Many of us often wonder why we don't seem to get as much done as we would like to. Sometimes we even get angry with ourselves over it and no matter how hard we try or how many tasks we take on we just can't seem to be nearly as productive as we would like to be. In order to shed some light on why this may be the situation, below you will find the three most common attributes that the most highly successful and highly productive people all possess. Act Instantaneously In order to really succeed, you must act on anything that needs to be done, instantly. You must act instantaneously. Everyone has great ideas and important things that they need to get done. Unfortunately, many of us put off acting on our great ideas or diving into important projects simply because it requires a sharp jolt of mental and physical exertion to get started. We say things like "I'll do it later, maybe tomorrow, or after I take care of some other things right now." Some of us actively work to try not to think like this but it happens to every single one of us and it absolutely kills our productivity. When our mind starts to think this way, we should condition ourselves to DO the exact opposite; after all, action supersedes the thought of action. Great ideas and important products alike must be acted on immediately. This turns the person into a doer. More than any other factor, acting instantaneously is what separates those who succeed from those who stagnate. Buzzing Out When you decide to take action on a project and start concentrating on whatever task is at hand, after a short while your mind will become unfocused, it simply buzzes out. This is a completely natural process but in many cases, forever prevents the completion of whatever project you are working on. The reason for this buzzing out is because most of us are not accustomed to continuous hard thinking. It was once said by the founder of Firestone Tires, Harvey Firestone, that "There is no limit to the extent a person will go to avoid hard thinking." Instead of avoiding hard thinking, you should aggressively dive into hard thinking whenever and wherever you find the opportunity. Initially, when hard thinking you will find any possible way to sabotage yourself and look for a reason to become unfocused. However, being aware of your buzzing out, you will now remember to pause, re-focus your concentration, and then push forward with a strong burst of energy and tenacity which will knock the buzz out from your brain! Once you can positively identify when you are buzzing out it becomes easy to defeat, and similar to the way you feel fat burning when you exercise, you can actually feel yourself teaching your brain to remain focused for longer periods of time. The more it "hurts" the more motivated you become, and with practice your thinking capacity will increase enormously. Drive To Completion The mark of someone who achieves many great things is that he or she will always drive to the completion of ANY task at hand. This type of person does not relent until the task is complete. This type of mentality encompasses a lot. The main qualities you need to exert this type of mentality are both action and hard thinking. The most valuable people in any organization are the ones who do not hesitate to dive into an area of work and drive those areas until they are completed. Many times driving a task until it is completed will open up new areas of work during the process, which must also be completed in order to complete the main task, and many normal people experience an "energy stop" at this point. Energy stops are mental barriers that a person feels against moving into a new area of work. Energy stops occur when people cease exerting the effort needed to complete whatever task is at hand. In contrast, a person who exhibits a "drive to completion" attitude can never be stopped by energy stops and always does whatever needs to be done in order to complete the original objective. A "drive to completion" person will always have important tasks sent their way, and they never stop growing as an individual. All successful people exert a drive to completion intensity and it is literally impossible to keep a person of this type down. Discover a way where you can implement these strategies to build an extremely lucrative business for yourself with none of the overhead of traditional business, and skyrocket your quality of life. http://www.MaverickMoneyMentorship.com ------------------ ARTICLE END ------------------ [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
