5 Things That Highly Successful People Do (That 99% Of Us Don’t)

 

Success requires positive, performance-based habits.

And chances are, if you’re reading this, you want to learn what they are.

Good news – we’ve done the work for you! This blog post is a list of some of the most powerful, performance-based habits of the highly successful…

Habits that have transformed lives and helped people go on to build real financial wealth.

So, without further ado…

 

#1: They Say ‘No’ and They Mean It

A study conducted at the University of California found that the easier you find it to say “no”, the less likely you are to experience stress, burnout, and depression.

Saying “no”can be challenging… but it’s a powerful word that you shouldn’t be afraid to use.

By saying “no” to the unimportant things, you’re narrowing your focus to the things that are important and worth your time. Knowing what to shoot for will make your life simpler and more rewarding.

 

#2: They Don’t Let Anyone Limit Their Achievements

When your sense of please or satisfaction comes from comparing yourself to others, you are no longer in control of your own happiness.

When you feel good about something you’ve done, don’t compare yourself to anyone or let them take away from your achievement.

No matter what other people are thinking or doing, your self-worth comes from within. You are never as good or as bad as they say you are.

 

#3: They Don’t Dwell On Their Problems

The most highly successful people understand that where you focus your attention determines your emotional state.

If you’re constantly fixated on the problems you’re facing, you’re creating negativity and stress for yourself, which then hinders your performance.

By switching this around and concentrating on solving your problems, your performance is going to skyrocket.

Don’t dwell on your problems – focus on what you need to do to solve them.

 

#4: They Choose The Right Battles To Fight

Throughout your life, there are going to be times that you will have to stand fast and fight for what you believe in.

To succeed, you need to check your emotion, choose your battles wisely and only stand your ground when the time is right. Fighting the wrong battles can leave you damaged.

 

#5: They Live In The Now

Failure can erode your self-confidence and make it hard to believe you’ll achieve better results in the future.

But most of the time, failure comes from taking risks and trying to achieve something that isn’t easy.

The world’s most successful recognise that anything worth achieving requires risk  and the ability to rise up in the face of failure.

If you live in the past, you’re stopping yourself from moving forward. You need to put that behind you and navigate the sometimes rocky road to success.
