How Important Is Spousal Support to Your Success?

How important is spousal support to your success?  Before I go any further, I use the term 'spousal support' to include; partner, significant other, spousal equivalent, boyfriend, girlfiriend, husband, or wife, whatever you call the person you with whom you are sharing a commited relationship, that's who I am referring to with the term 'spousal support'.

So now that we've cleared up the terminology I will ask again, how important is spousal support to your success?  You may be surprise to learn how important it really is.

In fact, a study sponsored by Avon of more than thirty thousand women in thirty-three countries cited a supportive spouse or partner as the most important criterion for success in starting a business.

According to Barbara Stanny, the majority of the women she interviewed for her book "Secrets of Six-Figure Women"  credited spousal support and encouragement as monumentally instrumental in their success.

You know you have spousal support if your partner is a true believer in you and your endeavors. You may hear comments such as, "You can do anything." or "I'm your biggest fan." 

My husband encourages me. He reassures me. He is my biggest fan. But....often times I dismiss his opinion...after all, he is in love with me...and we've all heard love is blind.  So I frequently dismiss his comments as too biased.  But after learning how important it is to have a true believer in my corner and learning how valuable spousal support has been to other successful women I have come to understand how important spousal support is to my success.

If you are lucky enough to have spousal support, embrace it!  Let that belief in you fuel your success!
