Real success takes discipline and methodology. Here are 8 things that the most successful people are meticulous about getting right.
Most people claim to want success. But not ev
Truly successful people don’t leave much to chance. They are disciplined and focused. They constantly seek new methods to achieve more, in bigger and faster ways. Listed below are 8 different practices that will help you concentrate your efforts and rise above the tide.
1. Make Materialism Irrelevant. Fancy cars and houses are all well and good, but many foolishly focus on the byproducts of success, rather than concentrating on building sustainable success in the first place. Establish a bare minimum for your material needs, and then you can enjoy the benefits of success, debt-free and stress-free.
2. Enhance Your Knowledge. Success comes faster to those who are open, active learners. The higher up the success ladder you climb, the more complex the systems and opportunities that are presented to you. Absorb all the information you can and if you sense a gap you can’t fill, connect with people who have the knowledge you need.
3. Manage Relationship Expectations. People in your life require time. Successful individuals attract folk and so they have to carefully regulate the time they can spend with others. It’s hard to limit the time you share and still make people feel important. Make choices about the people who matter to you and determine how you each can get value from your interactions. Then make sure they understand your limitations so they don’t take it personally when you can’t be present.
4. Practice Emotional Self-Awareness. Not all successful people are calm and pleasant. In fact, many can be quite volatile. But most are very aware of their tempers and idiosyncrasies. They know how to use their emotions to get what they want from life and work hard to make sure their behaviour doesn’t become detrimental. Know yourself and learn how to let your emotions work for you in positive ways.
5. Commit to a Physical Ideal. Everyone has a vision of his or her own perfect body. They don’t have to be fashion models or athletes to be happy. But physical health is a consideration in their life and it’s a big distraction when it gets out of whack. Determine the body you believe is worth working for and set a game plan to achieve and maintain it.
6. Gain Clarity About Spirituality. There are many highly successful people like Richard Branson and Wartren Buffet who don’t consider religion to be important or relevant. But they do have a clear point of view as to the role spirituality plays in their life. Find your own way to be at one with the universe and be clear and deliberate in how you practice.
7. Adhere to a Code of Ethics. Really successful people live by rules. They may not be the rules of others, but consistency is important for them to maintain power and stability. Their individual view of how the world works is the basis for how they believe people should be treated and they will defend it until their dying day. Determine your ethical lines and broadcast them loud and clear so people around you know where you and they stand.
8. Focus on Time-Efficiency. Prioritisation is a key component of success. You can’t reach your pinnacle if you are wasting time on distractions. Integration of activities frees up time for greater achievement. Spend a portion of your time on activities that are fun and enlightening, as well as productive. You’ll soon discover you have gained valuable time in which to achieve even greater success.
Ultimately, really successful people live their lives by design instead of default. So if you want to be one of them, dedicate time and effort to determining the plan for your preferred future and execute that plan in a focused and consistent manner.
Dedicated to your future,
