13 Things You Should Give Up If You Want To Be Successful ”Somebody once told me the definition of hell: “On your last day on earth, the person you became will meet the person you could have become.” — Anonymous Sometimes, to become successful and get closer to the person we can become, we don’t need to add more things — we need to give up on some of them. There are certain things that are universal, which will make you successful if you give up on them, even though each one of us could have a different definition of success. You can give up on some of them today, while it might take a bit longer to give up on others. 1. Give Up On The Unhealthy Lifestyle “Take care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live.” — Jim Rohn If you want to achieve anything in life, everything starts here. First you have to take care of your health, and there are only two things you need to keep in mind: 1. Healthy Diet 2. Physical Activity Small steps, but you will thank yourself one day. 2. Give Up The Short-term Mindset “You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.” — Mae West Successful people set long-term goals, and they know these aims are merely the result of short-term habits that they need to do every day. These healthy habits shouldn’t be something you do; they should be something you embody. There is a difference between: “Working out to get a summer body” and “Working out because that’s who you are.” 3. Give Up On Playing Small “Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone, and as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” - Marianne Williamson If you never try and take great opportunities, or allow your dreams to become realities, you will never unleash your true potential. And the world will never benefit from what you could have achieved. So voice your ideas, don’t be afraid to fail, and certainly don’t be afraid to succeed. 4. Give Up Your Excuses “It’s not about the cards you’re dealt, but how you play the hand.” ― Randy Pausch, The Last Lecture Successful people know that they are responsible for their life, no matter their starting point, weaknesses, and past failures. Realising that you are responsible for what happens next in your life is both frightening and exciting. And when you do, that becomes the only way you can become successful, because excuses limit and prevent us from growing personally and professionally. Own your life; no one else will. 5. Give Up The Fixed Mindset “The future belongs to those who learn more skills and combine them in creative ways.” ― Robert Greene, Mastery People with a fixed mindset think their intelligence or talents are simply fixed traits, and that talent alone creates success — without effort. They’re wrong. Successful people know this. They invest an immense amount of time on a daily basis to develop a growth mindset, acquire new knowledge, learn new skills and change their perception so that it can benefit their lives. Remember, who you are today, it’s not who you have to be tomorrow. 6. Give Up Believing In The “Magic Bullet.” “Every day, in every way, I’m getting better and better” — Émile Coué Overnight success is a myth. Successful people know that making small continual improvement every day will be compounded over time, and give them desirable results. That is why you should plan for the future, but focus on the day that’s ahead of you, and improve just 1% every day. 7. Give Up Your Perfectionism “Shipping beats perfection.” — Khan Academy’s Development Mantra Nothing will ever be perfect, no matter how much we try. Fear of failure (or even fear of success) often prevents us from taking an action and putting our creation out there in the world. But a lot of opportunities will be lost if we wait for the things to be right. So “ship,” and then improve (that 1%). 8. Give Up Multi-tasking “You will never reach your destination if you stop and throw stones at every dog that barks.” ― Winston S. Churchill Successful people know this. That’s why they choose one thing and then beat it into submission. No matter what it is — a business idea, a conversation, or a workout. Being fully present and committed to one task, is indispensable. 9. Give Up Your Need to Control Everything “Some things are up to us, and some things are not up to us.” — Epictetus, Stoic philosopher Differentiating these two is important. Detach from the things you cannot control, and focus on the ones you can, and know that sometimes, the only thing you will be able to control is your attitude towards something. Remember, nobody can be frustrated while saying “Bubbles” in an angry voice. 10. Give Up On Saying YES To Things That Don’t Support Your Goals “He who would accomplish little must sacrifice little; he who would achieve much must sacrifice much; he who would attain highly must sacrifice greatly.” — James Allen Successful people know that in order to accomplish their goals, they will have to say NO to certain tasks, activities, and demands from their friends, family, and colleagues. In the short-term, you might sacrifice a bit of instant gratification, but when your goals come to fruition, it will all be worth it. 11. Give Up The Toxic People “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” ― Jim Rohn People we spend the most time with, add up to who we become. There are people who are less accomplished in their personal and professional life, and there are people who are more accomplished than us. If you spend time with those who are behind you, your average will go down, and with it, your success. But if you spend time with people who are more accomplished than you, no matter how challenging that might be, you will become more successful. Take a look at around you, and see if you need to make any changes. 12. Give Up Your Need To Be Liked “The only way to avoid pissing people off is to do nothing important.” — Oliver Emberton Think of yourself as a market niche. There will be a lot of people who like that niche, and there will be individuals who don’t. And no matter what you do, you won’t be able to make the entire market like you. This is entirely natural, and there’s no need to justify yourself. The only thing you can do is to remain authentic, improve and provide value every day, and know that the growing number of “haters” means that you are doing important things. 13. Give Up Your Dependency on Social Media & Television “The trouble is, you think you have time” — Jack Kornfield Impulsive web browsing and television watching are diseases of today’s society. These two should never be an escape from your life or your goals. Unless your goals depend on either, you should minimise (or even eliminate) your dependency on them, and direct that time towards things that can enrich your life.

