As you might imagine, being a transformational life and leadership coach brings with it a great responsibility to research and investigate the latest findings and implementations of self realization work that is seemingly everywhere nowadays. I try and put things into practice first before spreading them to my clients or unleashing the information on The New Age Nerd. Another criteria I use before sharing information in this area of my calling is to see how it resonates deep within my Being. Basic stuff really. Does it make sense and is it practical to most people who make up my audience and client base.
One thing I do believe with all my heart is that two of the most common traits of the most successful and iconoclastic individuals amongst is is laser like focus and keeping small daily habits that others simply do not do for a myriad of reasons.
I read several books a month and am always taking diligent notes on criteria and hard fought wisdom from today's master's in the self transformational world to see what they have discovered and are currently implementing in their own life and the lives of their clients. Having said that, I would like to introduce you to the Top Ten action steps that seem to be the most common habits of the super successful! It is my hope that you will incorporate as many of them as you can into your own daily regime to assist you in achieving the goals and in turn the happiness you desire in life!
So are you ready for the list?! Great, cause here we go!!
1. Institute a Healthy Lifestyle
2. Have a Long term Mindset
Nothing of value happens overnight. So our minutes and habits must be for the long term.
Simliar to dieting, if you do not change your eating as a new lifestyle, you will gain all your weight back. Healthy mindsets should be something you are NOT something you do! Capich?! Great!!
3. Create a Consistent Morning Routine
4. Learn to delegate as many of their tasks as possible.
5. Take decisive and immediate action.
So listen up you procrastinators. The uber successful know that constant action changes things dramatically!! And I suggest you learn this as well...... ;0)
6. Focus on being productive, not being just busy.
In his book, The 4-Hour Workweek, Tim Ferris says, “Slow down and remember this: Most things make no difference. Being busy is often a form of mental laziness – lazy thinking and indiscriminate action.” This is Ferris’ way of saying “work smarter, not harder,” which happens to be one of the most prevalent modern day personal development clichés. But like most clichés, there’s a great deal of truth to it, and few people actually adhere to it. Just take a quick look around. The busy outnumber the productive by a wide margin. 7. They have given up on the notion of perfection. 8. Learn to work out of your comfort zone as often as possible! 9. Learn from your missteps. In fact, they do not think of their blunders as mistakes but rather missteps that are simply wonderful learning lessons along their path! 10. Start hanging out with people who support and inspire you and your dreams.
I believe this is a wonderful list of very easily implementable action steps we can all put into place in our daily routines! I would love to hear your thoughts on other habits you have found to be productive in your own life!
