Forty One Qualities Of Highly Successful People

Over the years I have studied closely, read books and asked questions about successful people and I have discovered very similar qualities among them. Some of these so called qualities can actually be seen as a habit and if you are a person who is really serious about being successful in life, these qualities are worth copying.

These qualities are outlined below..

They are hard workers. They understand the importance of hard work and that no lazy person can maintain a lasting success.

They are highly optimistic people. They search for and find opportunities where others may not find anything.

They are focused. They resist distraction at all cost.

They consciously and methodically create their own success while others wish for success to fall on them in their comfort zone.

They find a lesson where others see problems and failure.

They have complete control of the thoughts that enter into their mind.

They avoid complains. They see complains as a complete waste of energy.

They set high standards for themselves.

They ask the right questions. The ones that will put them in a productive, creative positive mindset and emotional state.

They live a humble life and constantly crave to remain humble.

They don't blame others for their mistakes. They take complete responsibility of their actions and outcomes.

They have the interest of others at heart. Rather than being selfish, they assist others and desire their well being.

They understand that having a fat bank account is not success. They have a balance. While they may be financially successful, they know that the terms money and success are not interchangeable.

They practice what they preach. The counsel they offer people can be visualized in their way of living. They don't say one thing and do another.

They have identified their core values (what is important to them) and they put all effort to live a life that is reflective of those values.

They have complete control over their emotions.

They don't wait for fate or luck to determine their future. They believe in and they are committed to consciously and actively creating their won best life.

They are very good communicators and consciously work at improving their communication skills.

They have a structured plan for their life and they work tirelessly to make that plan a reality.

They understand the importance of self discipline and self control in relation to success.

They are happy and excited to take the road less traveled.

They are resilient. Where most people will naturally give up, that's their starting point.

They take calculated risk: This involves financial, emotional and psychological risks.

They are generous and kind hear-ted. They take pleasure in helping others to achieve their goals.

They become exceptional by choice. We are all faced with life's shaping decisions on a daily basis but successful people make the decisions most people won't.

They know the right time for them to relax, enjoy themselves and have fun.

They put in the required effort to finish whatever they start. while so many people start things they will never finish, successful people get the job done even when it's no longer fun and the excitement is worn off.

They don't think about or discuss failure. While people are talking about their poor family background, lack of time and bad luck, they look for a way to succeed not minding all the challenges.

They consider their health to be of great importance.

They work tirelessly in being productive at all levels.

They are more interested in the effective than the easy. While others are interested in the easy route and look for the quickest way, they desire and look for the course of action which will produce the best result over long term.

They have great value for their integrity and do not dabble into things that will jeopardize their integrity.

They keep very few friends and have high standards in selecting their friends.

They don't invest their time or emotional energy into things they have no control of.

They easily admit their fault and apologize. They are not arrogant and they believe in their ability to love and to learn from others.

They like to physically keep fit and appear smart.

They are great and productive thinkers.

They are adaptable and they easily embrace change. While majority love comfort and the average lifestyle, they embrace the unfamiliar and love the extraordinary.
