Are you curious about the secrets of exceptionally successful people? Today, we’ll discuss three essential habits for achieving success. Use these insights to bring small but significant changes to your life.
1. Strive for Growth.
Success lies in the process rather than the result. As emphasized in Woong-Jung Son’s book “I Read, Write, and Discard,” true effort comes from daily accomplishments. When we take one step towards our dreams and goals every day, even if it’s not immediately visible, we are growing.
The author also emphasizes that the passion for growth can only be stopped by death. If you are making consistent efforts every day, you are already on the path to success.
I, too, read, write, and create content every day. Sometimes I feel like giving up, but knowing that I am growing keeps me going. Growth is an undeniable truth for everyone.
2. Embrace Repetition.
The journey to success is far from glamorous. This is why we respect athletes who repeat the same actions every day. Repetition is an essential component of success. I’ve tried various sports, and overcoming the monotony of repetitive training was never easy.
Success is no different. Repeating the same tasks every day may be boring and tiring, but growth and progress come from that repetition. Overcome the boredom with a clear sense of purpose. When you have a clear reason for what you’re doing, repetition becomes less tedious.
I, too, find reading or writing tedious at times, but clarifying my reasons for doing so revitalizes my motivation. Don’t fear repetition, and keep striving.
3. Have the Courage to Start.
Courage is essential for success. Like Woong-Jung Son’s story, we need the courage to move forward instead of making excuses. His story of knocking on the doors of the football association to send his son, Heung-Min Son, to study in Europe despite their poor circumstances inspires many.
When I first started my blog, I was ridiculed by many. However, I had the courage to start, and now it’s a site that inspires many. If you have the courage to take the first step, the path ahead will naturally open up. Start something right now.
I started with an old laptop that barely opened editing programs. The important thing is to start. [Have the courage to take the first step. Whether it’s planning, shooting a test video, or writing a blog post, just start.
Conclusion
To summarize the three habits of exceptionally successful people: consistent effort for growth, overcoming boredom with repetition, and having the courage to start. These three habits are things we can all practice. I hope you achieve exceptional success through these habits.