13 Things you should give up to be Successful

”Somebody once told me the definition of hell:

“On your last day on earth, the person you became will meet the person you could have become.” — Anonymous

Sometimes, to become successful and get closer to the person you can become, you don’t need to add more things — you need to give some of them up.

There are certain things that are universal, which will make you successful if you give up on them, even though each one of us could have a different definition of success.

You can give up on some of them as soon as today, while it might take a bit longer to give up on others.

1. Give Up On The Unhealthy Lifestyle

“Take care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live.” — Jim Rohn

If you want to achieve anything in life, everything starts here. First, you should take care of your health, and there are only three things you need to keep in mind:

Quality Sleep

Healthy Diet

Physical Activity

Small steps, but you will thank yourself one day.

2. Give Up The Short-term Mindset

“You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough. ” — Mae West

Successful people set long-term goals, and they know these aims are merely the result of short-term habits that they need to do every day.

These healthy habits shouldn’t be something you do; they should be something you embody.

There is a difference between: “Working out to get a summer body” and “Working out because that’s who you are.”

3. Give Up On Playing Small

“Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone, and as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

— Marianne Williamson

If you never try and take great opportunities or allow your dreams to become realities, you will never unleash your true potential.

And the world will never benefit from what you could have achieved.

So voice your ideas, don’t be afraid to fail, and certainly don’t be afraid to succeed.

4. Give Up Your Excuses

“It’s not about the cards you’re dealt, but how you play the hand.”

― Randy Pausch, The Last Lecture

Successful people know that they are responsible for their life, no matter their starting point, weaknesses, and past failures.

Realising that you are responsible for what happens next in your life is both frightening and exciting.

And when you do, that becomes the only way you can become successful, because excuses limit and prevent us from growing personally and professionally.

Own your life; no one else will.

5. Give Up The Fixed Mindset

“The future belongs to those who learn more skills and combine them in creative ways.” ― Robert Greene, Mastery

People with a fixed mindset think their intelligence or talents are pre-determined traits that cannot be changed. They also believe that talent alone leads to success — without hard work. But they’re wrong.

Successful people know this. They invest an immense amount of time on a daily basis to develop a growth mindset, acquire new knowledge, learn new skills and change their perception so that it can benefit their lives.

Who you are today is not who you have to be tomorrow.

6. Give Up Believing In The “Magic Bullet.”

“Every day, in every way, I’m getting better and better” — Émile Coué

Overnight success is a myth.

Successful people know that making small continuous improvement every day will be compounded over time and give them desired results.

That is why you should plan for the future, but focus on the day that’s ahead of you, and improve just 1% every day.

