3 Success Habits You Can Start Today

The habits we have in our lives shape us, our lives, and our success.  I once asked Zig Ziglar's son, Tom Ziglar, "What is the fastest way to success?"  His answer was, "The fastest path to success is to replace a bad habit with a good habit."  It's that simple.  You pick a bad habit, replace it with a good habit, and then cement.  You can then move on to the next.  Think about if you did this multiple times in the course of a year - where would you be?  You'd be in a completely different place that you are today.

So, with all that said, here are 3 habits you can start doing today that will make a major difference in your life.

Journaling

You've no doubt heard about the power of writing things down and journaling.  Many of the most successful people in their fields do this every day.  Why?  Because it works.  When you write things down and get your thoughts out of you on paper - it helps you to crystalize them and get them in order so they aren't just bouncing around in your head.  Taking 5-10 mins a day to write your thoughts down will help you be better organized, know what to prioritize, help you to know yourself better, and help you be more successful.  My favorite tool for helping someone do this is the 5 Minute Journal.  It makes it easy by giving you the structure, so you don't even have to think.  And it takes 5 minutes to do each day!  Click Here to Get a Copy! 

​Consistent Sleep

This is an easy.  Start going to bed and waking up at the same times each day.  Set your times and adhere to them, even on weekends if you can.  Studies have shown that your quality of sleep directly affects your energy levels and mental capacity.  By going to bed and waking up at the same times each day, you create a habit of consistency for your body and its sleep rhythms that will help you be more rested, have more energy, and be more alert and on your game each day.

Commit to Personal Growth

You know this one, but it bears repeating because you can do it today.  They say you are the sum of the 5 people you hang out with.  I like to take that further by saying you are not just the sum of those you hang out with, but of the books you read and the things you put into your mind.  And if you don't take the time to put anything into it, you cannot learn, grow, and get better.  If you want to increase your success levels, you must grow yourself.  Start small - pick one new book to read a quarter.  Then maybe one per month, and go from there.  Listen to podcasts like the Misfit Entrepreneur or take courses on things like Udemy.  Whatever you do, commit to a personal growth plan.  As Jim Rohn said, "Formal education will make you a living, self-education will make you rich!"
