6 Daily Practices Commonly Utilized by Highly Successful People
Implement these (habits) into your life and see what happens!

Success shouldn’t be defined by one’s overall accomplishments or amount of money. Instead, success should be determined by the actions, thoughts, and decisions that we make on a day-to-day basis.
It’s easy to look at another’s overall accomplishments and think of their successes. Still, I’d like to challenge this way of thinking and instead encourage you to look at the actions we make each day rather than our overall achievements. For instance,
- Would you consider yourself successful if you had one million dollars? What if we threw in a massive drinking problem, relationship issues, and health complications due to bodily neglect? Would you consider yourself successful then?
- Imagine you’ve got three degrees, a fantastic job, and you‘re incredibly healthy. Would you consider that successful? Okay. Well, what if you spent your entire life studying to earn those degrees, all while neglecting friends, family, and the things in life that bring absolute joy? Would you consider yourself successful then?
I’m trying to prove a point here; even though somebody might have a wide variety of accomplishments under their belt or a large quantity of money, they still risk slipping into mediocrity unless they focus on maintaining positive habits.
But what sort of habits have the best possible chance at producing positive results? Below I’ve listed some practices that I believe to be the most common among genuinely successful people. Try incorporating at least one of these actions into your daily routine.
Focus On Your Why
Above all else, be determined, be intentional. It takes a daily mental check to be successful. You have to focus on your why. Success comes from intention. Nobody accidentally becomes successful in life. Success is not an overall amount of accomplishments but how you choose to live each day. So ask yourself,
- Why do you get out of bed in the morning?
- What’s the first thing you think about when waking up in the morning and the last thing you think about before going to bed?
