3. Successful people have no fear of failure. But unsuccessful people do. Successful people have the resilience to face up to failure to learn lessons from it and adapt.
4. Learn from failure and mistakes. Coming back from failure teaches resilience, and resilience is the one quality all successful people have in common.
5. Self-aware: Self-awareness is an essential asset in living out your purpose with confidence. Self-awareness can lead to more effective communication, stronger relationships and increased creativity and productivity.
6. Higher priority to health: Leading a life of success comes from doing the right things. It starts with making choices based on “bone-deep, intuitive goodness. One thing that most successful people have in common, is an uncompromising attitude about fitness and exercise.
7. Good listener. Successful people are good listeners because they understand how input from their environment can be critical, crucial, and central to the strategy of their businesses, careers and lives.
8. Good reader. For many of the most successful people alive, reading is not just a hobby; it's a way of life.
9. Excellent observer. Highly successful people are always open to unexpected opportunities. They are crystal clear on why they do things, and they view every problem as an opportunity.
10. Honest and loyal. Successful people follow a simple model of behaviour that leads to lasting and loyal professional relationships.
