Success is a habit and we can learn from the habits of peak performers and self-made millionaires. Take them and apply them to your life.
There are principles that can make a difference in your own success. These principles are simple, but few are the people who actually put them into practice. If we’re able to, new levels and fitness and strength await – like sustaining the boat pose.
To accomplish your goals, you don’t have to learn rocket science. Anyone can be an achiever. But what’s more important is the person you become while you’re pursuing your best. In the process you become a completely different person and develop character beyond 99% of the people in this world. Honesty, discipline, focus — with these anything is possible.
Here’s a C of success – practice and it has the the potential to change your life. Brian Tracy has some tips that can be applied to any goal or milestone.
CLARITY
80% of success comes from clarity — knowing who you are, what you stand for, and what you want to accomplish. Conversely, 80% of problems and business failures are due to a lack of clarity.
“Fifty successful business owners were asked for their best time management tool. 49 out of the 50 held up a yellow writing pad,” Tracy says. “Their business tool was simple: simply making a list. Most businesses fail because they’re not clear. They don’t think on paper.”
Throughout his keynote, Tracy emphasized the importance of pen and paper. It’s the physical process of writing — not the words — that activates all three major areas of the brain and makes our ideas and goals stick longer term. The following 3 keys (and writing them down!) can help you achieve more clarity and the subsequent boost in self-confidence that will follow.
Key 1: Decide exactly what you want.
Most people in the world don’t know what they want and when they want to accomplish it by. Make sure what you want is so simple that a 6-year old can both understand it and explain it to another 6-year old.
Key 2: Take action.
Taking action sounds simple, but it’s hard. Get up and do something. It can be an easy next step like revising your paper, making a phone call, or ordering a book. The important thing is you’re up and moving towards your goal.
Key 3: Do something every day.
Tracy recommends taking out a clean sheet of paper and writing down the next 10 goals you’d like to accomplish. Then pretend you have a magic wand and the ability to make any of these goals a reality in the next 24 hours. Which would you choose? Circle that goal, write it on a clean sheet of paper, and begin these seven keys again.
