Do you ever find yourself frustrated with other people who are making amazing progress in their life? The kind who seem to "have it all"?
The people that have great social relationships?
The ones in great health and the ones who have strong bodies?
The people who have money to buy everything they want?
And they make it look like it’s easy too! Everything always turns out in their favor.
Do you want to know their secret?
Observation
Have you ever wondered why these people have it so easy while you have to hustle for everything you want? Does it look like they get everything they want, presented on a silver platter? Well now, I’ve found the answer to all these questions!
Do you want to know why they have it so easy? I’ll tell you!
They don’t.
People who make their life seem like a breeze can be either two things;
- They genuinely have an easy life.
(In which case you shouldn’t envy them anyway since they won’t learn the value of hard work and diligence until it’s too late.) - They have empowering habits.
Now the people who belong to the second category are the ones who are really interesting to learn from. I believe that our life is the sum of our habits. If we have destructive habits (smoking, drinking, excessive spending, bad social skills, addictions, etc.) the results will show up in our life.
On the other hand, when we have empowering habits, there’s no telling what successes lie in our future.
I’ve touched upon this topic in another article called "Have A Life Worth Living! (Walk The Narrow Road)."
For example:
- Beethoven would carry around sheets of music paper and a pencil whenever he took long vigorous walks, in case an idea struck him.
- Sigmund Freud kept psychoanalytic journals in which he would write down his latest findings and ideas.
- Charles Darwin would routinely make three walks a day in order to contemplate on the things he studied and to structure his thoughts.
These are just a few examples of well-known people who have reached their fame and success by cultivating these good habits. Case in point, empowering habits are really important!
Implementation
I’ve written another post on this topic a long time ago called, "The 8 Elemental Habits Of Successful People (That You Need To Have)." Although I still agree with many points of the post, I’ve gotten the feeling that list is far from complete.
Over the past months, I’ve been implementing and experimenting with new habits like a maniac in order to see which ones are the most valuable ones (I’m still doing this to this day).
