Do you want more success at work or in life?

Then it may be easier to achieve than you think.

After years of pursuing personal excellence and talking to talented people in different fields, I began to identify the habits that propel people to excellence.

These habits are not born with you. They are habits that anyone can develop. If you practice them regularly, becoming outstanding is not an elusive thing.

Check out seven of the best of them.

1 Have the “endpoint” you want

If you don’t know what the endpoint you want to reach is, then there is no way to get there and it’s hard to find the way forward.

Imagine getting into a taxi. What is the first thing you have to do when getting in a taxi? Maybe you will greet the taxi driver, then what? Are you going to tell the driver where you are going so that he can take you there?

Similarly, you need to know what your goal is. You must develop a clear “site” for the goals you want.

These “sites” can be places that you pass through for a certain period, and only after passing through these places can you finally get to where you want to go.

2 Do what you like

When you do what you like, it gives you unlimited fuel to move forward. This desire is greater than doing anything else.

For example, I insist on writing articles on the Internet every day, even if I am tired after work, I will write hundreds of words. If you don’t write that day, I will always feel that you have done something less, and feel like you are “something owed”.

Ask yourself: What would you like to do?

If you are not sure what your passion is, what do you want to try most at the moment? If you could choose to do anything, what would it be?

Your enthusiasm and interest will be the driving force to push you towards excellence.

3 Have the determination to work harder than others

I don’t know who has achieved outstanding results, but they will lack their hard work. After all, an important part of excellence is diligence, dedication, and hard work.

We can simplify the process of action and choose effective strategies and steps, but in the end, we still need to make hard work.

It is worth noting that efforts must be “practical”. Don’t give up all things in life to work hard, and don’t work hard only once a month.

Keep in mind that working small but constant for your goal every day will achieve greater results than if you work hard all at once or work hard once in a while.

The premise is that you have to know how to turn this effort into your habit.

4 Make good use of every moment

Time is important. Good people know that the cost of time is very precious.

As I grew older, I became more aware of the importance of time. I would always think, if I realized it earlier and acted earlier, I might be better now!

But there is no way. People will never be able to get awakened and wake up to certain things before a certain point in time. So the only thing that can be done is to try to grasp the remaining time.

Of course, it is not to say that you use your time so extreme that you “won’t sleep and eat.” Because making the most of every moment also means knowing when to rest well and when to regain energy.

This combination of work and rest will allow us to take a longer road in the pursuit of excellence.

5 Act to achieve results

Living an excellent life means that we have to be champions of action.

If we are to grow and achieve outstanding results, we need to take equivalent actions to achieve the results we want.

To be able to calm down and act, you have already surpassed many people.

What kind of score can you make for your ability to act?

If not, improve your execution!

6 Keep upgrading yourself

As the saying goes, “learning is endless.” We can always do something to make ourselves better.

Today, you may have excellent skills and knowledge, but no matter how good these skills and knowledge are, you need to combine the actual situation and constantly upgrade yourself.

Yes, good people are always learning, reading, exposing themselves to new knowledge, new friends, new environments, and developing their skills.

Similarly, we need to always maintain self-upgrading to achieve excellence.

7 Seek feedback

Of course, no matter how hard we try to learn and improve ourselves, we will have blind spots.

Blind spots are about ourselves, but we don’t know about it, and we can’t improve these things that we don’t see.

At this time, we must know how to seek feedback! Seeking feedback is one of the fastest and most effective ways to improve. As long as you can value everything you do and collect feedback.

Feedback is to find the direction of adjustment. If there is no feedback, you don’t know where to improve yourself, because you feel that you have worked very hard and did it very hard.

So, when you do anything and want to make better progress, don’t ignore feedback.

I hope these habits I share can help you achieve excellence in life. As long as all of us practice them, we can achieve excellent results and make ourselves better.
