3 Daily Success Habits That Transformed My Business...and My Life!
Over the past several years I have immersed myself in personal development. My business is small business development and marketing. So most of the talks I give are on those subjects. But the more I explored personal growth and development the more I saw the connection between those small business owners who really take off a soar and the level of personal work they have done.
Why?
Your business will grow and expand in direct proportion to your willingness to grow and expand. Actually you must work harder on yourself than any other part of your business.
These are 3 Daily Habits I use that I learned on my personal growth path. I want to share them with you because they have helped to catapult my success.
1. Make Decisions Based Upon Who You Are Becoming Rather Than Who
You Are Now.
Once you know exactly what you want in your life, it's time to live from that place. This includes thinking, acting, dressing and most importantly feeling like the person who has achieved what you are intending. Study those who have reached your goal. Notice their confidence, their willingness to ask for what they want and to say no to what they do not want. Notice their generosity. Put these attributes in place in your own life and you will attract to you the very thing you want.
2. Surround Yourself With People Who Are Performing At The Level You
Want To Perform
Jim Rohn says that you are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with. (Yikes!) Are you spending time with peole who are complaining about the weather and how broke they are? Add some new friends and peers to your group. Get out and meet people who are making things happen in the world. The best place to find them is at seminars and workshops. Successful people never settle for mediocrity. They invest in themselves and are continuously learning. You must also,. if you want to reach your goals.
3. Make Sure To Create Your Environments To Support Your Bigger Game
We always adapt to our environments. And our environments are always a reflection of who we are on the inside. This ongoing exchange powerfully creates our results. One quick way to expedite change is to makeover your environment. You can do this yourself with a quick check list or hire a professional organizer to assist you. Here is a sample of the check list I use. Once you have completed this test and cleaned up your environments, do a quick daily check in to make sure you are keeping yourself heading toward what you want!
Physical:
Is my car, home and office clutter free?
Are they a bold expression of who I am and the goals I have set for myself?
Do they pass the "I love it" test?
Consciousness:
Do I carefully filter everything I watch, read and listen to?
Have I let go of my limiting beliefs?
Do I have access to the information I need when I want it?
Self:
Do I know your unique talents and strengths?
Do I use them to reach my goals each day?
Am I authentic and confident about who I am?
Do I consider myself worthy to be loved, cared for and nurtured?
Body:
My clothing, hairstyle, eye glasses look great and reflect who I am.
My physical energy is high.
My body is strong and fit.
I am in excellent physical health.
The combination of these 3 simple success habits will help you stay focused on creating your business success and support you in living a joyful life!
