Highly Successful People Don’t Happen by Accident

Rebecca Appleton • 19 November 2019

Being successful at anything is often a combination of different situations, hard work, relevant personal attributes and even timing or luck. But some people have success written into them, coded into them. These people are successful because they live a lifestyle and possess the personal traits that set them up naturally to succeed in the tasks they set themselves toward.

Here are 3 of the day-to-day habits of highly successful people which are well worth adopting as you move forward with our Business-In-A-Box solution to set up your own successful mobile app development agency:

Organization

There is a certain level of drive to organised people. Many are quite happy going with the flow and always looking and thinking about the bigger picture. But highly successful people are the types who plan their days because they know they need to get the most out of their most important and limited commodity, their time.

Some of the most successful people are those who can effectively plan ahead and prioritise their time effectively. Try setting yourself a to-do list for the following day before you go to bed. Wake with a list of items you need to accomplish throughout the day and stick to it. You’ll never know how productive you could be until you try it.

Action Orientated

Planning and prioritising is great, it’s always good to have a plan of action. But without the ‘action’ part it’s all a bit useless thinking about what you need to do and not really doing it. Successful people act on their tasks and more often than not they act quickly and decisively where others might procrastinate or find excuses not to get started.

Highly successful people will be driven by the need to move forward even if not entirely comfortable because they want to see progress and can’t stand to see a task sit idle. Don’t run before you can walk, but make sure you at least take those first steps.

Networking Natural

For some networking is a chore or something which feels outside the comfort zone. Highly successful people thrive when surrounded by other successful, innovative and driven people. Networking will feel like part of the journey to success and not a chore. They will take inspiration from others rather than seeing them exclusively as competition.

According to Forbes magazine over 75% of successful people spend in excess of 5 hours networking with new people every month. So perhaps it’s time to notch up your numbers and get amongst the fray a little more.
