The phrase ‘the early bird catches the worm’ isn’t lore–it has very real-world repercussions. Most millionaires (and, naturally, billionaires) get their game face on as early as 5:30am.

Start The Day Early 

The biggest marker of a person slated for success? The desire to keep learning. Only the arrogant truly believe they know everything there is to know. The people who know the most, however, always believe there is much more they don’t. Example: Former chairperson and chief executive officer of PepsiCo Indra Nooyi believes that no amount of questions is too many to ask. “I spend so much time on details that from the outside it can seem crazy,” Nooyi told Huxleў in a 2021 interview. “But the details are most important in the management of the organisation. So dig deep. Be curious.

Stay Curious

Even though they might seem like risk-takers in every possible way, most millionaires are creatures of habit. Their day usually follows a format; one that optimises for their time and productivity. From an early start to a set bedtime, to designated time for exercise, emails and down-time, most super-successful folks have their day charted out in advance.Mark Cuban has specified times for everything; from cardio to TV. Warren Buffet goes to bed at 10 pm every night, reading for about 30 minutes before sleeping at 10:45pm.

Make–And Follow–A Routine

‘Dream’ is a buzzword that is bandied about a lot in motivational speeches, but the most successful people know that the real distinction is not to have dreams, but goals. A dream is a general idea, a wish for something that you desire personally or professionally.A goal, however, is a clear feat you want to accomplish; and it comes with a path to getting that you need to create. Equally important is setting goals for yourself that are a challenge; that push you a few inches further out of your comfort zone each time.

Set Clear Goals

It takes a village to make a person successful, and anyone who’s got to the top of their field will back that statement up. Not to take away from the hard work of the millionaires that have risen through the ranks, but success is never a single-player game.As Dr. Majid Kazmi, CEO of uGen Group puts it, “It may sound paradoxical, but strength comes from vulnerability. You have to ask the question to get the answer, even though asking the question means you didn't know.”

Ask For Help

There’s a lot less that separates you from the average millionaire than you think. I mean, sure, it's a few zeros in your bank balance and a few vintage cars in your garage, but a lot of the people you admire right now started out not too far from where you are. 

Rewiring your thinking could be what makes you rich

5 mental habits of millionaires that will help you become successful

We might have observed and read about many great people’s stories, their struggles, and their journey. And whenever we read one, our minds might wander in the thoughts of how to reach our goals and how to achieve what they have.

Stories And Thoughts

Those successful people have achieved money, fame, and name by doing their work diligently. They love what they do that doesn’t mean they didn’t work hard to be where they are right now.All those successful people never prioritized money, fame above their work. They simply wanted to achieve great heights in what they do.

What is that skill?

This skill gives us the potential to ‘be us.'We all are in search of wealth and happiness. The moment we see someone wealthy and popular we desire to be them. Instead of desiring to be the next someone be the next you.This human skill gives us the desire to incorporate all the human values which in the long term helps us to achieve our goals.

15 Habits That Make You SMARTER Every Day

Focus is essential for getting work done to a high standard. The standard for focus and attention today, is so incredibly low that just by putting your phone on airplane mode for a few hours everyday, you will be far ahead of any competitionPhones are eliminating our ability to focus on important things for long periods.On average, we pick up our phones around 300 times per day, creating a destructive environment when it comes to our ability to focus on a specific task and perform deep work. Don't let anyone rob you of the most important thing that you have... your focus and your attention.

