Have you ever wondered why successful people are so successful? Habits play an essential role in shaping our lives. We all know that bad habits can be harmful to your mental and physical well-being. 【小题1】 Good habits, on the other hand, can help you rise above others and be at your best. So, what are the common habits of successful persons that set them apart from the rest of us?

【小题2】 Most successful figures spend half an hour or more on newspapers, magazines and other books on a daily basis. Most of them have a preference for non-fiction piece that include history, self-help books, and biographies.

Getting up early. The majority of successful people rise approximately 3 hours before their actual workday starts. It gives them adequate time to get additional things done, which may include completing side projects, working out, or just planning ahead. 【小题3】

Working out and staying in shape. We all know the benefits of a healthy lifestyle especially working out and staying physically fit. 【小题4】 Clearing your mind and challenging yourself physically with a tough workout daily helps you stay ready for the daily challenges of a business. To sum it up, a strong body carries a strong mind.

Working on communication skills. Communication plays a key role in building constructive interpersonal relationships on a personal as well as on a professional level. 【小题5】 However, if you are unable to convey the right information and message in a timely manner, you are less likely to achieve your goals. As with other skills, it is vital to continuously work on improving communication to help you stay more efficient while communicating with anyone on any level.

Change is hard for many people to accept. However, it’s worth keeping in mind that one part of growing as a person requires you to accept that life is constantly changing. 【小题1】 You need to be able to deal with these changes in a positive way.

First of all, you should understand that change is an unavoidable part of life. Before the time comes for you to accept change, learn that it is necessary for old things to go and new things to come. 【小题2】 The entire history of the world and the history of human progress are decided by change and development.

【小题3】 Even though change can have a negative effect on your life, in most cases, there is always something positive to look at. Use this as an opportunity to turn a loss or negative change into an opportunity.

Last of all, try to understand why change upsets you so much. It’s hard to change and accept it if you’re unclear why it makes you so uncomfortable or unsettled. 【小题4】 This, as a result, might help stop some of your anxiety about change. Consider the following: 【小题5】 Does the change make you feel like everything you know about the world is falling apart? Does breaking up with a significant other make you feel as if you’re too emotionally fragile and lacking a support system?

Many people think you’re either a creative person or you’re not. While I agree that some people may be slightly more creative than others, I think creativity is a muscle that can be exercised and improved upon. 【小题1】

1. Consume content outside your comfort zone.

We all love reading about stuff in our industry. 【小题2】 . If you want to get your creative juices flowing, start consuming content you wouldn’t normally consume. Read blogs outside of your industry. Read books outside of your normal choice. Or grab lunch with a complete stranger.

2. Do the “No Bad Ideas Brainstorming” exercise.

Get at least one other person to join you for a 45-60 minute brainstorm. No technology and no criticism. Bring a topic or idea to the table and write down all your ideas(on actual paper). 【小题3】 . It’s important to do this in person and to make absolutely sure you don’t have any negative energy or feedback throughout the process. You may end up with 100 horrible ideas, but I bet you’ll have one or two good ones.

3. 【小题4】 .

There are studies upon studies that discuss how our diet affects the way we think. Want to start thinking differently? Start giving your body different(and healthier) fuel. You’d be shocked how much more creatively you can think and act when you eat a healthier diet.

4. See a movie in a theater.

Movies on the big scene are one of the last few places you can enjoy a complete sensory experience. The giant bright screen. The thundering surround sound. The smell and taste of fresh popcorn. The somewhat uncomfortable seat with plastic armrests that don’t move. 【小题5】 .
