Good question Trey. Mine is similar to yours. Each day, I take time to review my day - what I did well, where I could have done better. I don't beat myself up when I get it wrong, just be honest about it. And I celebrate my small successes.
My other major success habit is to spend time, every day doing something that inspires me. That way, I am inspired whenI go about my business and others catch the buzz.

Mine personally is taking risks, in other words, i always go for the: READY, FIRE, AIM instead of just going for READY, AIM............ And forget to FIRE. hehe!

I'm also motivated by this new free ebook I got about taking and managing risks and how it can affect our lives and successes in our business.

I want to share it with you too so you can read and download the free ebook. Download the free ebook here: http://bit.ly/areyouatrisk

So now are you willing to take risks? Read and download the free ebook. It's very inspiring.

For me it is really dealing with success and failure as well as positivity and negativity. Things can go from success to failure very fast and it is weathering that storm and addin more and more success, daily as possible. The more you add the longer it stays.

I get up at 4am everyday with a couple of people I live with before they head off to work/school and we sit at the dining room table and read something positive to set ourselves up for the day. We each keep a blank journal so we can take notes on what we are reading and do some self reflection. We'll sit there, read and journal for 45 minutes. At the end of the 45 minutes, we will each take turns about what we have learned from what we read. Then, we each go on with our day. We do this daily exercise during the week to hold each other accountable. We are weak in our natural selves and so it helps to have a "mastermind" group or friends who can hold you to the things you say you want to do. It has been so helpful to me. I can share my struggles and get positive feedback and get "spurred on" to do the "grunt work" to help me get to where I want to go. We are each devoted to helping each other achieve our goals.

For me, my success habit is envision and work. Don't stop work until what I envision is in vision!

Mine's kind of unique in it's own way:
- I picked up journals and planning from trading.
- I use meditation everyday as well as mental exercises to develop better focus and concentration. This greatly increases my productivity, creativity and efficiency.
-I'm also a fanatic of consciously but carefully instilling beliefs into your subconscious. This gets rid of a lot of obstacles you would have to overcome manually while instills new values that eliminate limiting beliefs that could be holding you back.

Here's how I personally reach my subconscious:
I understand that all beliefs are a result of conditioning and our conscious alone is what determines what we believe; our conscious is the gateway to our subconscious. I also know that once your subconscious believes, your work is done. We are people of being not doing.

With this in mind, I know for that once I believe something I will become it. I'm incredibly driven by logic and I feel that this is the factor that actually helps me the most in programming my subconscious.

I know that everything I've ever come to believe is through pure coincidence and conditioning and that I can control what comes in and out.

After logic my method is this. I only listen carefully to the most experienced and powerful people in human history. What they passionately believe, I will give my attention to.

So in other words, I first understood how the mind works then instilled and believed the underlying principles and values that have created and generated the greatest of all time. Here's why: if Napoleon the Great believed the same thing as Benjamin Franklin, it more than likely has validity.

The rest takes care of itself.

--I'm studying this current approach(but not yet applying this) at subconscious-secrets.com. It's very applicable and very cheap($37 is nothing given the value) if you'd like it. I'm making no money of these sales : 0 -- This is what I'm going to use inf the future.

As far as mental exercises go:
I bought reading genius by one of my favorite gurus Ed Strachar(he's studied and learned from some amazing people). It's very good and I just go through an hour or two of exercises in the gym a day. The results are incredible but it's a fairly expensive course.

I read things that make me think but what I still interesting (SI, Accelerated learning, Quantum Physics, ect.)

Meditation is invaluable in this area as well.

Also, I have a practical exercise that I use too throughout my day. This will rshow great value after just a few short weeks. Here it is: Take a coin or something else metallic and/or shiny. Then focus completely along the EDGES of that object and try to move it with your mind. Do this exercise 5 times/week for a half hour every day and you'll boost your IQ up 5-15 points! Your benefits will be much greater than IQ though

Hope this helped!

This is my favorite exercise from a product designed to purely develop your IQ. This was one of the least effective exercises from this standpoint so if figured there wasn't much harm in sharing it. However, it came without the drawback of degeneration if you decide you no longer want to do it.

