyms see perform

2 : the act or process of delivering a product (as a publication) to a customer

Whether you look at the self-fulfillment of your potentialities or the fulfillment of a customer order, they both seem to come at the end. They are not so different.

What if fulfillment were only the beginning?

In business, when we fulfil a customer order, we now have the opportunity to begin a relationship that can lead to more and more fulfillment, for both you and the customer.

In your self, developing your potentialities, you now begin to live your true and precious life.

What is your next step after fulfillment?
