3 Easy Habits to Help You Achieve the Success You Desire (According to 5-Year Study)

Abe Brown, MBA

Your dreams matter. You deserve to live the life of your dreams. However, many of us hold on to faulty assumptions that keep us poor. And in order to break free and live the life of your dreams, it requires you to let go of these assumptions and step into the life you’re meant to live. But that then leads us to the question: What assumptions are keeping us poor? And how can we break them? Well, I’ll tell you what, the main assumption many people seem to believe is…

Assuming That Success Is Not About Habits

The Science on this is clear: As much as 95% of everything we do is not governed by conscious thought. But rather, it is determined by our habitual or subconscious thoughts. That means that most of what we do is not something we’re proactively thinking about. Instead, the “thought process” is taking place subconsciously.?

So if most of what you do is subconscious, the question now becomes: How can you change your subconscious??

Because here’s the deal…

If you can change your subconscious, you can change your habits. And if you can change your habits, you can change your life. But what are some of these habits you can engage in? Well, there is a guy named Thomas Corely who spent 5 years studying both successful and unsuccessful people.?

And he discovered several pillars of the self-made wealthy. Now, there are over a dozen habits Corely identified; however, we’ll be covering the 3 most important habits in this article.?

1. They Spend At Least 30 Minutes Daily In Career-Related Learning

You might say, “I don’t have the money to go to Harvard.” Hey neither do I. But could you take 30 minutes a day reading articles like this? Or watching videos that can accelerate your career? Or learning from a mentor who can grow your business? Absolutely you could! And the best part? If you have an internet connection, you also have access to all of humanity’s information.

And the only problem with that is it comes with many distractions such as Netflix, social media, etc. And look, I’m not anti any of that stuff. But the question you should ask is: Is the entertainment you’re engaging in the best use of your time?

2. They Focus On Their Health And Fitness

Another habit of these self-made wealthy people was that they were healthy. Now, that doesn’t mean they were fitness fanatics. They weren’t in the gym 3 hours a day 7 days a week. However, they did make their fitness a priority. And they looked like 4 workouts a week (at least) for about 30 minutes each workout.?

And Thomas found that made all the difference because when you work on your physical health, it also connects to your emotional and mental health. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve felt depressed, discouraged, or skunked. But once I hit the trail for 5 to minutes, all of a sudden I begin thinking clearly.?

Movement can shift your mindset, and your mindset will shift everything else within your life. Here’s another thing wealthy people had…

3. They Put Effort Into Their Relationships With Quality People

Here’s the problem with relationships when you’re poor: relationships become a transaction. Many times these relationships only get rekindled when someone in either party needs/wants something.? But in Thomas’ research, he found the wealthy were much more proactive in terms of their connections. They were reaching out and spending time in healthy relationships.?

The late great Jim Rohn said it like this:

“If you show me your 5 closest friends, I can show you your destiny.”

And I have seen that over and over again in my own life. Birds of the same feather will always flock together. But when you elevate your circle, you will naturally elevate your life. So you have to get into a circle of high-quality people who either have the outcomes you want, or who are on the path toward those outcomes.?
