By Mauro Libi Crestani. For some, success may be to build a sustainable business. For others, it means finding more time to spend with your loved ones. It may be graduating from a university or becoming a recognized artist or an athlete who breaks the records of time. No matter what your goals, there is a key that will help you achieve it: Creating habits. If you have had success in anything, you know that meant a lot of work behind the final result. Athletes like Michael Phelps or Rafael Nadal may be physically gifted, but did not become one of the largest in the world without thousands of hours of practice. Mark Zuckerberg built one of the most successful companies in the world - by establishing practices that have guided him along the way. Habits are vital for success, habits become routine. The value of cultivating good habits makes people succeed in what they are able to discipline themselves. One reason why many are unproductive and postpone the matter is that they are waiting to feel like doing a task. If we are waiting to feel "desire" to make a cold call or write the proposal spend our lives waiting. Usually that feeling of wanting never comes - unless and until it - has an important consequence. The way to pass the action is expected to create habits. Habits are just things you do not even have to think about. The less time we spend wasting time, energy and effort into making the most unproductive thinking. It is useless to think about doing something when you could be spending your time actually doing something. We must use our energy doing the things that matter. As already shown habits become routine. The routine increases efficiency and makes it easier to keep up with difficult or undesirable tasks. Experts say that the habits that bring better results are: Establishing an exercise routine Reading something of value every night before bed Arrive early for appointments Get up early (early enough to have a decent breakfast and take your time, instead of running out the door) Setting aside time each week to reflect on the lessons learned Praising his team or colleagues immediately for achievements Listen carefully to criticism before dismissing as flawed The wait before responding to an email to antagonize Leaving work at the same time every day Think before speak Of course, motivation is needed to start construction habits. But once it is established, motivation is not a problem. Strong habits become automatic. A word of caution. As good habits can lead to success, bad habits can be disastrous. And while experts agree that the time it takes to build and break free from habits vary due to many factors, it takes much longer to get rid of a habit than to build a new one. But that does not mean it's impossible to change bad habits, just takes longer to remove them. The implementation Reaching a goal requires hard work and perseverance. But no matter where you are trying to go, right habits will help you get the place you want to reach. Discover the habits that lead to your destination, and get going by Mauro Libi Crestani.
