Success needs clues and we are here to help you find them.
Today’s clue is provided to us by American billionaire investor, businessman and former real estate attorney Charlie Munger.
Charlie Munger provides us with 10 rules for success today and he starts off with one of the most important principles for success and that is to be great at life-long learning. If we are in a state of constant learn, we will have a huge advantage in life’s success.
The second rule that Charlie imparts today is to be able to ensure that we get what we want, is to ensure that you deserve what you want, this means putting in the effort and hard work and paying the price that most are not willing to pay.
Thirdly we must ensure we are competent in our niches in life, but not only to be competent, but also to have a sense humility, don’t allow arrogance to get the best of you.
Fourth learn to let go of resentment, do not allow other people’s actions to dictate your character and integrity, resentment doesn’t deserve your energy and can lead to obstacles seen rather than opportunity.
Fifth, we must take care of our own mental health, be fully present in the moment and intentional with our actions, be kind with your self-talk and give yourself permission to succeed and fully encompass your successful habits.
Sixth Charlie Munger reminds us to define what success is to us, find your burning desire and be willing to pay the price in order to accomplish that success.
Seventh is to always implement applied faith, the faith you have in yourself, the faith you have in your ability to achieve as well as the faith that every intentional act and every day that you have bettered yourself, will lead to your inevitable success. This will in turn create trust, from the trust that others have in you to complete a task to the trust that your family will have in you and not to mention the trust you have in yourself.
Eighth is to learn, learn from all the struggles, obstacles and challenges you face, never let them define who you are, but always understand the lesson they have taught. Once you have learnt the lesson, apply the knowledge and always being moving with positive growth.
Ninth, we must never give up, always keep going. Have your dream, goal and burning desire in your minds eye and keep going, take action, move and do it now. Start with what you have to do what you can to obtain your success.
And the tenth rule that Charlie provides us with today is to always have a gratitude attitude, the more grateful we are the more positivity and opportunity will flow in our live. However, the attitude which you approach each and every day will have a tremendous impact on the success of that day, be optimistic, be positive and handle each challenge within stride.
By implementing these 10 rules into our daily agendas and cultivating our success habits, Success will be the only outcome.
