Half-Dozen Rules for Success

[maxshapira]

After reading and listening to innumerable self-development/entrepreneurship content, it all comes to half-dozen rules for success:

1. Be David Blaine​

Like David Blaine, you have the power to trick minds. But it comes with a kicker—it works only with YOURS. Trick your mind and become a winner in your own thoughts. "Believe in yourself" might sound like an old cliché but it's not. You are the foundation. Only you can start the engine.

2. Read Books​

As Will Smith said, "there’s no new problem that someone hasn’t already had and written about it in a book." But here's a caveat: Reading books won't make you successful unless you'll perform steady actions. Put the knowledge into practice. We're living in a world that execution triumphs everything. Read, think, and take action.

3. Exercise​

A weak body yields a weak mind. Exercise at least 3 times a week. You will feel good about yourself, you'll think clearly, and make better decisions. Don't skip exercise.

4. Reach For The Moon​

Dream big and reach for the moon. That's why setting goals is so crucial. It took me a long time to realize that, but if you don't write down your goals — they don't exist. And don't be afraid to set the bar high. It's OK because the purpose of a goal is not to achieve a result but to inform the person you want to become. Jim Rohn put it like this, "The major value in life is not what you get. The major value in life is what you become."

5. The ONE Thing​

What's your ONE Thing? For Michael Phelps it was swimming, so he spent 6 hours in the water every single day. For Arnold Schwarzenegger it was bodybuilding, so he trained 6 hours a day, 6 times a week. James Patterson, it's all about writing, so he writes for around 6-7 hours every day. Michael Jackson, "King of Pop", practiced dancing in front of a mirror for 6-8 hours. Everyday. The ability to focus on ONE Thing consistently will have the biggest impact on your success. Say 'NO' 99% of the time to protect your ONE Thing. Kenneth Cole sums it perfectly, "Success has less to do with what we can get ourselves to do and more to do with keeping ourselves from doing what we shouldn’t."

6. Do Your Best​

More than expected. Always.
John Wooden said it best, "Success is peace of mind, that is a direct result of knowing that you've done your best at becoming the best you are capable of becoming."