7. Give Up Your Perfectionism

“Shipping beats perfection.” — Khan Academy’s Development Mantra

Nothing will ever be perfect, no matter how much you try.

Fear of failure (or even fear of success) often prevents you from taking action and putting your creation out there in the world. But a lot of opportunities will be lost if you wait for things to be right.

So “ship,” and then improve (that 1%).

8. Give Up Multi-tasking

“Most of the time multitasking is an illusion. You think you are multitasking, but in reality, you are actually wasting time switching from one task to another “

— Bosco Tjan

Successful people know this.

That’s why they choose one thing and then beat it into submission. No matter what it is — a business idea, a conversation, or a workout.

Being fully present and committed to one task is indispensable.

9. Give Up Your Need to Control Everything

“Some things are up to us, and some things are not up to us.” — Epictetus

Differentiating these two is crucial.

Detach from the things you cannot control, focus on the ones you can, and know that sometimes, the only thing you will be able to control is your attitude towards something.

Remember: nobody can be frustrated while saying “Bubbles” in an angry voice.

10. Give Up On Saying YES To Things That Don’t Support Your Goals

“He who would accomplish little must sacrifice little; he who would achieve much must sacrifice much; he who would attain highly must sacrifice greatly.”

— James Allen

Successful people know that in order to accomplish their goals, they will have to say NO to certain tasks, activities, and demands from their friends, family, and colleagues.

In the short-term, you might sacrifice a bit of instant gratification, but when your goals come to fruition, it will all be worth it.

11. Give Up The Toxic People

“Stay away from negative people. They have a problem for every solution.”

— Albert Einstein

People you spend the most time with add up to who you become.

If you spend time with those who refuse to take responsibility for their life, always find excuses and blame others for the situation they are in, your average will go down, and with it your opportunity to succeed.

However, if you spend time with people who are trying to increase their standard of living, and grow personally and professionally, your average will go up, and you will become more successful.

Take a look at around you, and see if you need to make any changes.

12. Give Up Your Need To Be Liked

“You can be the juiciest, ripest peach in the world, and there’s still going to be people who hate peaches.” — Dita Von Teese

Think of yourself as a market niche.

There will be a lot of people who like that niche, and there will be individuals who don’t. And no matter what you do, you won’t be able to make the entire market like you.

This is completely natural, and there’s no need to justify yourself.

The only thing you can do is to remain authentic, improve and provide value every day, and know that the growing number of “haters” means that you are doing remarkable things.

13. Give Up Wasting Time

“The trouble is, you think you have time” — Jack Kornfield

You only have this one crazy and precious life. That’s why you owe it to yourself to see who you can become, and how far you can go.

However, to do that, you need to ditch meaningless time wasters and stop allowing them to be an escape from your most important goals.

To do that, you should learn how to take control over your focus, attention and make the most out of your 24 hours within a day.

Remember that you will die, so never stop creating your legacy and doing the things that will enrich your life.

13 Things You Should Give Up If You Want To Be Successful

Somebody once told me the definition of hell:

“On your last day on earth, the person you became will meet the person you could have become.” — Anonymous

Sometimes, to become successful and get closer to the person you can become, you don’t need to add more things — you need to give some of them up.

There are certain things that are universal, which will make you successful if you give up on them, even though each one of us could have a different definition of success.

You can give up on some of them as soon as today, while it might take a bit longer to give up on others.

1. Give Up On The Unhealthy Lifestyle

“Take care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live.” — Jim Rohn

If you want to achieve anything in life, everything starts here. First, you should take care of your health, and there are only three things you need to keep in mind:

Quality Sleep

Healthy Diet

Physical Activity

Small steps, but you will thank yourself one day.

2. Give Up The Short-term Mindset

“You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough. ” — Mae West

Successful people set long-term goals, and they know these aims are merely the result of short-term habits that they need to do every day.

These healthy habits shouldn’t be something you do; they should be something you embody.

There is a difference between: “Working out to get a summer body” and “Working out because that’s who you are.”

