I think we all should practice these habits. Specially working more on our “priorities”.

Also, I’d like to add a few more:

– They are generally a good listener
– They value their wealth
– They are calm

Thank you very much! I want to mindfully cut back on busy work, to get to do the things that matter.

I am blessed to have found this site. Going thru a painful breakup which didn’t make any sense. There were many clues it wasn’t ever going to be a good fit, yet as they say “Love is Blind.” It was like two people driving 100 MPH that was heading straight for a cliff.
My customer and dear friend sent me your link: 10 Wake up calls we often receive too late in life. It was so thoughtful it filled my heart with joy and optimism. Realizing friends and family can never be substituted.

These 5 minute lessons are wonderful and I am grateful to be part of the team. I spread these lessons. (Not on social media so I cannot just hit a button).

Thanks for the inspiration and yes now I am getting my ass in trouble at work because I am thinking clearly and a good head space. It isn’t the first time. HA! Always stand up for what is right. Corporate America doesn’t like it in today’s environment. This has come from me and changes within. This lesson is so spot on I had to say, “Thanks.”

Wow, this may be your number 1 blog for the year. I totally agree with you on all points , especially the one about mentoring. I have had some great mentors both business and personal (mainly spiritual) and I am also serving as one to people in my field. I cannot stress how important it is to find a mentor- It will improve your life greatly.
I also love the closing section about just interning and exploring here- My faith tradition talks about this a lot.
Keep up the good work.

In reply to Lewis L. It's been awhile since I have read so much truth in one article - what a gift. I will definitely reboot myself, and forward it to a couple of my grands who are running in circles while life is passing them by. Thanks so much.

I’ve taken so much from this post, thank you, it reinforces several of my own thoughts and practices and has made me think about the way I think and act.

I agree with Sofia’s comment on building strong & lasting relationships and the time invested in doing this is perhaps my additional quiet habit that could e on this list.

Thanks for sharing such wonderful information here. I truly believe that “action” is the keyword for me. I have seen many knowledgeable and intelligent people rot away because of lack of action. When we make a habit of combine our ideas and goals with action, almost anything is possible. Personally, I’ve achieved so much one small step at a time.

Again, this essay is truly an eye opener and I will be sharing it on FB and Threads.

Thank you so much for posting this! It was nice to be reminded of how important a calming and conistent morning routine is. It’s something I’ve been working on.

Also, one thing I would add to this list is They create strong, lasting relationships. In addition to having mentors and coaches, successful people surround themselves with people who are like-minded and who are also doing everything else that’s on this list. They do this because they recognize that everyone is a teacher and because they recognize themselves as life-long students.

I loved the stretch and observe! It’ll be my new mantra:)

This post was so timely for me…thanks Angel!

I’m currently reading the book “Atomic Habits”. Today’s article from you truly added a great amount of value to what I’ve been reading. It’s true, people get stuck in the vicious cycle of “being in one’s comfort zone” and they are reluctant to get out of it as if to say that they are refusing to change. I’ve spent way too many years doing so and I hate myself for it. I think it’s time that I slapped myself in the face and let myself know that I’m wasting away as a human being. I need to change; I will change. And I know I can do it.

Excellent! I would like to add to #12. Not only is it important “to KNOW that they can’t possibly know it all”, in my opinion, you have to also be able to comfortably say “I don’t know. But let me see what I can find out.” I think a lot of people are aware they don’t know the answer to something, but they will fumble around trying to give an answer anyway because they cannot admit they don’t know. Be smart enough to let yourself be vulnerable and admit out loud that you don’t know. Then, successful people will also follow through….they will find an answer or find a place to refer the person to, where they can get the answer they need, or they will let the person know that they’ve researched it and have not found any answers.
So, KNOW you can’t possibly know it all, ADMIT that you don’t know it all, and FOLLOW THRU in your attempts to help someone find the answers they need.

What a great piece!

What resonates with me most today:
Consistent daily action
Journaling
Stretch and observe. There are plenty of mentors I know who have walked this path. I need to observe!

Thank you.

Yet another post packed with useful tips. Thanks Angel and Marc. With the current challenges I face running my family business, this post helps. #5 is the one I struggle with most – I always get waaaaay too comfortable with where I am and what I know.

Reading blog essays, emails, and books like yours for at least 15 minutes every day has become a habit of mine that has helped me stay focused and motivated to push past my comfort zone and get the right things done.

Oe of the best blog essays I’ve read all year. Inspirational, motivational, and totally practical. The point on journaling is something I want to get better at before the end of the year too.

Thanks.
