Dr Happy Part 2
Psychologists have found time and time again that successful people tell themselves things on a daily basis.
They exhibit recurring habits and patterns of thought.
Here are some of them discussed by Dr Happy in this interview:
1.Get started even though you might fail
The author Jodi Picoult said, “You can edit a bad page, but you can’t edit a blank page”.
Successful people are able to just do.
2. Plan for obstacles not failure
Successful people know that obstacles will arise so they master skill sets that prepare them for the worst.
3. Know your intelligence type
Historically we have focused only on IQ but there are many forms of intelligence.
Find your own intelligence and work best to define that.
4. Be open, curious and willing to learn
The wisest people realise they don’t know much at all and successful people are on the look out for what they don’t know.
5. Forget your competition
The successful focus on those things that they have control.
6. Never Forget why you started
Successful people look for meaning and purpose.
Go back to what you were passionate about when you were younger and look to your heroes, they represent something in you.
