Habits
How many of us have them?
Why are some people world class performers while others are not? And why are some people able to smash five year goals in five months while others take substantially longer? Is it because top-performers have created world-class habits?
Tim Ferris says, “Success, however you define it, is achievable if you collect the right field-tested beliefs and habits.” Here are 10 inauspicious habits to get rid of in 2020.
1. Destroy Bad Habits Such As Checking Social Media All Day for Quick Dopamine Fixes
Turn off your notifications from social media apps and focus on completing tasks for the day.
2. Stop Checking Email All Day
3. Stop Comparing Yourself To Others
It is effortless to compare yourself to others especially when everyone wants to post their most exhilarating moments on social media. But STOP!
4. Stop Wasting Energy On the Wrong People
It’s paramount in business to surrounding yourself with high-achievers and like-minded people.
5. Eliminate Your Habit Of Making Excuses For Not Hitting Your Goals
Stop limiting your potential We stop challenging ourselves to the extent where we are said to be lazy. When you want something bad enough, you will do whatever it takes to get it done.
6. Stop Talking As Much; Listen More
7. Stop Dabbling And Not Going ‘ALL IN’
You can't want to be great and do shit half-ass. The greats do not dabble. They go all in, no matter their age. It's like I tell my daughter "if you're going to do it don't half-ass it put your whole ass into it."
8. Information Overload & Stop Waiting For Someone To Hold Your Hand.
When you have invested in mentorship, programs, books, services, and more, then it’s time to analyze and refine where have you accumulated relevant knowledge and start executing. No one is going do the work for you. You can be inspired but, you need to take action on your goals first. Make shit happen!
9. Not Stepping Outside Of Your Comfort Zone
Everything you've ever wanted is one step outside your comfort-zone. Growth is an inherent part of the natural world. And in order for you to grow you have to step out your comfort zone. Think about it you can't expect changes in your life to happen if you're not willing to put in the work and step out of your comfort zone.
10. Stop Putting Your Health Last: See What I Did There?
Some entrepreneurs and us just as women get caught up in their businesses/work and/or family and put their health last… like I have done. Like seriously this past holiday season I was down nearly two weeks with a cold which flared up my asthma. In the bed for one week straight never left the house until it was time to go to the Anita Baker concert. LOL! And I wasn’t missing that so I bundled up looking like a kid going out on snow day. After a long talked with my partner & him being on me about taking care of myself. I vowed to myself that my health needs to be a priority. So far I feel more productive and energized throughout the day. Still getting broken sleep here and there, but overall I feel better.
In full disclosure, for some of these habits like prioritizing health consistently, I continue to strive for. It’s something I work on each and every day to get better in life and business. And you can as well.
