Quotes
Successful people have all the resources

Success
healthy. They can afford lipo, Botox and spa

retreats. And yet exercise is still a part of
their daily habits. Why?
Yes, exercise keeps you fit and all that, but it

also keeps your brain healthy, minimizes
stress, and improves memory. In fact, using
too much work as an excuse not to exercise
is counterproductive. Studies show that
exercise can boost creativity and productivity
by as much as two hours. It makes you
smarter, too.

eb-white-quote
What separates professionals from

wannabes? Pros work, even when they dont
feel like it.
E.B. White, author of Charlottes Web,

famously said, A writer who waits for ideal
conditions under which to work will die
without putting a word on paper. That
applies to us all, whatever your occupation
is.
Next time you dont feel like working, keep

calm and use the Force. And by that, I
mean, force yourself to work for just 15
minutes then see what happens. Usually,
those 15 minutes will be enough to give you
some momentum.
12/28/2015 1:12 PM
If that doesnt work, spend 30 minutes

breaking down the task into its basic
components, and then do the items one at a
time until you finish the whole task.
6. Quiet Your Monkey

Brain
Studies suggest meditation alleviates
anxiety, pain and prevent depression. It can
also improve your ability to focus instead of
getting overwhelmed with everything thats
happening around you. Thats what
happened to Arnold Schwarzenegger when
he had a habit of doing transcendental
meditations in the 70s.
Unfortunately, quieting the mind doesnt

come as naturally to many of us. So for
beginners, you can create the habit of
meditating by concentrating on your breath
for 3-5 minutes, which is the average starting
point of new meditators using Lift.
If random thoughts keep popping in your

head, give your monkey brain something to
chew on by chanting Om Namah Shivaya (I
honor the divinity within me).

7. Minimize Distractions
by Batch Checking
Emails (and Social
Media) Twice a Day
Tim Ferris is famous for suggesting this in
his book, The 4-Hour Work Week. Reading
and answering emails doesnt make you
productive. If anything, youre just being
responsive.
To minimize distractions, Ferris recommends

checking email twice a day: 11 AM and 4PM,
or after youve completed at least one critical
item in your to-do list, and once more before
the end of your workday.
8. Donate
12/28/2015 1:12 PM
10 of 17
Successful people allot time to give back to

their community by working with charities,
volunteering and donating. Tom Corley,
author of Wealthy Habits: The Daily Success
Habits of Wealthy Individuals, states that
73% of the 233 wealthy people he studied
for 5 years volunteer 5+ hours a month. Bill
Gates, Oprah Winfrey, Mark Zuckerberg, all
donate to different causes.
Not rich? No problem. Volunteer at your local

soup kitchen, help at the nursing home, or
teach kids to read. Many times, your time
and the pleasure of your company is
enough.
9. Deliberate Practice
and Hard Work
mark-cuban-quote
12/28/2015 1:12 PM
Serena Williams wakes up at 6 AM to

practice tennis, and shes been doing that
since she was a kid. Even her after-school
routine revolved around practicing the sport.
Dallas Mavericks owner and famous Shark
investor, didnt take a vacation for seven
years when his company was just starting
up. Thats dedication.
You can find shortcuts for everything in life,

but you can never sidestep the hard work
required to build the foundation of your
goals.
10. Dont Break the

Chain!
Have you ever heard of the calendar method
supposedly created by Jerry Seinfeld?
Get a big calendar and a red marker, then

mark X on each day you work on your goal
or habit.
In two weeks, youll have a long chain

showing your progress. It will motivate you to
keep going, too.

Dont Get Too Excited!

I hope you dont get too excited and apply all
these habits at once. That will drive you
crazy.
Instead, pick the easiest habit for you, and

then do it for 3-6 months until it becomes a
natural part of your routine. After that, check
back here to pick another one.
Use the 1st habit as an anchor to prompt you

into doing the new habit youre trying to
master.
For example, the first habit you mastered is

waking up early and now youre trying to
exercise regularly.
Your habit formula can look like this: After I

wake up at 6 AM, I will jog for 30 minutes.
This works well because waking up early is
strongly programmed into your brains
neurons, so stacking another habit to it
leverages the existing neurons fast and
steady connection.

I know many people who feel they are
successful and who others regard as
successful who dont do most of the stuff
here and others who are not successful
by any definition who do most of it.
Like with any list the 80/20 principle is
relevant here.
I would wager that 80% of their success
would be attributed to
1. Get going on a key priority every day
(probably 40% of the value of the list)
and see it through in a reasonable time.
2. Clear their minds and meditate
(another 25% of the value of the list)
3. Have a networking ritual (phone,
coffee, dinner parties, etc.) i.e. they
have a way of maintaining a network of
at least 30 important relationships.
4. Connect with family and friends (hey
some successful people arent even
married and dont have kids)
5. Not wasting money. No $30 lunches
everyday. No Ubers to the office. Cut
your car insurance to $25/month (check
InsurancePanda), cut gas to less than
$50/month (check Gasbuddy and drive a
light car), and look to TMobile for
cellphone ($20/month).
6. Exercising. At least a leisurely walk.
You dont have to do an Ironman
competition, but some light exercise
really makes you feel better and gets the

I would add one that is kind of not on the

list. And that is they tend to have an
attitude that focuses on what they want
and not on what they dont want, and that
recognizes and appreciates the good
stuff that they have in their lives.
I would also say that working hard and
getting up early are not it. Unless you are
a professional 9 to 5 staffer whos boss is
measuring your output by the number of
reports you file on time.