3. Give Up On Playing Small

If you never try and take great opportunities or allow your dreams to become realities, you will never unleash your true potential.

And the world will never benefit from what you could have achieved.

So voice your ideas, don’t be afraid to fail, and certainly don’t be afraid to succeed.

4. Give Up Your Excuses

“It’s not about the cards you’re dealt, but how you play the hand.” ― Randy Pausch, The Last Lecture

Successful people know that they are responsible for their life, no matter their starting point, weaknesses, and past failures.

Realising that you are responsible for what happens next in your life is both frightening and exciting.

And when you do, that becomes the only way you can become successful, because excuses limit and prevent us from growing personally and professionally.

Own your life; no one else will.

5. Give Up The Fixed Mindset

“The future belongs to those who learn more skills and combine them in creative ways.” ― Robert Greene, Mastery

Who you are today is not who you have to be tomorrow.

6. Give Up Believing In The “Magic Bullet.”

“Every day, in every way, I’m getting better and better” — Émile Coué

Overnight success is a myth.

Successful people know that making small continuous improvement every day will be compounded over time and give them desired results.

That is why you should plan for the future, but focus on the day that’s ahead of you, and improve just 1% every day.

7. Give Up Your Perfectionism

“Shipping beats perfection.” — Khan Academy’s Development Mantra

Nothing will ever be perfect, no matter how much you try.

So “ship,” and then improve (that 1%).

8. Give Up Multi-tasking

“Most of the time multitasking is an illusion. You think you are multitasking, but in reality, you are actually wasting time switching from one task to another “ — Bosco Tjan

Successful people know this.

That’s why they choose one thing and then beat it into submission. No matter what it is — a business idea, a conversation, or a workout.

Being fully present and committed to one task is indispensable.

9. Give Up Your Need to Control Everything

“Some things are up to us, and some things are not up to us.” — Epictetus

Differentiating these two is crucial.

Detach from the things you cannot control, focus on the ones you can, and know that sometimes, the only thing you will be able to control is your attitude towards something.

Remember: nobody can be frustrated while saying “Bubbles” in an angry voice.

10. Give Up On Saying YES To Things That Don’t Support Your Goals

“He who would accomplish little must sacrifice little; he who would achieve much must sacrifice much; he who would attain highly must sacrifice greatly.” — James Allen

Successful people know that in order to accomplish their goals, they will have to say NO to certain tasks, activities, and demands from their friends, family, and colleagues.

In the short-term, you might sacrifice a bit of instant gratification, but when your goals come to fruition, it will all be worth it.

11. Give Up The Toxic People

“Stay away from negative people. They have a problem for every solution.” — Albert Einstein

People you spend the most time with add up to who you become.

However, if you spend time with people who are trying to increase their standard of living, and grow personally and professionally, your average will go up, and you will become more successful.

Take a look at around you, and see if you need to make any changes.

12. Give Up Your Need To Be Liked

“You can be the juiciest, ripest peach in the world, and there’s still going to be people who hate peaches.” — Dita Von Teese

Think of yourself as a market niche.

There will be a lot of people who like that niche, and there will be individuals who don’t. And no matter what you do, you won’t be able to make the entire market like you.

This is completely natural, and there’s no need to justify yourself.

The only thing you can do is to remain authentic, improve and provide value every day, and know that the growing number of “haters” means that you are doing remarkable things.

13. Give Up Wasting Time

“The trouble is, you think you have time” — Jack Kornfield

You only have this one crazy and precious life. That’s why you owe it to yourself to see who you can become, and how far you can go.

However, to do that, you need to ditch meaningless time wasters and stop allowing them to be an escape from your most important goals.

To do that, you should learn how to take control over your focus, attention and make the most out of your 24 hours within a day.

Remember that you will die, so never stop creating your legacy and doing the things that will enrich your life.