And honestly, I'm not sure how much it has improved me because it isn't the only exercise I use to develop my focus. However, I used it a week before I started my routine and it helped me a good amount. I started thinking more clearly and decisively which ultimately boosted my confidence in the decisions I made. I can't say for sure but this may have been the exercise that put everything in motion for me.

If you try the exercise and end up liking it the product this came from is The Complete Guide to Genius. It's amazing. It has some very advanced techniques Einstein used as well a great exercise to boost creativity into a new level. There's a detailed explanation of how to use each exercise too.

Incredible product that think I'm going to put to full use this summer.

taping your goals and listening to them first thing in the morning and last thing at night, hanging around peoples that are where you want to be

Trey, I have a good understanding of image streaming and it's incredibly powerful. There are different exercises, styles, and techniques. Einstein and Edison used this frequently. This will boost your IQ to ridiculous levels and there is only one drawback but don't take it lightly. IF YOU CHOOSE TO USE IMAGE STREAMING, YOU CAN'T STOP USING IT. If you loose interest it will take a toll on you mentally and you might end up worse than you started at an accelerating rate. If you don't mind image streaming everyday than I strongly encourage it. Just make sure your committed to it. It's a lot of fun and I used it on accident for a while. Personally when I stopped using it as an exercise because of reading

Trey thanks for your comments and the smile. Not wanting to live with regret is the thing that moves me to face my fears.

I am not concerend about what other people say, I don't mind looking foolish, but I don't want to look back on my life and regret never doing a thing, never taking a chance, never seizing an opportunity. I do feel fear but what I feel about regret outweighs it every time.

Hi Trey...

One of them is certainly keeping a private journal...

Whether I build my body or maintain a site, this help me a lot.

One of the main things is never give up on something if you know that it will make you money. This is the main reason why people fail is because they give up

Trey, I just wanted to tell you thanks for your appreciation towards everyone's advice. You're a very good learner

Trey, I have one more suggestion for you.

Pick up "The Law of Success" by Napoleon Hill. This is an incredible book. Just make sure you completely understand each principle before you move on to the next. It takes patience, persistence, and a good amount of time(months) but you'll reap rewards. That I can promise you. Powerful knowledge is presented in this work. It's rumored that this book alone has created the most millionaires of all time and I would not be at all shocked at this was a fact.

Trey check out this thread. You might find it helpful

Hard work is my habit for the success and Strict dedication at work.

Do the most important thing first thing in the morning. So, whatever makes you the MOST money, spend the first 2 hours on it, in the morning.

Hello Trey,

Nice question. Well you done well to improve your success habits.
I don't write my daily work any where actually its not my habit. I just analyze at the end of the day that what and how many works i have done in the whole day and what mistakes i have done during my work. Then i plan for my next day work and also think that the mistakes that i have done earlier not repeat that again.



Regards,
Olivia

i think is work smart and consistent

This is a great thread!

Personally I agree with everyone who has mentioned a journal - both in terms of keeping track of your 'to-do' list, and writing down ideas or thoughts.

Here is something I do regularly (from time to time until I have a break and start doing it again - I need to keep it up a little better): Everyday in the morning write three pages in a notebook. The key is to let your writing flow, and write whatever pops into your head. That could simply be 'I don't know what to write' or 'should I have pasta for dinner' - literally anything.

I am honestly so much more productive when I make a point to do this. I also try not to read back what I write for a long time, as sometimes it becomes a way for me to write out any negative thoughts so I can forget them. I will read them back sometimes after 6+ months and it's great to see how I felt back then!

Ruth, thanks for the post (: I found it quite useful.

I use my Journals strictly as review and they are sometimes structured(Just depends on my mood I guess.)

I use visualization to help me with my productivity but I'm sure that free writing a daily journal about the day ahead will really help with getting me excited and motivated for the day ahead!!

Thanks Again

Great thoughts here,

Here's mine that helped me move my projects forward much faster...

- Turn off the TV
- Consume less media (facebook, blogs, feeds, sites, movies ... forums etc.)

I figure less distraction simply equals more action :-)

Cheers.

Ya, this forum is really putting a damper on my productivity lol
I should probably get back to work :rolleyes:

Writing a list of what is to be accomplished the night before really helps.

