life-changing content habit number one respecting the time it takes to succeed
one of the main habits of successful people
is that they respect time because they understand the value
of it unlike many other worldly resources time is very limited
no matter where you are from you only have 24 hours to yourself in a day
what separates successful people from others is how well they use their time
for instance you are never going to gain back the time you are using to watch
this video it's gone forever but luckily this is
not wasted time millionaires spend their time on focused
activities as these are the ones that help them prosper to the greatest degree
focusing helps you eliminate distractions and manage your time well
when you're focused you won't be overwhelmed by everything around you
you will learn to say no more often than you say yes
sadly most of the activities that people engage in are not productive and the
reason for that is that they lack focus one way to
cultivate the habit of respecting time is by learning
how to schedule your activities if you do not make plans for something
you are not going to have time for it if possible create a timetable for yourself
and follow it have a time you work and a time you rest
when you do this you will realize that you have more time for the things that
are most important to you and less time for unproductive
activities habit number two making mistakes and
learning from them if you ask any millionaire to tell you
their story you would be surprised at how many times
they failed before they became successful
one other habit that soon to be millionaires have is that they are not
scared of making mistakes they know that mistakes are part of life
so they learn from them some people will not try new things in
life because they don't want to make mistakes however
life is full of uncertainties it is almost impossible to accurately predict
the outcome of whatever endeavors you're undertaking
sometimes you just have to try something and hope that it will pan
out the harsh reality is that if you're scared of mistakes then you will remain
in your comfort zone most people have brilliant ideas
that could turn them into millionaires but they don't want to try them out
because of the fear of making mistakes ask yourself how many times you've
refused to do something because you felt you would fail
well if you don't break that habit and start making mistakes
then you may never become rich the fear of mistakes will always act as
an excuse to execute habit number three asking questions there is a saying that
no man is an island of wisdom and this simply means that there is no
one on earth that knows everything no matter how intelligent you are you
are likely lacking expertise in certain fields
one of the habits of successful people is asking questions to gain knowledge
and understanding not asking questions when you do not
know the answer typically means you're trying to protect your pride and people
do not become successful because of pride but because of knowledge
moreover asking questions helps you become more creative your mind will get
to work trying to make meaning out of the question and with
that new ideas will be generated asking questions is not only about
asking other people questions sometimes you have to ask yourself some
questions if you want to become successful some
common questions you could ask yourself are what are my goals how am i going to
solve them and what do i need to do right now to
maximize the use of my time habit number four connecting with people
who are successful in your field another habit that can
make you a millionaire is connecting to people who are successful in your field
you are a reflection of the company that you keep
if you walk with four poor people you will soon become the fifth
if you walk with four lazy people you will soon become the fifth lazy person
in the same way if you walk with four millionaire friends you will soon become
a millionaire yourself i want you to examine yourself right now
by picturing your five closest friends one thing that you will notice is that
you talk like them dressed like them and probably earn almost the same amount
as them the people you walk with are the people
that feed you with the information and if you connect with successful
people in your field they will also feed you with the information that's made
them successful that is why one of the habits of
successful people is connecting with other people who are successful
in their field habit number five focusing on high value tasks
there's a rule that says eighty percent of the results you get are from
twenty percent of your actions and the remaining twenty percent of the results
are from eighty percent of your actions what this means is that not everything
you do in a day has the same effect on the results that you will obtain
some tasks have high value and others have lesser value
one of the habits of soon to be millionaires is figuring out which tasks
have high value and which ones have lost their value
successful people don't do everything by themselves they delegate tasks
that have lesser value to others while they focus on the high value tasks
for example the value of talking to a friend is not the same
as the value of making a sales call that can help
you make more money habit number six eliminating
excuses one of the greatest enemies of success or excuses
how many times have you wanted to do something new but you tell yourself that
you're not good enough this is a common excuse or maybe you
were supposed to apply for a job but you tell yourself that you are not qualified
enough excuses are a reflection of fear
you're most likely going to give an excuse when you're scared that you're
going to fail people give excuses because they don't
know what to expect the truth is that this fear won't go
away because of your excuses which is why you must learn
to eliminate them instead one of the common reasons why people give excuses
is because they are around others who love giving excuses as well
if you surround yourself with people who love to take risks
and don't give excuses you will realize that you will be motivated to do the
things that you are giving excuses for therefore the easiest way to eliminate
excuses is to surround yourself with go-getters who do not give excuses
habit number seven taking time to think the most successful people in the world
today are deep thinkers they are not just busy working hard
sometimes all they do is think they are also focus thinkers that means
that they don't just have several random thoughts running through
their head at the same time they hold a single idea in their head at a time
before they switch to other ideas if you look around you you will notice
that it's not the people who work hard that are successful
but the people who work smart you can only learn to work smart if you take
out time to think everything that you see today is a product of someone's
imagination there were times cars and airplanes did
not exist but remained imaginations in the heads
of their inventors these people were crazy enough to engage
the power of focused thinking and they were able to replicate their
imagination in real life if you want to change any habit the
easiest way is through thinking your thoughts create your words and your
words become an action before they eventually become a habit
when you take time to think you can change anything or become anything
one of the things that help you think is meditation
successful people who meditate report that meditation helps them improve their
focus and concentration it can also help you improve the quality
of your sleep and your life habit number eight reading daily
all leaders are indeed readers people who read are more knowledgeable
and that knowledge is an advantage to them one of the habits of the most
successful people is that they read every day
most of them read nothing less than 30 minutes a day
some of the world's richest people like bill gates and warren buffett claim that
most of what they know is from reading you may want to give excuses that you
are not ready because you're just too busy
but if the richest people can read every day why can't you
remember reading is not a gift every successful person cultivated the habit
until it became part of them if you want to read every day you can
keep a book close to where you will see it keep it close
to the desk next to your bed or keep it on your
table set a time for reading and make sure you read at a particular time
no matter how little you read it will soon become a habit
if you do this every day habit number nine employing gratitude
if you want to be successful then you must make it a habit to always be
grateful grateful people become great in life
gratitude makes you feel better and sets you in a good mood
the most productive people in the world are people who are always in a good mood
and one of the secrets to having a good mood is gratitude
gratitude makes you satisfied with what you have you have to make it a habit to
look for things that you are grateful for every day
here are a few ideas of things you can be grateful for every day
be grateful for life be grateful for the people in your life
be grateful for good health be grateful for the ideas that you have
habit number 10 living within your means the last habit i will share with you in
this video is living within your means it doesn't matter how much you make if
you don't live within your means you will be perpetually poor
