The Wealthy Make Success Look Easy! 8 Steps So You Can To!

By Hayley Weatherburn

I have discovered, after much research in self-development and Life Coaching, 8 similar behaviours between the successful entrepreneurs and those making all the money. If these 8 action steps are followed daily and consecutively - there is no doubt in my mind that success will come your way!

MASTERMIND THE WEALTHY / SUCCESSFUL-Read the books about those idols you want to be like - whether it Oprah Winfrey, Donald Trump or Richard Branson. Actually write down what you believe are their Values are, and the daily activities they do, that got them to where they are. Once you have them - do them! Copy the behaviours of a lazy person - what do you get? Lazy! Copy the behaviours of a successful person what do you get? Successful!

PICTURE - Olympic athletes visualise winning their race 100's of times before actually doing it. What this does it creates a neural pathway in the mind of what it believes has happened, so when faced with the actual event, the mind can tell the rest of the body what it is supposed to do. Science has proven this increases chances of success, wealthy entrepreneurs do the same. Give it a try - visualise yourself as a successful entrepreneur - focus on what is happening around you, how you feel, what you say, how you hold yourself and what you hear. Do this daily, and it won't be long until you find it a reality.

GOALS - Although these seem easy and not relevant - they actually are imperative to success. I mean you can't get to a desired destination in a car, without first thinking of where you want to go. Success as an entrepreneur is the same, and the more specific you are with your goals, the higher chance you have of success. It is also a good idea to have short, medium and long term goals. When writing them down, don't focus on HOW you are going to get there, that will come, just on where you want to go.

ACTUAL ACTIVITIES THAT PRODUCE INCOME - Yes, this may seem obvious, however it is imperative to the success of your venture! And, let's be honest here, how many of you have actually procrastinated and done the organising of office activities, instead of the marketing and advertising, because it was easier and you just wanted to "get it out of the way". Write down a list of 10 things that you can do daily that will actually bring money into your business. For example: marketing calls, advertising and meeting with clients. Once you have written your list make sure you do at least 2-3 of these EVERYDAY, then watch the money roll in!

BELIEVE - Believe and expect that you will be successful. Expectation is a powerful tool when it comes to the law of attraction. How many times have you expected (to the core of your belief) something to happen, and it did - or vice versa. Expect your success and it will happen!

ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE - Focusing on what you have, will only attract more to what you have. Focusing on what you don't have, will attract more of the feeling of lack. Whenever you start feeling that you are focusing on being broke, or on not having enough - stop, and write down ten things you are grateful for. This will shift the energy that you are sending out and help you to re-focus. The more positive you are, you start to notice more positive things and attract more of what you want.

CONSTANTLY DEVELOP - Plug yourself into self-development programs, read books on improving yourself in finance, personal, health, relationships, business, etc. The more you continuously grow the more open to opportunities and success you become. The top entrepreneurs and successful people are always learning, growing and developing new ideas from what they learn.

PERSEVERANCE - Commitment and perseverance is key to surviving obstacle and actually arriving at your goal. Vow now that you will never give up until your goals are achieved. With commitment like that, you have no other choice but to succeed, not matter what is thrown in front of you.

Follow these 8 behaviours daily and I guarantee you will be successful in your own right! Good luck, I can't wait to hear about you one day, and to learn from you!
