Winning and losing have some things in common: they are both habits. You probably know somebody that can't win at the game of life, no matter how many benefits he's offered. You also probably know someone that's the reverse. He wins at everything, despite the fact that he does not appear to have any benefits.
Be the winner! Develop the practices that enable you to win consistently:
1. Set objectives. You can't win if you do not define the game. Know exactly what you're attempting to achieve. Set clear objectives with sensible deadlines. Develop a target that you find motivating and exciting. Select the target, but be versatile in your methods for attaining the objective.
2. Develop habits that support your goals. Discipline and self-discipline are in limited supply. Use them to develop the habits and practices you must have to reach your objectives. Once you develop a habit, self-control ends up being unnecessary.
For example, if your goal is to lose 25 lbs, develop eating and exercise habits. If your objective is to find the man of your dreams, establish a habit of speaking to every appealing man you come in contact with.
3. Take out the trash. Our lives have many things that get in the way. They can be possessions, activities, or even individuals. Eliminate the garbage from your life. Make room for success and minimize the challenges and diversions you face.
4. Get assistance. You can achieve a lot by yourself. You can achieve much more with assistance. It's very likely that someone has already accomplished the same objective that you are trying to accomplish. Get help from them, or even see if they will be your mentor.
Wouldn't it make good sense to obtain some guidance since you're taking the exact same journey? There's no need to reinvent the wheel. Take advantage of the mistakes others have made before you.
5. Accept complete responsibility. You're ultimately responsible for your very own success. Even if you have a coach, it's still your obligation. Be comfortable with this. It suggests that you have control.
6. Accept failure. Failing is just getting an outcome you didn't intend. Failures are opportunities to perfect your approach. The more you fail, the more effective you'll end up being.
Everybody fails. However, it is very important not to repeat your failures. Make sure you're learning something each time you fail.
7. Use your time wisely. Time is the supreme equalizer. Kings, CEOs, instructors, trainees, and ditch diggers all have 24 hours every day. Utilizing these hours carefully is the key. Are you investing your time carefully or squandering it? The most successful people are those who take advantage of their 24 hours.
8. Continue to acquire knowledge. Better understanding results in you making more efficient choices. Spend a couple of hours each week learning something that you can use towards accomplishing your goals.
9. Persevere. Winners never give up. By the same token, you can't lose if you do not quit. Simply keep on going. You'll eventually win as long as you're willing to persist. If you quit, you've lost.
Develop the habit of perseverance in your life. When you have the urge to stop an activity, keep going until that activity is finished. It might be folding the laundry, pulling weeds, or dealing with a report for work. Stick with jobs even after you feel the desire to stop. The habit will also transfer to other activities.
Are you all set to be a winner? Winning is the outcome of having objectives, developing helpful habits, and persisting until success is accomplished. Winning isn't more work than losing. The work is just different. Begin today to establish the practices you need to win consistently.
