Daily Success Habits - What are YOURS???

[Teli]

Great thread and great participation. Thank you, Linda, for participating and for getting others involved.

I love your habits, especially the "paying it forward" one. It didn't occur to me while I was writing mine, but it's definitely a biggie. It's simply amazing what happens when you take a bit of time to help someone else, or offer someone else support. It doesn't take much time and not only will you help yourself succeed, but you could be helping someone else do the same.

Dorian, excellent points. Remaining focused throughout the day is a must. Though I've tried (and failed miserably) at the exercise first thing in the morning, I find that excercising in the evening is perfect for me. So, if anyone else is doing the exercise thing, make sure to find a time that's best for you.

Tony, you will get there. You sound like you're tenacious and that's half the battle. Though I rarely work from a Starbucks (or coffee shop), I do work from my patio occasionally and having a laptop definitely makes it much easier. Save those pennies and invest in one (plus, it'll be a nice tax write off if you use it exclusively for work . *IANAA, please consult one.) ROFL

Lisa, your story is inspiring! Random checks -- that made me giggle. I'm glad to see someone who's making it because others who aren't quite making it yet can look to you and see that it's certainly possible.

Hi Linda -

I've posted my version at My Daily Success Habits at Affiliate Tip Blog by Shawn Collins

You'd better watch out - now I'm going to have to tag you in the future.

Hey Shawn,

I saw your blog in my feed reader before I got to the forum today.
So glad you played along. Enjoyed reading your tips!

I too hate memes like this, but this one is a good one that everyone can
learn from so thanks for taking the time!

Came across this thread that invigorates me that I want this to be my first post since joining this forum. Thanks Linda for starting the thread

Here's my success habits which I've implemented since last year and strongly believe it will help me attain my goal:

1. Gratitude (coincidentally same as Linda's post ) and realize it's also one of the most important success habits mentioned in "The Secret" for Law Of Attraction to work (just been exposed to "The Secret" last month, watched the DVD 2 weeks ago)
2. Focus - to ensure my mind stay focused on what I want out of my life, and not let outside factors to distract me
3. Visualize - In the morning, will start my day visualizing my attainment of the goals I set for myself and the feelings it invoke
4. Persistence - Never give up though on occasions, I still do not see the results I'm expecting but never give up the belief that I will
5. Patient - To be patient that the results I want will be achieved

Saw Linda's comment on "Pay It Forward" which reminds me of the movie (can't remember if it's the Movie title as well) and I'm going to incorporate this to my success habits too. Thanks, Linda

Wow Janice!

Great 1st post! Way to jump in and get your feet wet.

Did you realize you ALREADY did PAY IT FORWARD????

Many people join 5 Star hoping to GET!
They try to self promote in their 1st thread or intro
OR they ask help for a problem they are having.
(Which is totally fine and part of what this forum is here for.)

HOWEVER the 1st thing you did here was GIVE!
The more you give, the more you get and you paid it forward!
So here's hoping we can repay you 10 fold for your participation.

Welcome to 5 Star!!!

Hi Linda

Thank you for the WARM welcome and it's great to know I've implemented the "Pay It Forward" success habits unknowingly

Hi everyone,

Glad that there is such a thread.

My success habits are:-

(1) Feeling Gratitude towards my love ones & my current circumstances

(2) Visualize my real reality (that is to stay at home with my little girl)

(3) Plan my work at office so that I can be efficient and effective and leave
on dot

(4) Putting action into my part time business to match my positive emotion when I am visualizing in the morning.

(5) Smile when I am sleeping as I know I am getting more successful each day and feeling what I am doing current is in total alignment of what I wish to be.


I wouldn't say it is not tough to sleep only 4-5 hrs a day but I will say I am willing to sacrifice sleep to have my success.

I have learnt so much from The Secret movie and knew I am going the right track to dedicate my life to spreading the awareness of Law of Attraction. Eveyone of us has the ability to create a better tomorrow.

Cheers, Karen

Hey Guys,

I see the last reply to this thread was over two years ago, but I think it's a really cool thread so I'm replying anyhow lol...

This is my daily routine/habit. I slip up sometimes, but I really try to start each day this way:

1) Gratitude. I try to think of everything I have, as opposed to all the things I want and don't yet have. No point in that. I try to feel good and give thanks for all the things I love about myself, and my family, my friends, anything I can think of.

2) I watch two very short videos from "the Secret" website. One is "the Secret to You", and the other is "the Secret to Riches". Corny? Absolutely, but it puts me in a positive / feel good / the universe is my best friend kinda vibe

3) I read, out loud (although quietly so my girlfriend doesn't think I am more crazy than I am) something I wrote after reading Think and Grow Rich. It is my "Chief Aim in Life". I try to read it with emotion and faith and belief, so it sinks into my subconscious eventually. Call me nutty but I really do believe in the teachings of that book. I read through it and refer back to it constantly.

4) Hit the gym. I am usually up at 5:40 AM during the week. After all the steps above, I get to the gym around 6:15. I work out 5x a week, and I find it is crucial to me keeping a positive mindset. It clears my head and by the time I am finished at around 7:15 or 7:30, I feel like I have already accomplished something positive for the day.

5) I work on learning PPC Affiliate Marketing (after a shower and coffee lol) until around 9:30 AM. I work for a California based company, and run the office out of my apartment, so I am lucky enough to make my own hours (as long as I am SELLING of course). After 9:30 I switch gears to the day job. Around 12:30, I change hats again, eat lunch and study for an hour or so. Then it is BACK to the day job, until around 6 or so. At night, you guessed it, the PPC hat goes back on and I do that until I feel utterly burnt. Some days that happens quicker than others, but I try and keep my eye on the prize and stay positive all day long.

6) Throughout the day, I try and visualize what my life is going to be like when it gets to where I want it. I try and make myself FEEL like I already have that life

7) Before bed I re-read my "Chief Aim in Life" out loud again, and try to go to bed in as positive a mind frame as possible.

There it is....hope everyone is having a great weekend

Lot's of awsome food for thought here!

I have these "Brandyisms" I have developed over the years.....here are a few!

1. No matter what the sun is guarenteed to rise the following morning!

2. You can fix everything in life but death.....and that we are not truly sure of.

3. When something bad happens to you.....it is the worst thing in the world....emerse yourself in a pity party, dust yourself off and move forward!

4. Give without the expectation of getting anything in return

5. We all know more than we conciously acknowledge

6. The hardest thing in life is to be honest with yourself.....we hear our parents voices, friends, society, past experiences.....take a few quiet moments every day....and listen to that voice inside, that is the core of your honesty which will lead you to where you want to go or keep you on the happy path you are strolling down currently.

7. Feel sorry for mean people, they hate themselves more than they hate you.

I think you guys should have your little fill for now......but something which we try and do at our home at least once a week is go around the table (I even do this with guests) and say a couple of things we are thankful for. I think when you are put on the spot.....what is really important to you comes to the forefront which allows you to really honor yourself and your personal path.


Sweet Slumber Everyone!
