Be A Good Psychopath And Achieve More Success
Now I'm reading his book called the Wisdom of Psychopaths.
The point is, there is actually a lot we can learn from psychopaths.
Another interesting thing I learned is that a lot of successful entrepreneurs, salesman, presidents, policemen, lawyers, and doctors have a lot of traits you would find in a typical psychopath.
People think psychopaths are just freaky crazy people that don't belong in society, but that doesn't change the fact that psychopaths have some character traits that we could use to achieve success on life.
However, the key is to harness the good traits of psychopaths and stay as far away as possible from the bad traits.
Here are 7 Psychopath traits that will benefit you on your journey to success
- Charm - Ability to communicate with people and attract them with your words.
- Ruthlessness - Willing to stand for something and not compromise until you get what you want or get your point across (you can be ruthless while still being ethical, just don't do anything illegal, or immoral)
- Fearlessness - Ability to embrace fear and do what you have to do despite the feelings of fear
- Mental Toughness - Ability to manage your emotions and your state in tough times
- Focus - Ability to make a decision or choice and keep your eye on the target despite daily distractions
- Willingness To Fail - Awareness of the potential of failure, embarrassment, or any other negative emotion but still having the willingness to take action despite the possibility of failure. (If you're willing to fail and act in spite of failure, you will achieve success faster)
- Action Taker - Ability to stop thinking and over-thinking and just take the first step, then the second step, and so on and so forth until you reach your goal
If you're lacking any of these traits, make an effort to start developing these traits daily.
Think about some successful people that you admire, I guarantee they have at least 6 out of the 7 traits I just listed.
