A very important discovery of
psychology and success
tell that 95% of things that we think we feel, take actions, and achieve are only because of our habits. In simple words, your habits are the
main factors that'll decide what you get in life i.e. success or failure. Only a few people become successful because only a few people form important habits and
make it a ritual and follow it daily which in return make them successful. So
today I have shared five habits of successful people in this article that even
we can follow and can make our New Year and entire life happy and better. And
can become successful.
1.
High self-Concept:
When I was a child, I went shopping. At that time, a shop owner has told me something. Why he said, what the
reason was, I had no clue. But I still remember his words clearly, which was, “Dear
son, you have a really bright future. You will do a lot in Life.” Listening to this
made me feel so great that I can't express what my feeling was. My innocent
little brain considered it as a fact and even my self-concept formed that way. Yes
I will surely do something great and so a lot in life. From that two-line
statement I had created so many positive meanings because of which my
self-concept has increased a lot. Even, for now, I have the same self-concept. As I
know that yes, I will do a lot and great things in my life. Similarly, many experiences
take place in our life, some positive experience and some negative which create
and form different Self-concepts in us from childhood whose impact sometimes
remains in our life forever. Suppose if our subconscious brain is a computer
then Self-Concept will be its master program which works as a brain Operating
system. Our actions, feelings, and also our achievement depends on the Self
Concept. The Self-Concept which your subconscious
brain has created only that much achievement you can get in any part of your
life. Example: If your self-concept is related to money is that
you can earn only 30 thousand per month, not more than that. So in reality also,
you will able to earn only 30 thousand per month, not more than that. On the
Another side supposes if you lose your job and you get a chance to join another
job at low income. Then your brain will come up with different ideas and will
make you do hard work to reach up to 30 thousand. One more example
for the same perspective, No matter how good a speaker you are since childhood but if
you think that at the stage you will deliver a bad speech. Because of this self-concept,
there is a lot of chance that you will give a bad speech and will continue
giving a bad speech until you change your self-concept. Because the fact is, No
matter how good and capable you are in any field, If your self-concept is low,
you will not able to perform anything nicely even if you are capable enough.
Hence always remember habit no.1 and always try to keep Self Concept high.
2.
Self-Discipline:
I had a negative perception of
discipline. Maybe due to school’s forceful discipline or maybe because I have seen in Bollywood
movies, those who follow discipline are usually bad and boring, And a cool dude or a cool protagonist never
follow discipline, But the actual reality is the world’s coolest and successful
people follow the discipline and it is the main reason for them to become
successful. I have no idea, how exactly you take self-discipline as but the
best definition for this has been given by Elbert Hubbert which is, Self-Discipline is the ability to
make yourself do, what you should do when you should do it, whether you feel,
like it or not. Suppose you decide that
from tomorrow you will get up early in the morning by 6 am. So doing this
requires more Self-discipline than motivation. Because through motivation you
will get up at once, twice or maybe a week. But with self-discipline, you will
follow it through Lifetime because of which your self-esteem and confidence
will also increase. Because Self Discipline impacts a lot on self-esteem. After
taking a serious decision, the maximum action you will take, the more
confidence will increase and the more successful you can become. This is the
habit which helps rich people to finish their work on time and to move ahead in
their life. So habit no 2 with the use of repetition for self-discipline in
your selves.
3.
Feed Mind with mental protein:
Just like our body, even our brain
requires a proper diet for its best performance. Here, diet doesn't mean
anything related to food, here it means mental things that our brain
consumes daily like information, knowledge. If you want your brain
to work to make you happy, successful and to make you move ahead in life and not
by making you sad lazy, and unsuccessful then you always need to give your brain
positive information and knowledge. Do not give your brain negative information,
which is given by the media nowadays. You must know that sports cars like
Ferrari, Lamborghini, and many other luxurious cars never advertised themselves
on television. Why…….? Because they know that people who are capable enough to
take that car will not waste their time on watching Television meaning they do
not fill their brain with unhealthy diets, such as negativity shown in media and
television. Because they knew this will not help them in long term, instead it
will consume their time and bring negativity to them. Hence the most common
habit which every successful person follows and even you have to follow it, always give your brains a healthy and positive
diet such as positive information and knowledge
Now you are reading this article means you want to improve your life and
want to make it better which is a very positive thing. Usually people open
YouTube to watch entertainment kinds of stuff, which is not so wrong. But all these
things are like junk food. Watching it sometimes is right but if we consume it
daily or maximum time, it will make our brain negative and unhealthy which will
reduce our chances of becoming successful.
4.
Daily Goal Setting:
To achieve any goal managing our
time properly is the most important point. The author says, if our life is a solar
system then time management is a sun and everything is a planet that revolves
around the sun. Hence if we learn to manage our time properly, it becomes
easier for us to achieve our goals. How we should do proper time management?
Before going to sleep, decide and make a list in which put down all the work
which you need to finish tomorrow and for sure write that one task which will
help you to reach closer to your goal. This Habit will surely take you forward
in life.
5.
Health Orientation:
There is one difference between
successful and unsuccessful people, which I have noticed many times. Successful
people always take care of their health by doing yoga exercise and by doing proper
diet whereas unsuccessful people never take care of their health while working
and doing hard work they forget about their health which results after few
years their health begins to deteriorate, eventually they become sick. You must
have noticed, nowadays people are seen more at doctors place, at hospitals. Because
of it, they waste their time and money, for which they work so hard and destroy
their precious health, then again money and time they used to get back their
health. Even I used to think of diet and exercise as wastage and rich people's
tantrums and show off. But later I had realized that all these things are very
important in our life no matter how rich and successful we become, if our
health is not proper, we will not feel good and happy even if we stay in the world's most beautiful
bungalow or ride any luxurious car. Successful people know how important
health is hence they always take care of their health. They know if they will
be healthy then only they will feel happy and energetic and can give their100%
concentration at work which will give them the best results and will help them
to move ahead in life. So I personally request
you all start taking care of your health, do exercise to make yourself
physically fit and strong, and do Yoga to make yourself mentally active and
peaceful. These things will help you to give your 100 % and will help you to
become successful. I have shared this knowledge with you all from the book “Million
Dollar Habits” by Brain Tracy. In this book, the author has explained many
useful habits that will help you to become successful. So if you want to
understand everything in detail, you can buy this book and read it and Finally
