Feels good, doesn’t it? |
Success. Many people want it but the fact of the matter is that not many people achieve it. Most people do not know the traits that are required to become successful neither do they want it hard enough. Successful people want success more than anything and they will do anything it takes to achieve it, they will not make excuses, they will just do it.
In this article we will list the different things that successful people do and the things you can learn from these highly successful people. Be sure to implement the things these successful people do because it will make your life more fulfilling and much more productive. Lets get started:
7. Never Give Up
Successful people never ever give up. Whenever they are faced with obstacles they surpass them and remove all barriers. Even when faced with failure or rejection, they never give up. Famous failures include Walt Disney who got fired from a newspaper firm for lacking imagination and having no original ideas. Kind of ironic, isn’t it? He went on to revolutionise the American animation industry and created a billion dollar empire. Learn from Michael Jordan’s quote, “I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed”
This is a very important one in my opinion. Most people think if they get to a certain stage in their life, they will stop learning. But learning is a lifelong process. It doesn’t matter if your 6 years of age or 60, you should always be learning. Ask any successful person and they will tell you they are continuously learning and trying to improve themselves. Learning and improving can be done in many ways, through books, audio tapes, seminars, videos, magazines, etc.
5. They dream BIG
They have big dreams and do not settle for anything else. They make sure thy get what they set out to get. If they want something, they will get it. And you have to adapt the same philosophy. Back in 1976, a much younger Arnold Schwarzenegger was doing an interview for his movie ‘Stay Hungry‘ , when a journalist asks him what he plans to do now that he has retired from bodybuilding. His reply, “I’m going to be the number-one box-office star in all of Hollywood.” Now back then this idea was farfetched. Here’s a man who is not originally from America and has an accent. But he went on to become an International action superstar with hits such as The Terminator and Predator. Here’s a clip of a guy doing his best Schwarzenegger impression.