Also I use a timer for lots of stuff like working on projects, eating etc. Sometimes if I feel like I've been behind lately I'll write down the entire day what I'm doing every 15 minutes or so and review it at the end of the day. It's enlightening when you see you spent 1 hour + eating lunch while browsing the warrior forum. Setting a timer for say 30 or 40 minutes and staying focused on that project is great. I can feel the twitch come on to check my email or stats again, but then remind myself to wait until the timer is up.

Another trick is to use the timer to accumulate only the time you work during the day. So when I'm working on something I have the timer on.. if I get up and walk away from the desk, receive a package or whatever, I pause it then see how many hours at the end of the day were spent being productive.

But sometimes you need some kind of inspiration. "Distractions" can also be inspriring at times.

So I suppose you got another source of inspiration?

That was the first thing that came to my mind as well. There's probably some productivity increasing potential for us distracted beings.

This idea with the timer sounds kinda cool. Especially to figure out how other habits and activities interfere with your productivity.

That's a nice way for dealing with customers Matt. And it should be really effective in the long run because of the extra trust it causes.

And customers will love you for it.

The strange thing is, that if you treat customers as numbers, they seem to behave like numbers or statistics. Unemotional, ruled by chance, silent, independent.

If you however treat them as human beings they behave like human beings. They might like you, communicate with you and be bound to you in an emotional way.

I agree with most of the posts. To add my bit, "beware of the acres of diamonds". Make sure you have a clearly defined work schedule with deadlines set and anytime another so called "opportunity or diamonds" comes along, I asess whether it fits into my plan. If not, it's gone.

Focus on what gives you the best results and stick to that along with your mindset stuff.

Steve

I just stopped by, and love this forum... so positive!
My personal success habits, are daily accountability of my actions.

I keep a daily "to do" list on my desk and go through each task throughout the day. I put a check mark on each as I complete them.

When one task takes longer than I'd anticipated (i.e. if I get stuck building a blog or have writer's block), I either leave the task for the next day (especially when other tasks need to be done immediately), or keep on working on it and leave one or two of the other tasks for tomorrow, which I add to my "to-do" list for the next day.

I do this daily and I get this benefits from this habit:

- It keeps me focused.
- I waste little or no time (prevents me from getting distracted too long on the net.)
- I get organized.
- I accomplish much more (allows me to multi-task.)
- I'm able to see my progress on paper (good for my self esteem :-)

Wishing you success,
Tammy

"Scheduling seems to be very effective to increase success. However, focusing is one strange thing, for I totally don't know what's the perfect balance between trying out new things and sticking to the things that give you good results."

Trey, it's crucial you stick with a routine for a while but in the same sense this could really increase your learning curve.

It's a tricky one but just set aside a time maybe once or twice a week where instead of implementing a good portion of your routine you study the people who are the best(most successful) and most knowledgeable at what they do Find the people in your area of focus and get rockin.

The guys who study for decades(or the kids that study a large portion of them.) are THE only people I choose to learn from. This narrows down your focus by not listening to every acclaimed guru. This will help with that balance in trying new things but keeping up a consistent schedule.

I'm still having a hard time with that balance myself :p There's sooo much to study. Sometimes I get too excited and leave off half way through a course or program. DON'T do that lol, unless it isn't providing enough value. It halts your progress exponentially over time if you really think about it.

Success requires having manifold strategies,but I will just mention two.One is my explanatory style and the second is my ability to concentrate.I do not usually see failures as the ultimate feedback,I see it as an opportunity to learn and I just keep going on.I see life as a movie,not a snapshot.I am also learning to focus intensely on my projects.I see a lot of people jumping from project to project,from WSO to WSO,without making full use of any.When we concentrate intensely we amplify our capacity to attract and see the full potential in our project.I thank everyone for sharing.The more we give the more we get.

For me its always keeping my focus on the bigger picture-the overall ultimate goal.

It helps me especially when it seemz iv been stuck at a particular point for a long while, because when i remember my reward at the end of the struggle, i get motivated again and just keep pushing for it.

The key is to always know what you are doing next and make sure that you have a strong plan of action. Make sure that your to-do list is always getting things crossed off of.
