Success Habits

What one thing could you do today to improve your business

and professional success? What difference to your life

would this make if it became a habit?

Forming habits which become ingrained will yield results.

I've hesitated to say the results you really want because

it depends on what you're doing. Are your habits keeping

you stuck or are they moving you forwards? If one of your

habits is spending too much time planning and not enough

time doing, then you're not likely to achieve your desired

results.

To break unproductive habits but to add habits which will

move you forward is one of the goals of coaching. These

daily habits can be fairly small but will gradually amount

to something much bigger. Let's take the example of

someone who needs to make telephone calls to further their

business. A habit to break may be spending too much time

thinking about each call, putting it off, or finding other

things to do. The new habit to introduce may be to make 3

telephone calls a day or to identify the one daily

telephone call which will have the biggest impact on your

business. I encourage you to identify and introduce one

daily habit into your business or professional life. Keep

it small to start with and as your feeling of success

increases, you can add to it. Your success lies with the

actions you take each day.

What do you need to be doing on a consistent basis that will

have a dramatic effect on your life and business?

What is stopping you from doing this?

In what ways could you overcome this, go around it or approach

it differently?

I challenge you to add one success habit this week.

Balance

Balance.

Many of us work, work, work and then work some more and

never totally disengage. We are driven by our desire to

succeed and grow our businesses. We work hard and we love it

so often it does not feel like "work."

But the truth is we are hurting ourselves and our

businesses.

By disengaging completely from work, we will come back to it

refreshed and rejuvenated with better ideas for business

growth.

Even more important than our business life, though, is our

personal life. We need to spend time with the people who

mean the most to us who we love. Not just through a physical

presence but with emotional and mental presence.

When we get to the end of our lives, it is our relationships

that will matter most, not how big our business is or how

much dee-nero we have in the bank.

Jim Rohn says it perfectly when he talks about achieving

some of his early "success", "Had I known in advance the

price I'd have to pay, I would have never paid that price."

Think about it.