Using Airplane Mode

"When you're finally wealthy, you'll realise that it wasn't what you were seeking in the first place.... But that's for another day"

So many people work years and years spending 15 hour days of hard work, focused on one task.... but....never get close to 1 million dollars. This is really sad to see. But it doesn't have to be you. 90% of the time it is due to one thing. A poor vehicleSpending hours and hours on a task is a complete waste if the task is not ever going to achieve what you want. Choosing the right vehicle comes down to 2 factors. Either:<ul><li>Choose a vehicle where you can get paid a lot for the hours you put in (inputs don't match outputs)</li><li>Or, something where you can use leverage (code, delegation, outsourcing)</li></ul>

Choosing The Right Vehicle

“I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”

Having a clear head will allow you to make better decisions and think more clearly when working. Another huge benefit of this is the self-awareness that you can achieve throught these practices. Self-awareness will allow you to stop projecting your own personal emotions and insecurities while making important moves in life.When you are trying to make $1m, you will have many negative thoughts and doubts that without journalling/ meditation, won't be controllable-significantly hurting any progress

3 Habits That Made Me A Millionaire By 18

Seek wealth, not money or status. Wealth is having assets that earn while you sleep. Money is how we transfer time and wealth. Status is your place in the social hierarchy.

Seek Wealth

Understand that ethical wealth creation is possible. If you secretly despise wealth, it will elude you.

Ignore people playing status games. They gain status by attacking people playing wealth creation games.

You’re not going to get rich renting out your time. You must own equity - a piece of a business - to gain your financial freedom.

You will get rich by giving society what it wants but does not yet know how to get. At scale.

Pick an industry where you can play long term games with long term people.

The Internet has massively broadened the possible space of careers. Most people haven't figured this out yet.

Play iterated games. All the returns in life, whether in wealth, relationships, or knowledge, come from compound interest.

Pick business partners with high intelligence, energy, and, above all, integrity.

Don't partner with cynics and pessimists. Their beliefs are self-fulfilling.

Learn to sell. Learn to build. If you can do both, you will be unstoppable.

Arm yourself with specific knowledge, accountability, and leverage.

Specific knowledge is knowledge that you cannot be trained for. If society can train you, it can train someone else, and replace you.

Specific knowledge is found by pursuing your genuine curiosity and passion rather than whatever is hot right now.

When specific knowledge is taught, it’s through apprenticeships, not schools.

Building specific knowledge will feel like play to you but will look like work to others.

Specific knowledge is often highly technical or creative. It cannot be outsourced or automated.

Embrace accountability, and take business risks under your own name. Society will reward you with responsibility, equity, and leverage.

The most accountable people have singular, public, and risky brands: Oprah, Trump, Kanye, Elon.

“Give me a lever long enough, and a place to stand, and I will move the earth.” - Archimedes

Fortunes require leverage. Business leverage comes from capital, people, and products with no marginal cost of replication (code and media).

Capital means money. To raise money, apply your specific knowledge, with accountability, and show resulting good judgment.

Labor means people working for you. It's the oldest and most fought-over form of leverage. Labor leverage will impress your parents, but don’t waste your life chasing it.

Capital and labor are permissioned leverage. Everyone is chasing capital, but someone has to give it to you. Everyone is trying to lead, but someone has to follow you.

Code and media are permissionless leverage. They're the leverage behind the newly rich. You can create software and media that works for you while you sleep.

An army of robots is freely available - it's just packed in data centers for heat and space efficiency. Use it.

If you can't code, write books and blogs, record videos and podcasts.

Leverage is a force multiplier for your judgement.

Judgement requires experience, but can be built faster by learning foundational skills.

There is no skill called “business.” Avoid business magazines and business classes.

Study microeconomics, game theory, psychology, persuasion, ethics, mathematics, and computers.

Reading is faster than listening. Doing is faster than watching.

You should be too busy to “do coffee," while still keeping an uncluttered calendar

Set and enforce an aspirational personal hourly rate. If fixing a problem will save less than your hourly rate, ignore it. If outsourcing a task will cost less than your hourly rate, outsource it.

Work as hard as you can. Even though who you work with and what you work on are more important than how hard you work.

Become the best in the world at what you do. Keep redefining what you do until this is true.

There are no get rich quick schemes. That's just someone else getting rich off you.

Apply specific knowledge, with leverage, and eventually you will get what you deserve.

When you're finally wealthy, you'll realize that it wasn't what you were seeking in the first place. But that's for another day.