Good Luck as the journey is a good one

13 COISAS QUE VOCÊ DEVE ABANDONAR SE QUISER SER BEM-SUCEDIDO

Alguém me disse uma vez a definição do inferno: “no seu último dia na terra, a pessoa que você se tornou vai encontrar a pessoa que você poderia ter se tornado.”- Anônimo

Às vezes, para ser bem-sucedido, não precisamos de mais coisas, precisamos desistir de algumas.

Mesmo que cada um de nós tenha uma definição diferente de sucesso, existem certas coisas que são universais, das quais se você desistir será mais bem-sucedido.

Algumas delas você pode abrir mão hoje, outras podem demandar mais tempo.

1. Abandone estilos de vida que não sejam saudáveis.

“Tenha cuidado com seu corpo. É o único lugar que você tem para viver.”- Jim Rohn

Se você quer alcançar qualquer coisa na vida, tudo começa aqui. Primeiro, você tem que cuidar de sua saúde, e há apenas duas coisas que você precisa ter em mente:

Dieta saudável

Atividade Física

Passos pequenos, mas você vai agradecer a si mesmo um dia.

2. Abandonar a mentalidade de curto prazo.

“Você só vive uma vez, mas se você fizer isso direito, uma vez é suficiente.” – Mae West

Pessoas bem-sucedidas estabelecem metas de longo prazo e sabem que esses objetivos são meramente o resultado de hábitos de curto prazo que eles precisam fazer todos os dias.

Hábitos saudáveis não devem ser algo que você faz: devem ser algo que você é.

Há uma diferença entre: “Malhar para ter corpo de verão” e “Malhar porque é quem você é.”

3. Não pense “pequeno”.

“Pensar pequeno não serve ao mundo. Não há nada de brilhante em se encolher para que outras pessoas não se sintam inseguras perto de você. Todos nós devemos brilhar, como as crianças. Não está apenas em alguns de nós, está em todos, e quando deixamos nossa luz brilhar, inconscientemente damos permissão a outros para fazer o mesmo. À medida que nos libertamos do nosso medo, nossa presença automaticamente liberta os outros. “- Marianne Williamson

Se você nunca tentar e aproveitar grandes oportunidades ou permitir que seus sonhos se tornem realidade, você nunca vai perceber o seu verdadeiro potencial.

Além disso, o mundo nunca se beneficiará com o que você poderia ter conseguido.

Então dê voz às suas ideias, não tenha medo de falhar e certamente não tenha medo de ter sucesso.

4. Abandone suas desculpas.

“Não é sobre as cartas que você tem, mas como você joga elas.” – Randy Pausch, The Last Lecture

Pessoas bem-sucedidas sabem que são responsáveis por suas vidas, não importa o seu ponto de partida, fraquezas e falhas do passado.

Perceber que você é inteiramente responsável pelo que acontece em seguida na sua vida, é assustador e excitante.

No entanto, é a única maneira que você pode alcançar o sucesso, porque as desculpas nos limitam e impedem de crescer pessoalmente e profissionalmente.

Possua sua vida. Ninguém mais o fará.

5. Desista da mentalidade fixa.

“O futuro pertence àqueles que aprendem mais habilidades e conseguem combiná-las de maneiras criativas.” – Robert Greene, Maestria

Em uma mentalidade fixa, as pessoas acreditam que sua inteligência ou talento, são simplesmente traços fixos e que talento sozinho gera sucesso – sem esforço. Eles estão errados.

Além disso, as pessoas bem-sucedidas sabem disso. Elas investem uma imensa quantidade de tempo para desenvolver uma mentalidade de crescimento, adquirir novos conhecimentos, aprender novas habilidades e mudar sua percepção, para que isso possa beneficiar suas vidas.

Lembre-se: quem você é hoje, não é quem você tem que ser amanhã.

6. Abandone a crença na “Bala Mágica”.

“Todos os dias, em todos os sentidos, eu estou ficando cada vez melhor” – Émile Coué

O sucesso de um dia para o outro é um mito.

