SUCCESS HABITS

Habits are what we do continuously over a long period of time and therefore it becomes a part of us. Though, we do not decide our destiny directly, we decide on our habit.

Habits determine our character, and our character determines our destiny. We can therefore conclude that good and godly habits birth success. Success comes when you achieve your objectives or set goals. But for a Christian success is the achievement of God set goals for our lives.

Success goes beyond material acquisition. If you must perform better in life you need to consistently upgrade yourself, let your habits be consistent with your destiny.

Destiny is from the word destination. Many are too bothered about their destiny while they ignore habits, it’s so easy to get to your destination but what sustains you is habit.

It’s your thought that forms your words, and your words determine your actions, your actions determine your habits and your habits finally become your character. Your character either makes you or destroys you.

If you don’t make conscious efforts to change your old or bad habits, cultivating new ones would be difficult. How do you cultivate a new habit?

MEDITATION:

Meditation gives birth to revelation. Meditation is been able to think deeply and reflect . It means to be thoughtful of something, to roll things over in thought. If you are too busy to think you are too busy to succeed.

RESPONSIBILITY:

Responsibility comes from the two words ‘’response’’ and ‘’ability’’ which means ability to respond. You have to take 100% responsibility of your life. Responsibility is the key to true freedom.

SELF IMPROVEMENT:

Self improvement is adding value to your life. And one of the major ways to self improvement is reading.

Through reading you can access the mind of great men. Whatever your profession is or heights you get to in life, there’s always something more you do not know. You need to keep improving yourself to stay relevant. Once you stop learning, you start dying.

POSITIVE TALK:

What do you say about yourself? Your life will move in the direction of your confessions. What forms your confessions is determined by what you eat. What you watch, what you listen to, what you read etc. All of these form the content of your dominant thoughts which then translates to your speech. So ask yourself “What am I eating” because Input invariably corresponds to output. Practice selective viewing and listening so that you can control what you say because your world is controlled by your words.



ACTION ORIENTED:

You must be action oriented. God designed the world such that nothing moves until you move. You don’t get rewarded for what you are planning to do; you only get rewarded for what you have done. Be somebody who always carries out his action. Action delay is destiny delay.

PERSISTENCE:

Develop an attitude of not giving up until you get your desired result. When you persist you soon reach a gush out.

PRAYER:

Prayer is one of the essential keys to success.

Success rates in life largely depend on what you do. Bad habits are easy to form but hard to live by, good habits are hard to form but easy to live by. Be consistent on your newly formed good habits over the old or bad ones because good habits will promote your success rate.

‘’Human beings are creatures of habits.’’
