Successful people didn’t become successful on accident. There are certain habits and traits they tend to have that helps propel them in the right direction.
As I researched (I gotta be successful in my endeavors so I need to get the habits), I learned that there are some rather interesting things that successful people tend to do.
Unusual Habits of Successful People
They think less
Successful people do not wanna waste time contemplating about their goals and what they wanna do with their life. They make the decision and then they go for it and dassit.
Sacrificing things others deem “necessary”
Ambitions and big dreams are not for the weak. If you are not willing to sacrifice comforts, you’ll never reach those big goals. Queen Naija used to sleep on a mattress on the floor. Steve Harvey used to live in his car. For some, that would be unthinkable. You HAVE to have a proper bed and apartment. You HAVE to live life to societies standards, but successful people will live in discomfort for a few years so they can live in luxury the rest of their lives. it’s all about perspective and vision.
Don’t believe in failure
You don’t fail when you are destined for success. You either succeed or you learn for future’s success.
Don’t care
This is my favorite one. Successful people have confidence and it doesn’t matter what ANYONE says, they gonna do what makes them happy and what they need to in order to accomplish their goals. You think their dreams are foolish or far fetched? THEY DONT GAF.
Blunt & sometimes rude
This may sound bad, but REALLY what I mean is that they are unapologetic and vocal about their wishes and how they want things to be done. This is usually received as being rude (I’ve been told I was rude for simply stating that things weren’t acceptable). They are blunt and direct about their desires and while you wouldn’t think they would be so abrupt, you hear about how some celebrities are considered high maintenance and that’s because they refuse to settle for less.
Strict with themselves
Successful people practice self discipline. They know they have to perform at a certain level to get where they desire to be. They have high standards and they hold themselves accountable for keeping them.
Confident for “no reason”
I love this about people who are successful or are on their way to it. Confidence is KEY. Successful people decide they are going to be successful and they walk in that knowledge that it’s coming.
I love all of these habits in successful people. Now, before y’all bust my chops not all successful people have EVERY one of those qualities. Some only have a few, but I believe all of these qualities have important foundations for success that helps propel you forward and keeps your mental health.
