9 Things to avoid doing this 2020 | February 8, 2020
Every year we come up with our New Year’s Resolution base on what we desire for ourselves, our goals and for our loved ones- may it be friends or family. But most of the time we fail. It’s not that we are not good enough rather maybe there are things we usually do that cause those resolutions be unfulfilled.
If you want to achieve what you’ve never achieved before, you have to become who you’ve never become before.
So here are 9 habits that you must avoid if you want to be richer and successful:
Stop making excuses. Aside from dreaming for a better life we must pursue and quit negative self talks like excusing yourself on ”Why you are, who you are.” Keep your eyes focused on the things that you can change and what you can do instead of emphasizing on what is wrong around you. “Decide on what you want no matter what it cost you.”
Stop comparing yourself to others. We are all born unique with our distinct characteristics. You are insulting yourself by comparing yourself to others. Know who you are and strive to become a better you. Your greatest competitor is yourself. “You will achieve success and be richer if you strive to become a better YOU.”
Stop wasting T I M E. Time is money. Instead of wasting your time scrolling on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram why not read books? Or if you’re not a fan of books you can try watching educational videos on YouTube. Follow sensible pages that can contribute to your knowledge. Thus, this might help in your growth, intellectually and psychologically. You may also consider lessening the usage of social media and use the time to do things that makes you creative and productive. “We are fond of wasting our most valuable asset, which is TIME. Let’s convert it rather to knowledge, skills and wealth.”
Stop expecting big capital. If you can’t start small, then you can’t start at all. Many are hesitant to launch their own business because they thought that they need a lot of money to commence. But “if you want to change your financial life then you must be willing to chase your goals with whatever you have from wherever you are.”
Stop expecting a map. Life is unpredictable. It is important that we know what we want in life — our goals and dreams. But the journey towards what we want is not like a physical map where the start and finish is already there. So we need to prepare and get our hands dirty. Have faith in God and do what is right in order for us to arrive in our desired destination.
Stop the disbelief. Build your self-trust and stop the negative self talks. We must develop confidence in ourselves in order for us to get going. Take risks and believe that God will direct your path. Ask for wisdom and guidance in everything you do. So stop doubting your strength and trust yourself. Get out and make things happen! “It is the lack of faith that makes us afraid of meeting challenges.”
Stop expecting people to treat you well. We can’t change other people’s behaviors but we can decide on how we react. If you always need other people’s approval then you’ll end up being hurt. It’s a bad strategy to expect that people should be nice to you because most humans are not nice at all. So it is better to focus on your character instead. Be brave and kind.
Stop expecting miracles from the government. You must not rely on the government for it is not their obligation to make you rich and successful but yours. You must take full responsibility on your financial standing nad life as a whole. Work hard and smart.
Stop being afraid of failure. Everyone is subject to fail but some people won’t give up. They choose to stand up whenever life knocks them down. They strive hard and work wisely to realize winning. Failure is a choice. “Do whatever you should do ever if it scares you.”
Success is a combination of Hard Work, Attitude and Passion.
There is no easy way to success. One must experience hardships and lots of things must be sacrificed but when you really want something, you’ll endure all the pain and sufferings because Hard work pays off and all things worth having won’t come easy.