Pessoas bem-sucedidas sabem que fazer pequenas melhorias contínua a cada dia, será agravado ao longo do tempo, e dará os resultados desejados.

É por isso que você deve se planejar para o futuro, mas com o foco no dia seguinte, e melhorar apenas 1%.

7. Desista do perfeccionismo.

“Se mover é melhor que ser perfeito.” – Kahn Academy’s Development Mantra

Nada será perfeito, não importa o quanto tentemos.

O medo da falha (ou mesmo o medo do sucesso) nos impede frequentemente de agir e de pôr nossa criação no mundo. No entanto, muitas oportunidades serão perdidas se esperarmos que as coisas sejam certas.

Então, navegue e depois melhore (aquele 1%).

8. Desista de ser multitarefa.

“Você nunca chegará ao seu destino se parar e jogar pedras em cada cão que ladra.” – Winston S. Churchill

Pessoas bem-sucedidas sabem disso. É por isso que elas escolhem uma coisa e em seguida, passam a perseguir seus objetivos. Pode ser uma ideia de negócio, uma conversa ou um treino.

Estar plenamente presente e comprometido com uma tarefa é indispensável.

9. Desista da sua necessidade de controlar tudo.

“Algumas coisas dependem de nós e algumas coisas não dependem.” – Epictetus, filósofo estóico

Diferenciar estes dois é importante.

Separar-se das coisas que você não pode controlar, e concentrar-se naquelas que você pode, e saber que às vezes, a única coisa que você será capaz de monitorar é a sua atitude em relação a algo.

10. Desista de dizer SIM para coisas que não levam aos seus objetivos.

“Aquele que pode realizar pouco deve sacrificar pouco. Aquele que pode alcançar muito, deve sacrificar muito. Aquele que pode alcançar níveis muito altos, deve sacrificar grandemente.”- James Allen

Pessoas bem-sucedidas sabem que para alcançar seus objetivos, terão que dizer NÃO a tarefas, atividades e demandas de seus amigos, familiares e colegas.

Em um curto prazo, você talvez sacrifique um pouco de gratificação instantânea, mas quando seus objetivos começarem a dar frutos, vai valer a pena.

11. Abandone pessoas tóxicas.

“Você é a média das cinco pessoas que você mais convive.” – Jim Rohn

As pessoas com quem gastamos mais tempo somam-se a quem nos tornamos.

Há pessoas menos ambiciosas e há pessoas mais ambiciosas do que nós. Se você gastar tempo com aqueles que são menos motivados do que você, sua média vai cair e com ela, o seu sucesso.

No entanto, se você passar o tempo com pessoas mais avançadas do que você, não importa o quão desafiador que possa ser, você será mais bem-sucedido.

Dê uma olhada em si mesmo e veja se você precisa fazer alguma mudança.

12. Abandone sua necessidade de ser apreciado.

“A única maneira de não se chatear com as pessoas é não fazer nada importante.” – Oliver Emberton

Pense em si mesmo como um nicho de mercado.

Muitas pessoas vão gostar desse nicho, outras pessoas não e não importa o que você faça, você não será capaz de fazer todas as pessoas gostarem de você.

Isso é totalmente natural, e não há necessidade de fazer nada para se justificar.

A única coisa que você pode fazer é continuar sendo autêntico, e saber que o crescente número de pessoas que o odeiam significa que você está fazendo coisas importantes.

13. Abandone sua dependência de redes sociais e televisão.

“O problema é que você acha que tem tempo” – Jack Kornfield

O vício de ficar na internet e assistir televisão é a doença da sociedade de hoje.

Estes dois nunca devem ser uma fuga de sua vida ou seus objetivos.

A menos que seus objetivos dependam deles, você deve minimizar (ou eliminar) a sua dependência sobre eles. Além disso, dirija esse tempo para coisas que podem enriquecer sua vida.
