Every highly successful person has unique habits and traits that set them apart and make them successful. Most people think that these things are some big secret or rare talent that these people have.  In reality, many of the things they do are simple or incremental, but they add up over time.  If you can do 10 things just a little bit better than everyone else, it makes a BIG difference.

​Here are 10 incredibly simple lifehacks of highly successful people.
  1. They ask for what they want.  Amazingly, most people miss or don't take the opportunities to ask for what they want in life.  Highly successful people practice this simple hack daily.  Next time you find yourself thinking, "I wonder if they would do this?" or "I should ask X..."  do it.
  2. They focus on the things they can control.  Highly successful people have learned that wasting time and energy worrying about things they cannot control is unproductive.  Instead, the spend the bulk of their energy on the things they can control and in which they can have an impact.
  3. They don't say "I can't."  Instead they ask "How?"  Saying "I can't" stops the mind.  It kills creativity.  By asking "How?" you activate the mind and the creative process unleashing ideas and thoughts to solve problems and help you succeed.
  4. They focus.  The highly successful discipline themselves to focus and see tasks through.  In other words, they don't multi-task and are much more productive because of it.
  5. They have a strong, unbreakable "Why" for their purpose and mission.  Highly successful people don't do things just to do them.  They do things that they are passionate about, but have a strong  "why" that drives them to succeed.  This allows them to overcome the setbacks, barriers, and roadblocks that get in their way.
  6. They value experiences over things.  Highly successful people...are successful and thus can have all the material things they want.  But, they know that the most important things in life are the experiences they have with family, friends, and those in their businesses.  Experiences provide great memories and life lessons that can be used throughout their journey.  Material things are fleeting.
  7. They show gratitude.  Highly successful people are grateful for the help and gifts that they receive on their journey.  They take time to show their gratitude and thanks.
  8. They follow up and follow through.  Highly successful people do what they say they will.  They follow up and follow through on what they commit to.   You can count on them.
  9. They keep an open mind and don't pass judgement until they understand and have the information to make an informed decision.  They are not impulsive.
  10. They take risks.  This doesn't mean they don't calculate them or understand the potential consequences, but they do realize that in order to grow and reach new levels, they need to continue to seek opportunity and take on risk to get there.
