Why having a strong belief, being selfish and staying focused will help you achieve more

Most people want to achieve more than what they have achieved before. And to do that, you have to have a strategy and analyze from past experiences or mistakes. Otherwise, you may continue to do the same thing which have not brought you much success all this while.

3 of the most important factors which I believe will help you achieve more are the following:

1. Having A Strong Belief

Before you plan on reaching your goals to achieve more in whatever that is you are after, you need to strongly belief in it. Otherwise, there will come a time where events or people around you will cause you to wonder if what you are working on is achievable. Once that feeling creeps in, you begin to have self-doubt and your faith in what you are working on may crumble and you give up. What a waste of time and effort that will be.

Therefore, think carefully about what you want to achieve and question yourself if this is something that you really want to strive for and if it is something that will make a lot of difference in your life once you achieve it.

Once you have decided on it, create positive affirmations to keep yourself motivated and repeat these affirmations daily to keep your belief in it strong as you progress and move towards it.

2. Being Selfish

All of us only have 24 hours a day. No more and no less. So in order to achieve as much as possible, you need to use your time wisely. Don’t let others “steal” your precious time. Plan all your activities and do not let unexpected events derail your plan. Of course, you can adjust your activities accordingly around unexpected events. What I mean is not to drop any planned activity just to fit in an unexpected event. Remember your goals to achieve more. And to achieve more, you need to be very disciplined.

Plan family activities around your work. Being selfish does not mean neglecting what is important to you.

Take care of your health and get enough rest. Don’t work yourself to the ground at the expense of your physical or mental health. That is why planning and not letting other distractions steal your time is very, very important.

3. Stay Focused

This last point is somewhat related to the 2 earlier ones.

Once you have decided on what it is you want to achieve, stay laser-targeted to your goal. Do not let other events distract you. For example, if your goal is to earn X amount of money focusing of a particular part of your business, do not get distracted when you see a new “potential” business.

You can take note of it and consider it later. Do not research on it or read more about it. All these activities are just stealing your time away from what you should be focusing on.

Keep your mind focused on whatever activity you are doing at every point in time. If you are having a full time job, stay focused on your full time job during the time you are at work. Do not work on your side business. Do the same when you are at home and working on your side business. Do not let work interfere with it.

Achieve more by following the 3 tips mentioned earlier. You will be happier and become more successful once you have mastered these. Start doing this right away and I guarantee that you will achieve more and become more successful.
